As we all knows Windows OS is  full of hidden programs that are only limited to developer or geeks. Today we are going to learn about MSRA (windows remote assistance) executable. MSRA is windows inbuilt remote assistance program using which you can control remote pc's, share remote screens, provide remote support and much more. Lets learn how to use MSRA for remote sharing.

Steps to Share or Control Remote PC using MSRA:


1. First of all click on startup and type command "MSRA" and press enter as shown below:



Type msra in search option
Type msra in search option


2. Now you will see screen like below having title "Windows Remote Assistance" , there are two options displayed:

a. Invite someone you trust to help you : Choose this option if you want to share your screen with someone.
b. Help someone who invited you : Choose this option if you want to control someone others PC remotely.

Click on Option a "Invite someone you trust to help you" to share your screen:

Now you can see three different options :
a. Send this invitation as file : On clicking this option you can save the invitation file and send it to anyone from which you require help. After saving the file another window will open containing the password. You have to provide that password to person whom you want to connect to your machine.

b. Use email to send an invitation: You can send invitation directly via email but it requires email client on your machine to send email like outlook etc.


c. Use Easy connect: Another method to directly connect two PC is using Easy connect but this require some basic settings at your routers end i.e. If the computer has IPv6 disabled or is behind a NAT router that blocks Teredo traffic, the Easy Connect option will be unavailable.


Now once you have send the  remote assistance invitation file to user, he can connect to your PC by double clicking the invitation file and then entering the password.


Note: You need to enable remote assistance service.

Facebook accept 3 'PASSWORDS'




 

Hello,

For today's generation basic needs are not just food cloths and shelter but facebook too. Most of the people (all) must be starting their day with logging in facebook and even ends their day with facebook. our generation can stay without water for a day but not without facebook.

But still many of us dont know that facebook accept 3 passwords. Yes we have logged in to facebook for thousands of time and we have entered our passwords for thousands of time. But still people are unaware of the fact of 3 passwords. I have listed it below:

1) The first one is your original password . That is obvious lets take an example as my password is rAjDesaI.

2) the second password is just toggle the letters of your password. That is Capital to small and small to Capital. In our case if you enter "RaJdESAi" facebook will accept it This is not some kind of issue with facebook security . facebook has intentionally provided this so that some times when our capalock is on by mistake we dont need to re enter the password, And it is too common to get irritate with the error "incorrect user ID or PASSWORD" .

3)The third password is the same password with first letter capital. This is the function provided because in mobiles by default the first letter is capital so we have turn off the caps lock first. well facebook gives us freedom to write the password without turning off the caps in mobile. In our case
 the password RAjDesaI wtll be the correct pass.

SMTP,POP3,FTP & VoIP

SMTP

(SIMPLE MAIL TRANSFER PROTOCOL)

SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. SMTP is used when email is delivered from an email client, such as Outlook Express, to an email server or when email is delivered from one email server to another. SMTP uses port 25.

POP3

(POST OFFICE PROTOCOL)

POP3 stands for Post Office Protocol. POP3 allows an email client to download an email from an email server. The POP3 protocol is simple and does not offer many features except for download. Its design assumes that the email client downloads all available email from the server, deletes them from the server and then disconnects. POP3 normally uses port 110.


COMPARISON  BETWEEN SMTP &POP

  POP is a protocol for storage of email. SMTP is a protocol for sending and receiving.

     
              To give a real-world illustration, SMTP would be like a letter carrier or mailman. He or she can deliver or pick up mail for transfer to another location. POP is like a mailbox or Post Office Box. It is the location the mail is delivered to and where it stays until the recipient is ready to read it. Outgoing mail can also be put in the mailbox.

           SMTP is the standard by which the vast majority of mail of transferred on the Internet. Though invented in the early 1980s, it has a reputation for being very reliable. Most mail goes through without problems and gets to the recipient quickly.

