iPhone in Business Virtual Private Networks

VPN protocols

  • Cisco IPSec
  • L2TP/IPSec
  • PPTP

Authentication methods

  • Password (MSCHAPv2)
  • RSA SecurID
  • CRYPTOCard
  • X.509 digital certificates
  • Shared secret

VPN Deployment Scenario
The example depicts a typical deployment with a VPN server/concentrator as well as an authentication server controlling access to enterprise network services.

  1. iPhone requests access to network services (typically over a PPP connection).
  2. The VPN server/concentrator receives the request and then passes it to the authentication server.
  3. In a two-factor token environment, the authentication server would then manage a time-synchronized token key generation with the key server. If a certifi cate authentication method is deployed, an identity certifi cate needs to be distributed to iPhone prior to authentication. If a password method is deployed, the authentication process proceeds with user validation.
  4. Once a user is authenticated, the authentication server validates user and group policies.

A Brief Guide to WordPress

Introduction
WordPress offers two ways of creating content and it’s important to understand the difference between them:

  • Posts – these are the day to day (or at least fairly frequent) additions to the website. They are displayed on the website with the most recent at the top, and the rest in reverse chronological order. Posts are the things that most people go to the site for as they are constantly being added to. Posts are probably what you’ll create mostly.
  • Pages – these are separate from the main page and contain the more static type of information, such as reference pages, general information, etc. They are accessible through links in the header and/or sidebar.


Creating a Post or Page

  1. Log into your WordPress website so that you’re displaying the Dashboard
  2. Click on the Write button

How to Secure a Jailbroken iPod/iPhone

The following guide assumes that you have a jailbroken iPhone with OpenSSH installed.

Step 1: Go to Cydia and search for MobileTerminal app and then install it on your iPhone. Once you have successfully installed MobileTerminal, Reboot your iPhone.

Step 2: Now start MobileTerminal app and type the following command: passwd

Step 3: You’ll now be asked for your old password which should be ‘alpine’ (without the quotes), followed by a new one of your choice (twice). Simply enter your old and new password and you are done!

Step 4: In order to change root password, type ‘login’ command (without quotes) and then press enter. Now type ‘root’ (without quotes) as your login and ‘alpine’ (without the quotes) as your current root password. Once you have logged in as root, type ‘passwd’ command (without quotes) again and press enter. It will now prompt you to enter a new password (twice). Simply enter your desired new password again as you did in Step 3 (for changing mobile password) and you should be all fine. It is highly recommended that you change, both your mobile and root passwords to make sure you are completely safe from any outside SSH attack.

A Guide for Amplifier Installation and Adjustment

What exactly do you do when it comes to installing and tweaking an amplifier? Every person who purchases one probably asks this question, but if you plan to “do it yourself” some retailers won’t offer many suggestions because they’re not doing the work. In any event, there are many factors to consider when installing an amp, some of which we’ll cover in this issue.

One of the most important factors is the gauge size (AWG) of the wire for your positive (+) and negative (-) terminations: The positive and negative wires should be of the same gauge (AWG). As a veteran would say, you can’t fill with a fire hose and empty with a straw!

The Thanks Giving Guide

Thanksgiving is an Opportunity to Bring your Family Together and a Great Way to Make Precious Memories

Here are some fun Thanksgiving ideas for your family this year:

Thankful cards – Make a card for each family member that will be your guest for Thanksgiving this year. On each card, tell that person what you love most about them, and why you are thankful for them.

Recipe books – A few months before Thanksgiving, contact each family member. Beside their name, make a note of their best dish and ask for a copy of that recipe, plus one or two of their own favorites that they’d like to share.

When you have all the recipes ready, compile them into a booklet and print them, using your computer and printer. (You can also use professional services, if you wish, to make a longer-lasting recipe book.) After your guests all arrive for your Thanksgiving dinner, give them each a copy of your special recipe book.
