Certificate Generation Made Easy(dscoduc.com)

submitted by dscoduc(1099) 3 years, 1 month ago

Here is a HTA script that automates the generation of a self signed CA and a machine certificate. This helps achieve the advantage of a Root CA without the need to actually build a server to act as a Certificate Authority. Screen shots give you an example of the functionality. read more...

Printer Friendly Posts(dscoduc.com)

submitted by dscoduc(1099) 3 years, 2 months ago

One thing I have noticed with BlogEngine is the absence of a printer friendly view of a post and comments. Since this is a technical blog I sometimes write entries that include code samples and such that would make the print out be exceptionally long if printed within the margins of my theme. So I set out to build a view that would provide a clean printer friendly view of a post. read more...

submitted by dscoduc(1099) 3 years, 2 months ago

Tips for using BlogEngine Pages(dscoduc.com)

submitted by dscoduc(1099) 3 years, 2 months ago

When I switched over to BE my previous experience told me to create separate .aspx pages for stand-alone content. I didn’t see the need to use the BlogEngine Pages feature. What I found out when doing things this way was that I couldn’t use all of the theme and events that come along with the BE master page. So I reluctantly switched to using BlogEngine BlogEngine Pages instead of adding separate .aspx. After running this way for a while I figured out some things that I thought might help others to know as well. read more...

TSG and the Default Web Site(dscoduc.com)

submitted by dscoduc(1099) 3 years, 2 months ago

During the installation process the TSG services configure the IIS services to listen on port 443 of the Default Web Site. So in addition to listening for RDP over HTTP(s) connection attempts the TSG server is also listening for regular HTTPS traffic. To see this behavior you simply need to open up your browser and point it to your TSG server. You will see the default web page that is configured for the Default Web Site. Is this a bad thing? read more...

jQuery and HTAs(dscoduc.com)

submitted by dscoduc(1099) 3 years, 2 months ago

The reason using jQuery in HTAs is so interesting to me is that one of the main constraints of using JavaScript in web pages (that being the amount of data that has to be transferred from the server to the client) has been lifted. With your web pages you are always concerned with the amount of data that is being sent to the client causing a slow rendering. With HTAs you don't have this issue. The JavaScript and Plugins can be saved locally and included in a support folder for quick loading into your HTA. read more...

Are you using TS Gateway?(dscoduc.com)

submitted by dscoduc(1099) 3 years, 3 months ago

There has to be a better way. Something better than trying to remember the different port assignments; better than opening up all those ports to the world and allowing anyone to RDP to the server for the casual brute force password attack. Better than something so complex that I couldn’t really explain it to co-workers that needed to connect into my lab. It turns out there is a better way. It’s called Microsoft Windows 2008 Terminal Services Gateway. read more...