           However, SMTP also has some shortcomings that were not anticipated when it was first created, and that has created issues for many modern users. SMTP has no way of verifying senders are who they claim they are. Back in the 1980s, when the Internet was used among a select group of people mainly in government and academia, this was not a big issue.

      Since the 1990s, it has become a major problem. SMTP’s shortcomings, have given rise not only to spam, but a host of other more malicious enterprises, such as virus transfers. If a program can search an inbox and send a virus as an attachment to everyone on a certain person’s contact list, using that person’s name, it is more likely to be opened by the recipient, who trusts the person they think it is coming from. Though efforts have been made to increase the security of the SMTP standard, it is still a long way from being truly effective.

     POP was first designed in 1984 with the idea of allowing users to access an e-mail server, retrieve messages to a local folder located on the computer, and then go offline for reading and writing replies. In part, the offline capabilities were developed at a time when logging on to the Internet was relatively expensive and users were charged per minute. Currently, most of those using the POP standard are using the third version, developed in 1988. This is often referred to as POP3.


FTP

(FILE TRANSFER PROTOCOL) 

FTP means File Transfer Protocol, it is used to send larger packets of data than the traditional TCP/IP protocol. This is usually used when you download programs or documents from the internet.FTP normally uses port 21.

   As an example if u are owning a website,which obviously contains files and data s according to the requirement.. we have to transfer our files to display on the webpage or to execute on the website.FTP is used for transfering our file to the website or to download updated files from the website. basically FTP is the way of communication to the web server.

VOIP

 VOICE OVER IP (VOICE OVER INTERNET PROTOCOLVOIP)

Voip is a methodology and group of technologies for the delivery of voice communication and multimedia sessions over Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet. Other terms commonly associated with VoIP are IP telephony, Internet telephony, voice over broadband (VoBB), broadband telephony, IP communications, and broadband phone service.

        VoIP is a technology that allows telephone calls to be made over computer networks like the Internet. VoIP converts analog voice signals into digital data packets and supports real-time, two-way transmission of conversations using Internet Protocol (IP).

       VoIP calls can be made on the Internet using a VoIP service provider and standard computer audio systems. Alternatively, some service providers support VoIP through ordinary telephones that use special adapters to connect to a home computer network. Many VoIP implementations are based on the H.323 technology standard.
     
     VoIP offers a substantial cost savings over traditional long distance telephone calls. The main disadvantage of VoIP is a greater potential for dropped calls and degraded voice quality when the underlying network links are under heavy load.

What is Authentication


AUTHENTICATION



Authentication is the process which allows a sender and receiver of information to validate each other. If the sender and receiver of information cannot properly authenticate each other, there is no trust in the activities or information provided by either party.  Authentication can involve highly complex and secure methods or can be very simple.  The simplest form of authentication is the transmission of a shared password between entities wishing to authenticate each other. Today’s authentication methods uses some of the below factors.

1) What you know:

An example of this type of Authentication is a "Password". The simple logic here is that if you know the secret password for an account, then you must be the owner of that account. The problems associated with this type of Authentication is that the password can be stolen, someone might read it if you wrote it somewhere. If anyone came to know your password, he might tell someone else. If you have a simple dictionary password, it is easy to crack it by using password cracking software. 


2) What you have:

Examples of this type of Authentication are smart cards, tokens etc.  The logic here is if you have the smart card with you, you must be the owner of the account. The problems associated with this type of authentication are you might lose the smart card, it can be stolen, or someone canduplicate the smart card etc. 


3) What you are:

Examples of this type of authentication are your fingerprint, handprint, retina pattern, voice,keystroke pattern etc. Problems associated with this type of authentication are that there is a chance of false positives and false negatives. Chances are there that a valid user is rejected and an invalid user is accepted. Often people are not comfortable with this type of authentication.
Network Authentication are usually based on Authentication protocols, Digital Certificates,Username/Password, smart card etc. Some of the most important authentication protocols which are used today are Kerberos, Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP), Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (MSCHAP) etc
