As a follow up on the Cntlm configuration post last week , here is a small batch file that will find Cntlm.exe (on x86 and x64 systems) then start it in verbose mode.

call :start %ProgramFiles%
call :start %ProgramFiles(x86)%
goto :end
:start
startlocal
set cntlm="%*\Cntlm\Cntlm.exe"
echo %cntlm%
if exist %cntlm% start "Cntlm verbose" %cntlm% -v
endlocal
goto :end
:end

This is an elaboration of How to fill proxy information in cntlm config file – Stack Overflow .
When digging around how to get authentication stuff going, I want as much information, so this was the command-line I used:
cntlm.exe -v -c cntlm.ini -I -M http://www.bbc.co.uk
The -v is important: it shows you why things fail, and where: It also shows you the NTLM headers sent back/forth over the wire.
These are the switches used:
-v verbose
-c configuration file
-I interactive (prompt for password)
-M magically detect the NTLM level used by the proxy
Since it is unsafe to store plain text passwords in configuration files, cntlm allows you to store the hashes .
Storing hashes not passwords locally is safer, but not much safer. See for instance Still Passing the Hash 15 Years Later: Guest Post: Let’s talk about Pass-the-Hash by Scriptjunkie the video How to own a Windows Domain or search for Mark Russinovich video windows hash ntlm hack .
Anyway: you can generate the password hashes using either Read the rest of this entry »

Wow: I feel like having lived under a stone for 8 years, as RosettaCode has been alive since it was founded in 2007 by Mike Mol .
The idea is that you solve a task and learn from that, or learn by seeing how others have solved tasks or draft tasks .
So in a sense it is similar to the Rosetta stone : it has different languages phrasing the same tasks.
There are already a whole bunch of languages on RosettaCode (of which a few are in the categories below), and you can even suggest or add your own languages.
When you want to solve tasks, be sure to look at the list unimplemented tasks by language that leads to automatic reports by language (for instance two of the languages I use most often: C# and Delphi ).
I’m sure there are lots of programming chrestomathy sites , even beyond the ones, and it feels very similar to programming kata sites .

When I look what is possible with Cross-site Scripting (XSS) , then I wonder how you can defend your site to any and all of these and future attacks.
Coming from a desktop application and back-end background, the jungle of the web keeps being overwhelming.

For my link archive: the “old” stats page, as it shows more information in a better formatted way (especially on larger monitors) My Stats — WordPress.com .
The “new” stats page used only half the screen width (long live responsive layout): Stats ‹ 7443331 — WordPress.com .

I bumped into some issues for a client/server project that tried to perform its own SSPI/NTLM base64 authentication on the server side.
Some links that helped me debug that combo:

Complaint Friday…
A long time ago, I complained about the (now old!) WordPress.com editor being wrong, wrong, wrong: Another example of the editor eating line breaks « WordPress.com Forums .
The promise then was that the new editor would be better.
The big news: the new editor is just as bad in this respect (and far worse in other respects ).
Just watch the text around my signature and PS in the texts below and shiver.
Lets start with the original text of my GoToWebinar blog post today :

It is always cool to see some mashups: apart from great examples, they also make for some good research material.
