ACS 4.2 Remote Agent on Server 2008 R2
Hello
We migrate our 2003 to 2008 R2 domain controllers and would like to know if the remote agents are compatible to run on 2008 R2. I saw the release notes that RAS have been tested on 2008 SP1 but not R2.
Can someone advise or confirm that RAS are supported on 2008 R2?
We are running engine Solution and the fix 4.2.1.15 4.2.1.15 - 1. RAS are the same version.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Well, it is a known bug of improvement:

ACS 4.2 Remote agent compatibility issues.
I did a little reading on the compatibility of remote ACS 4.2 with Windows 2008 R2 agent, and it seems that the only way out is to upgrade the ACS to 5.2. We have Cisco ACS 4.2 SE and I would like someone to confirm that I have installed what happens if the remote agent on a Windows 2003 server of Member rather than the 2008 R2 domain controller. Such a scenario will work?
Comments are appreciated.

Yes, here's what a bug documented with this CSCtg37183 information:
Excerpt from the previous link:
ACS 4.x does not support the Server 2008 R2 to AD. Symptom:
ACS 4.x does not support authentication to a back-end Server 2008 R2 Active Directory.
Conditions:
ACS 4.x
Windows Server 2008 R2 installed on the domain controller
ACS or remote agent installed on a member server in the environment (even if the Server 2003/2008)Workaround solution:
Install the ACS or the Remote Agent on a domain controller 2003/2008
Cisco does not support this scenario because sometimes work well other doesn't work at all, so nobody wants an unstable network right, unfortunately workaround doesn't help much. Although there is an ACS 5.2 trial version that you can test, let me know if I can get you the links.

The upgrade to Cisco ACS SE and Remote Agent
Hello
Currently we are upgrading the PDC to Windows Server 2008, Standard Edition R2.
I am little confused with information available for upgrade scenarios. Appearing on the current working versions.
Cisco ACS SE - version 4.1 Build 23 5 Patch 1
Cisco ACS Remote Agent version 4.2 (0.124)
The new operating system will work on 64-bit, I think that the current ACE SE and the remote agent can / must be upgraded.
My existing versions, give the possible scenarios of upgrade available for me. After that upgraded SE and Remote Agent should work for the 64 bit OS.
Thanks in advance!
Yes, it is not possible to upgrade the ACS ACS 5.2 existing to level 4.1. They are two different boxes run on a different platform.
Unfortunately ACS 4.x does not support windows 2008 r2.
5.2 ACS is the only option left, and you will need to buy a new box of seprate with the new licnese for this.

How to generate a report of the duration of the sessions remotely on windows server 2008 r2?
Hello
I have about 10 (local users, not domain) users who are loging in Microsoft Server 2008 R2 to use accounting and planning software (using RDS) remotely. I would like to generate a report for the time spent to see how many hours each of them had been registered. Ideally, I would like to see all of last year (2011). Is it possible to do? Thank you in advance!

Secure ACS unit and Remote Agents
Hello
We test Secure ACS 3.2 device and authentication against AD via remote agents. When two or more remote agents are registered with the device in the network menu, is the pretty smart device to try the second machine remote agent if she can't talk to the first? We tested this failover by stopping the service of the remote agent on the first domain controller where it has been installed. However, failover does not occur. We want to know if this failover is supposed to work, and if so what we need to do to make it work.

ACS any Version with Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit domain controller
Hi all
Is there any version of ACS is currently working with Windows Server 2008 R2 domain controllers?
Our server controls has recently upgraded domain controllers to 2008r2 and off 2003 servers. This did not our ACS 4.1.4 really happy.
I read now serveral messages about problems with the ACS and Server 2008r2 and hope to find a solution (not to mention that switching to LDAP, yukk).
Thank you

ACS currently cannot be installed on a server running Windows 2008 R2.
As an alternative, you can install ACS on a member server. Authentication
ACS uses the local machine net API authentication both compared to a 2008
R2 domain will work. The Remote Agent can also be installed on a 2008 R2
Server if you use devices.
If you install ACS on a member instead server here is how to configure services
to authenticate properly with the domain:

