Some of you people are older than me.... just sayin'
Am I?
Yes don't you know I am only in my mid 20's
(and will be forever and ever and ever)
Well, I'm in my mid 20's and that's without the repeating of the same birthday year after year 
Okay, a little bit of a rant. Just had to edit a holiday schedule for a customer and help them record a greeting for being closed for said holiday...
Have IE11 which usually has to be used because it doesnt load the scripts properly in chrome. Well, that stopped working due to security issues with the call manager. Okay... Download Firefox, turn off some security settings that it yells about, and boom. I'm in...
Okay, let's check out the recording. you need java to run this Damn. Alright. Download and install Java...
Okay, now let's try again. security issue: this applet doesn't meet the requirements for high or very high security and has been blocked. Really?! Okay. Reconfigure Java to allow exemptions. Reconfigure again because it didn't like taking IP's very well...
This entire process took half an hour. and all because of antiquated UI's with poor security, and if I recall right there's Cisco Call Manager, and also there's a lot of bank UI's that require certain versions of Java, and only run in IE. When did any of this become okay to just let sit idle like this and everyone be like "Yeah, that's just how it is."?! Are these applications just going to continue to callously disregard security because "Oh, well, it shouldn't matter in an internal environment or with all of these other security checks in place."? To the point where we have developed full workarounds as standards to accessing these things?
</rant>
Just looking to hear your thoughts on this. I know at least a handful of you have ran into things like this.
@DustinB3403 said in Security Camera w/ POE Injector:
Here are the power requirements
WV-SFR311 DC power supply: 12 V DC/340 mA/Approx. 4.1 W PoE Device: 48 V DC/130 mA/Approx. 6.2 W* (Class 2 device) WV-SFR310 DC power supply: 12 V DC/310 mA/Approx. 3.7 W PoE Device: 48 V DC/120 mA/Approx. 5.8 W* (Class 2 device) * ONLY CONNECT 12 V DC CLASS 2 POWER SUPPLY.
"PoE Device: 48 V DC/130 mA/Approx. 6.2 W* (Class 2 device)"
This is what you want to look for. With POE transmitters, shouldn't be too hard to find.
@Mike-Davis said in Open WiFi - do you use it?:
SSL is secure or it isn't. If it's not secure don't use it anywhere. Don't shop online, bank, etc. Along that note, what banking site is not using SSL? It would be crazy not to.
Unless the AP has device isolation on, checking the box for promiscuous mode in WireShark is pretty easy.
What difference does it make how many people are connected. Do you walk in to Starbucks and size up the geek level of people sitting there?
Well, yes I do, but that's not for this purpose. More for how much I do or do not want to stick around. (Tongue-in-cheek)
It's a factor of adding a password to wifi ("Secure Wifi" Now) keeps out the random people. In theory, and in most cases where we talking about using secure wifi, at least in my experience, you have more of an idea who is on the network. So, familiarity I guess moreso than quantity.
@Lakshmana said in Citrix Issue in EPA Scan:
@FiyaFly The windows profile is renamed,temporary file cleared cache cleared,then the IE is also reset where the credential is also right.The credential page does not opens where the Netscaler scans the machine for the compactibility then it gives an error as the Access Denied in it.
Okay, I think I'm starting to follow. It sounds like the scan is throwing you an access denied, as in Netscaler does not have permissions to run a scan on that machine. Can you recall changing anything as far as firewall on the machine, or making sure to create a local user for Netscaler?
@BRRABill said in Open WiFi - do you use it?:
That was really my question. I have spent a lot of time visiting hospitals this year, so I generally connect to their Wifi, and then immediately connect to my VPN. In my thinking that is pretty secure, and I do not worry about security after that.
I was having an argument with someone (not @Dashrender) who said they still don't do banking this way, which I thought was crazy. That is DOUBLE encryption.
In theory, if you connect to open Wifi, but have a firewall and use a site with HTTPS, you should be safe, right?
The VPN just locks that down even more.
Or am I nuts?
You will run into the type of people who feel like unless they hand built each piece of the network, it isn't secure enough for them. In my opinion, I would be with you. Firewall, VPN, Secured wifi, call it good. There are many that will disagree.
I have never messed with this, so I'll ask some generic questions for a bit more info.
Clear your cache, just for fun. It has caused me issues in anything that changes at all.
I wonder if the access denied is saying bad credentials or if it is just timing out? If bad credentials, you may want to check the integrity of the database, at least in the concern of that login or account. If it is timing out, you may have something network related blocking this.
This is just an overall view of things. If anyone else has more experience with this, please chime in.
@Mike-Davis said in Open WiFi - do you use it?:
What's the concern? Man in the middle? If you're doing anything secure, there should be a secure tunnel anyways. Even if you are on "secure" wifi, someone else on the "secure wifi" can still see your traffic.
I think the general concern is More people can connect to open wifi, and in a general sense more people that you don't know, don't know the intentions of, and don't know the competency of. I'm not advocating to just take "Secure wifi" and run with it doing banking and the whole nine yards just assuming and hoping.

