Solved-The schema is not upgraded in Windows Server 2012

This is the detail of the error message in adprep log file

Adprep failed to verify whether schema master has completed a replication cycle after last reboot.
[Status/Consequence]
The schema is not upgraded.
[User Action]
Check the log file ADPrep.log in the C:\Windows\debug\adprep\logs\20130613165022-test directory for possible cause of failure.
[2013/06/13:16:50:22.392]
Adprep encountered an LDAP error.
Error code: 0xc. Server extended error code: 0x20ae, Server error message: 000020AE: SvcErr: DSID-03210384, problem 5010 (UNAVAIL_EXTENSION), data 8610
My domain scenario is that I have main domain controller on Windows Server 2008 R2 (DC1) and a backup domain controller on Windows Server 2008 (DC2), I am upgrading my company’s domain controller to server 2012 and for this i installed windows server 2012 on one of my machine in a Hyper-V role and wanted to make it as another backup domain controller before making further up gradation. But it was failing on pre-requisite checks with the error  mentioned above. Actually this Error was caused because of my silly mistake, but thought to share for silly guys like me, lol…
And the mistake was my backup domain controller (the server with Windows 2008) was turned off. Started the backup domain controller with the main domain controller and after that pre-requisite check was run successfully.

How to import Putty Saved Connections to mRemoteNG

Just started using mRemoteNG and its being very cool to connect to different remote connection with different protocols e.g Window Remote Desktop, VNC to Linux, SSH, HTTP connection etc. from a single application. As new user I configured some remote desktop connection which was quite easy to figure out. But when I wanted to add SSH connections, it came in my mind to import all of the saved connections in the putty. But I couldn't figure it out how can it be done, though it was quite easy and here are the steps. Open your mRemoteNG Create a folder if you want segregation of multiple networks Create a new connection Enter the IP address of remote server under connection in Config pane Under the config pane, select protocol " SSH version 2 ".  Once you select protocol to SSH version 2 you are given option to import putty sessions, as shown in the snap below. In the above snap, I have imported CSR-AWS session from my saved sessions in Putty.

SSL VPN vs IPSec VPN: Understanding the Key Differences

When it comes to securing communication over the internet, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are a cornerstone of modern networking. Two popular types of VPNs are SSL VPN and IPSec VPN . While both serve to encrypt and secure data, they differ significantly in terms of technology, use cases, and implementation. This blog post will help you understand these differences and choose the right solution for your needs. What is SSL VPN? An SSL VPN uses the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or its successor, Transport Layer Security (TLS) , to create a secure connection. It operates at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model and is designed to provide secure access to specific resources over the internet. Key Features of SSL VPN: Ease of Use: Accessible via a standard web browser without the need for dedicated client software. Granular Access Control: Allows users to access specific applications or resources rather than the entire network. Port Usage: Uses TCP port 443, which is rarely...

BGP Soft Reconfiguration vs. Route Refresh: Key Differences and Best Practices

In BGP (Border Gateway Protocol), managing route updates and reapplying new policies can sometimes be challenging, especially if you want to avoid resetting the BGP session. Two methods allow you to update routing policies without tearing down the session: BGP Soft Reconfiguration and BGP Route Refresh . While both methods serve the same purpose, they work differently and have distinct impacts on your router's resources. This post explains the key differences between Soft Reconfiguration and Route Refresh , when to use each, and why Route Refresh is preferred in most modern networks. 1. What is BGP Soft Reconfiguration? BGP Soft Reconfiguration is an older method of applying new policies (like route maps, filters, or prefix lists) without resetting the BGP session. It works by storing a local copy of all the routes received from a BGP neighbor before applying inbound policies. This local route copy allows the router to reprocess the routes when a policy change occurs. How So...
