• Adding vswitch and portgroup in a stat report information

  Hi - I have a script that details stats for 24 hours. I'm trying to change so that it displays the name of vSwitch the VMNIC is attached to (IE vSwitch0 vSwitch1 etc).  I tried to get the information to display, but I either get a column empty, or I get all vswitches listed in each row.  Any advice?  Thanks in advance

  $pg = $vmhost.Config.Network.Portgroup |where {$_.ComputedPolicy.NicTeaming.NicOrder.ActiveNic -contains $group.group[0].Instance} | %{$_.Spec.Name}
  

  If you want to include network standby cards as well, this line should be

  $pg = $vmhost.Config.Network.Portgroup |where {$_.ComputedPolicy.NicTeaming.NicOrder.ActiveNic -contains $group.group[0].Instance -or $_.ComputedPolicy.NicTeaming.NicOrder.standbyNic -contains $group.group[0].Instance} | %{$_.Spec.Name}
  

  Let me know if it gives the results you expect.

• How to see the VSwitch and PortGroup properties in the managed object browser

  Hello

  We have a laboratory infrastructure VI3, with a VC and some ESX servers running.

  In the managed object browser, I'd like to see the properties of certain objects,

  especially the VSwitches and exchanges.

  How do I see VSwitch and exchanges from the CROWD. Here's my data:

  ESX IP address: 192.188.0.228

  VSwitch name: vSwitch0

  The port group name: VM_PG

  I know that we can see these properties of Client VI, but I really want to see values

  returned for each of the attributes defined in the WSDL file and the CROWD precisely

  allows me to do. This will help me to do a bit on our end of modeling.

  I tried, but I couldn't really vSwitch. Grateful if someone can give inputs.

  Thank you

  Try this:

  https://A.B.C.D/mob/?moid=ha-host&doPath=config.network
  

  and more precisely which lists out them the portgroup and vSwitches

  https://A.B.C.D/mob/?moid=ha-host&doPath=config.network

• How to disable security settings

  I book my movie tickets online and have always been able to select my seat when a plan of the cinema showing places available. Since last week I can no longer do this. The table plan no longer appears and I just get a little window saying blocked Application and 'your security settings have blocked an application not approved race.' If I click on the Details tab, I get a Java Console box with a list of stuff that doesn't make much sense to me. I want to know how to disable anything that blocks the plan places movies so that I can continue to see and book my tickets I've ever done.

  Hello Philipp,

  Thanks for the reply - since I posted the message that I discovered that the problem is with the latest Java update - it does not work with the way cinema will post their plans of seats. The film is trying to find another way for people to see the table plan. So as you say, it wasn't a problem in Firefox. Thank you very much.

• How to do the field work of signature for Player users? Security settings change when the doc extension?

  I struggled to fix a problem all week and I'm at my wits end. The customer service was no help because the person that I spoke with could barely speak English and even less understanding of the problem that I explained it. Hoping someone here can get an idea, here's the question:

  I use a professional Windows 7 operating system. I created a Microsoft Word's doc and used Adobe Acrobat XI Standard to create a form from it. It automatically detected fields, which includes a signature field. I had fixed all how it was and "Save as other - reader extended pdf - activate filling out forms in & save in reader.

  The document is a report that will be sent to a small number of people who have to fill in, sign and return digitally and I'm assuming that most, if not all of them will open the document using the free Adobe Reader software. So I thought I'd extend it's what I had to do to make sure that they could fill, save to their computer if need be and also digitally sign. Signature field is automatically added in by acrobat for me and I do not change the properties of it at all except to add a border.

  When I open the form in Reader (also XI) I can fill in all the fields, save it... but not signed. Security settings say signature is not allowed, even if I went back to the original form of pdf and the security settings to this topic say allowed for everything. I don't know how to resolve this... Please help!

  I've attached a few screenshots, but can include more if necessary...

  You must apply the rights of the reader to the file by file - save as other - Reader - Extended PDF - activate tools more. I'm not sure that it's available in Acrobat Standard, however.

• Update security settings is bogus?

  Sometimes I got the message "a new update of security settings is available at Adobe Systems.  You want to install it now? "This happens when you download a PDF file of a web site by using a browser.  Whenever I clicked No. and finished my download.  The PDF file appears to open correctly in the browser window.  When I open Adobe Reader (outside the browser) and look for the updates as there are not.  This happened yesterday.  I just tried the same url, and the security settings window did not come to the top.  I'm not only paranoid, but curious to know what is happening - is there someone trying to download malware or is it just a bug?

  I'm on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, SeaMonkey 2.0.6 Adobe Reader 9.3.3.  This has happened with various versions of SeaMonkey, Reader on an OS Vista Home Premium.  I don't remember if it was always the same website or different.  This time, it was ( http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=111_cong_bills & docid = f: h5440ih.t xt.pdf ).

