verisign

I wrote a .Net application that has nothing to do with network communication. There is not a single line of code in the whole application that uses the NIC, but my firewall has caught it trying to contact Verisign for some reason when the app starts. This does not happen regularly; as a matter of fact, it has only happened twice. The last time it happened, I was able to launch Wireshark before telling my firewall to allow access to the network. There was no real data transfer that I can tell. It only captured 9 TCP packets: some SYN packets, some SYN/ACK, and some RST packets (The RST packets

I'm trying to find the list of all whois servers for COM/NET. Verisign is the authoritative registry for the .com, .net, .name, .cc and .tv domains. Possible solution: To find out the complete list of whois servers is to crawl through at least a million of them (via whois.crsnic.net) using the domain list from the .com zone file and read the official whois from the whois result. That way I could probably build a 90%+ complete list. I'm ready to go that route and post a result here but if anybody knows a better way/source, please do help. Thank you! I found all the accredited registrars on

Is it possible in Inno Setup to sign the Uninstaller and Installer with sha1 and sha256 at the same time? I know that it is possible to sign the Executable with both certs via command tool, but want to know if this is possible to achieve with SignTool in Inno. Autoanswer... Yes, this is possible. As @Wosi suggested you can write a batch and then call it with $f parameter added. Sample batch (signtool.bat): @echo off "PATH_TO_SIGNTOOL\signtool.exe" sign /v /du "COMPANY_NAME" /fd sha1 /t "http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll" /f "sha1_cert.pfx" /p PASSWORD %1 set SIGN_RESULT_1=

This is what appears many times in console of Jetty local webserver when testing J2EE Spring app. 2012-05-03 14:28:14,716 WARN [org.springframework.web.servlet.PageNotFound] - <No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/crls/secureca.crl] in DispatcherServlet with name 'DefaultServlet'> I've setup my localhost (OSX) like this: sudo ipfw add 100 fwd 127.0.0.1,8080 tcp from any to any 80 in To forward all requests to localhost/127.0.0.1 from :80 to :8080 Does anybody know if this is severe bug/warning and how to get rid of it ? My mistake, I got (and only god knows why) in /private/etc/hosts

We need to dual sign our binaries with SHA1 and SHA2 using signtool.exe, our certificate supports 256-bit SHA2. Using the Windows 8 SDK's signtool: e.g.: signtool.exe sign /as /fd sha256 /t http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll /f "certificate.pfx" /p XXXXXXX "file.dll" (where XXXXXXX is our password for the certificate) fails with the cryptic error: SignTool Error: SignedCode::Sign returned error: 0x80070057 The parameter is incorrect. SignTool Error: An error occurred while attempting to sign: file.dll Signing without a timestamp works, signing individually as SHA1 or SHA256
