SFOS 16.05.6 MR-6 Broken STAS?

M8ey

Hi All,

 

We have an XG 230 that I upgraded the firmware on. Since then users are getting the authentication pop up from the XG where others are fine.

Rebooting their PC fixes some so it might lead to a fresh login event fixing it. The Firewall shows them logging in but then logging out and then I get a Authentication fail.

Seems STAS is working for many but randomly fails others since the Firmware update.

I run two DCs with STAS enabled (Latest version of STAS) and I can see live users active yet others not. The inactivity time outs are set high so they would need to walk away for a few hours to be timed out.

EDIT: I disabled the Inactivity time out but still have the issue.

  

The logs just show NTML Client failed to Authenticate

Anyone else having this issue?

 

 

Edit: I can see a few others having the same since the update so I will roll back my Firmware for now until a fix is released.

    Yeah mine is similar.

    If I open STAS Collector on my Server 2008 R2 box I can only see two live users - The XG reports 162 live users right now.

    The server 16 STAS has no live users

     

     

    I see lots of errors in the Event Log regarding unable to connect to host to run WMI probes. Since I've altered the security I see less events but at lease the ones that are there are genuine connection refusals. Ive had to add the STAS user account to DCOM group in a GPO to get this thing to stabilise. 

    No doubt as a result of MS updates tightening security from ransomware exploits, this has all gone to hell in a hand basket. Ironically STAS auth utilises the same methods the worms use to infiltrate networks.