  I have automatic updates disabled, enable enhanced security is enabled, in the Trust Manager I unchecked allow opening of non-pdf...  I don't remember if I changed all other default settings.

  Hi sfdadtony,

  The update message that you saw in the tray was to update the player. Adobe recently released 9.4 update. For more details on the update follow this link: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb10-21.html

  To analyze the reason why you faced this problem, I need more information on your side like what OS are you running on your system and which version of Reader has been installed on your system before you updated. Also can you whether or not it please if Reader has been correctly updated. (To check the version of Reader, reader run-> Go to Help-> on Adobe Reader 9)

  The message of security updates that are in discussion on this thread do not ask re - boot your system. They have just update the certificate trust list that is used by the reader to validate digital signatures present in the PDF files.

• Script for vSwitch change security settings

  Going to start working on this script, but if someone knows, is one year, I'd be interested.  Trying to create a script that changes the vSwitch 'Change of address' security settings and "forged passes" to "Reject" to all on the host's vSwitches.  I would like the script to turn to a CSV with a list of ESX servers, so that the script should authenticate directly on the ESX Server.  Thank you.

  Yes, you need a header row in the CSV file

  Move invites him outside of the loop, something like this

  $rootpassword = Read-Host -AsSecureString -Prompt "Enter the root password"
  
  Import-Csv "C:\esxnames.csv" -UseCulture | %{
      Connect-Viserver $_.Name -user root -password $rootpassword 
  
      $esx = Get-View -ViewType HostSystem -Filter @{"Name"=$_.Name}
      $NetworkSystem = Get-View $esx.ConfigManager.NetworkSystem
      foreach ($sw in $NetworkSystem.Networkconfig.Vswitch){
          $swspec = $sw.spec

• All of a sudden I can't open attachments to emails. I get a message that the 'security settings' do not allow. Where are these settings and who put?

  I use TWC (Time Warner Cable) as my server e-mail and Firefox as my browser. I went to my emails and has attempted to open an attachment and got an error message stating "security settings prevent the download file. Well, I contacted TWC, Norton and my PC settings. It seems that Firefox is the problem! If I use another browser ie: Google and go to my email account, I have no problem. I remember recently that Firefox did a download of updates and this may be the cause of the problem.

  Thank you for your private message with the error text: "your current security settings do not allow this file to download."

  Firefox partially integrates with Internet Explorer security settings for download purposes. You can realize your Internet Explorer settings to the 'Internet' zone by following the steps described in this answer to Microsoft forums:

• Can someone give advice on apparently loose confidentiality and security settings in Safari on Mac

  I'm new to Mac and see that the security and privacy etc.settings for Safari seem to be very loose. (I have I have these much tighter settings on my Windows 7 PC) I am concerned about privacyand on web security, but I don't want any more to hinder the default mac system? So I would appreciate any advice on this subject. Thank you!

  There are a few easy steps you can take to improve your privacy on the Web.

  In the Safari menu bar, select

  ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ Extensions

  An inventory of the extensions you have installed, as appropriate. A few Safari extensions are adware or spyware. Carefully read the privacy policies or the terms of use. Delete everything that you don't really need, or you are not sure.

  An extension that you may want to install is called "Ghostery." It blocks tracking cookies a lot. Extensions "ClickToFlash" and "ClickToPlugin" prevents Flash content from loading automatically.

  If you have installed hacks supported by advertising as "Glims" affecting the Safari, uninstall them as instructed by the developer. Doing so will improve the stability of Safari, as well as your privacy.

  In the Safari Preferences dialog box, select the Privacy tab. You have the option to delete data, such as cookies, stored on your computer by web servers. You can delete all of these data, or only some of them remove by clicking on the Details button. The other parameters are little explicit.

  On a more advanced level, you can change the DNS servers used by your computer or router, to find the addresses of all the Internet servers that you use. In general, the best choice from the point of view of privacy is to use the DNS servers of your ISP. Your Internet traffic goes through the network of your Internet service provider anyway, so in theory, there is no loss of privacy in the use of its DNS servers. Avoid third party DNS services such as "OpenDNS", which is in the business of selling your information to marketing specialists.

  Consider using software like 'GlimmerBlocker' ad-blocking, which also blocks certain forms of abuse of JavaScript that can be used to track you. It is only suitable for advanced users, and it can block some web content you want to see.

  This comment is not an endorsement of any third party software. Do your own research before deciding whether to use the software.

  When you use a public network such as a Wi - Fi hotspot, don't forget that others connected to the same network may be able to listen to your network traffic. They will not be able to read the content of this traffic, if you connect to Web sites secured like this, but they know the addresses of the sites. It is the same for the e-mail and Messaging. Public VPN services to sell as a solution to this problem, but using these services may have a serious security and privacy implications.