@BRRABill and I were talking and decided to bring this conversation public.
Do you use open WiFi? If so, do you do anything special when doing so? like using a VPN?
Yes, but I generally hop on my VPN if I do use it.
Agreed here, My android phone has a wifi smart assistant that automatically throws me on a VPN on public wifi. Still looking to take a look into how secure it is, but I don't do anything that I would dislike people having information about while on it.
Atooma?
Nope. Wifi Assistant. Built into my Nexus 6P
https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/6327199?hl=enYeah I have the same thing - but it's not 100% of the time.
I just turned it on the other day, so I haven't given it a whole lot of exposure to open networks to play with.
Turned it on? Mine was on by default. At least I don't recall turning it on.
Yeah, mine asked me if i wanted to use it or not. For me it wasn't by default.
@Dashrender said in Open WiFi - do you use it?:
But even if Google didn't automatically use their own VPN, I probably wouldn't bother with VPN. My email client uses secure connections only, most websites I visit are HTTPS sites - though I suppose a bad actor could downgrade them in flight.
I guess that really depends on the kind of traffic I'm doing. As you said, someone could play MITM and that would just be bad juju.

I told you, I'm fat.
rofl I get it now
Basically, I'm the worst.
Don't forget that vigorous sex is also exercise.... and I'm pretty sure that I out-fat you. I'm old too. So suck it up, youngster!
I out fat you both.
I don't know if you out-fat me, but I know you out-bald me!
shots fired
If you saw my long, flowing locks in person, you'd understand....
I have met you now... and I'm glad the ladies like those long flowing locks. To me it just looks like to much hair to wash all the time.
It's worth the effort (and expense) because without hair, I just have a big pumpkin head. Ladies don't be diggin' the giant Charlie Brown head.
Don't let my current profile picture fool you. I need to update it. Got a decent Ponytail going on myself lol.

damn, hardly knew Texas could get that cold (i'm joking of course, I know that some parts get full on winter.)
We were at -11C last night which is not quite zero F, but it is getting down there.
LOL see my post above currently -8 F. At least @JaredBusch is above zero.
I'm at 30 F but Thursday was 10.
20 F here
@scottalanmiller A wrapper isn't bad... if done properly. They literally took the whole thing and essentially copy/pasted for a different OS with no changes made. There's an option in the settings on android to enable desktop notifications.... It constantly disconnects, even while providing a solid internet connection, text editing on the android version is buggy- it deletes or adds additional letters. The desktop version has a tendency to freeze, and there are very little customization options for the applications, though you can change the skin in the browser with an extension.
I plan on doing this... at some point. Maybe after I'm over the flu, have a job lined up in development, and am not worrying about money.
Just feels like there is too much to do to learn another language right now.
This sounds very sketchy offhand. Sorry, I don't mean offense, but can you give us some background on why you need this?