A remote agent sends multiple ACS journal.
Could you please show example of how to configure more ACS to a remote agent. I tried to add ConfigProviderHost in CSAgent.ini as follows:
ConfigProviderHost = 192.168.1.x, 192.168.2.x
But this isn't a job. The remote agent has not earned any newspaper.
I need to add the remote agent in the network menu or modify CSAgent.ini or...
Please notify.
Thank you.
Nash
Hi Nash,
I think you should level version of the ACS SE 4.2 (in your case).
And then upgrade your software to Remote Agent 4.2 and everything will work.
The problem is that the version a single agent (4.x) can not serve two distinct versions SE
You can use only a single hosting provider with more customers.
ConfigProviderHost = 192.168.1.1
Kind regards

Remote agent ACS could not start
Hello
I installed the agent remmote ACS for windows from the ACS 4.1 Update CD (the CD migration is not found). I followed the guide of installation and configuration of the remote agent. In the services window I assigned the user of services created in ad in the log on tab and I stopped the process. When I try to start a warning message is displayed that explains the process carried out and stopped. How can I solve this problem? the software is on the CD to upgrade not the right one?
Seems to be a permission problem. Make sure that this remote agent running Server account is part of the domain administrators group. If she is already using domain administrator account, then do use the local account. It should work.
Let me know how it goes
Kind regards

Thank you

http://www.metavero.comThe wording of the initial error "Version Check failed to Match" makes me think that it resembles something that I met once after the installation of a small tuft release. You must ensure that the Agent installed on the remote computer is the same version as the controller.
for example if you had installed on machines both controller and agent and then improved OATSv9.00 JUST OATSv9.01 the controller controller would be able to talk to the agent on the remote computer v9.00.
I could be wrong, but that's essentially what I found with one of the v8 improvements as soon as possible.
Try to upgrade the agent on your machines remotely with the same setup you have on your controller (but only to install the agent, not the paclage of whole OATS).

Upgrade ACS 4, 1 - question of Remote Agent
I've updated Cisco ACS 3.2 to 4.1. Having satisfied certain issues, we finally got installed. Now, we are facing this problem of the remote agent. There is a lot of configuration to do for this agent? Here is the part of the instructions. I know right what they want me to. Where is this Cisco computer? Where we put the Cisco account? We certainly do not have a domain controller on our network called Cisco. Is it better to put this on a domain controller or a member server?
Thank you
Dwane
Step 1 Add CISCO workstation.
To meet the requirements of Windows for authentication requests, ACS must specify windows
in my computer to which the user tries to open a session. Because the ACS cannot determine this information
of authentication requests that send AAA clients, it uses a name of generic workstation for all applications.
Use CISCO under the name of the workstation.
In the local domain and in each trusted domain and a child domain that uses ACS to authenticate users.
ensure that:
? A computer named CISCO account exist.
? All users that Windows will authenticate are allowed to connect to the computer named CISCO.
For more information, see the Microsoft documentation for your operating system.
Go down to da external user---> DB Configuration---> Windows---> Configiure--->---> RA remote agent choose in the drop-down list---> Summit.
ACS will now use this remote agent.
Kind regards

Cisco ACS &; remote agent
Hello
Is it mandatory that remote agent for CSA will be installed on the primary domain server, would this work if it were to be installed on a virtual server that is a member of the main domainserver? This should be used for authentication using a vpn.
What impact is remote agent has on the operation of the wrt the CPU server, disruption, etc.
Thank you.
ACS can be installed on a member server.

Save the Remote Agent with ACS
Recently, I installed the version 4.1 Build 23 ACS eval (1). I also downloaded the same version of the remote agent and load on a domain controller, so I can authenticate on my ad. However, if you follow the directions to configure the remote agent on ACS I encountered a problem.
The online instructions say click on the Network Configuration and click on 'Add an entry' in the table of the Remote Agents. The problem is that I don't see a Remote Agents table in my network setup page. What I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Nick
Nick,
You have acs running on windows server, so there is no no need to have installed remote agent.
Remote agent is required with the GBA unit and not with windows of GBA.
