Using SCP to copy a file from Linux to Windows
I'm having an issue with scp to copy a file from Linux to Windows. I log into my remote Linux system and by using this command to copy any file in this case to Windows although Windows stalls when attempting to copy ? scp /home/ubuntu/myfile username@IP_of_windows_machine:/C:/Users/Anshul/Desktop From this link; https://stackoverflow.com/a/49229019/22063662
WiFi in Win11 issues in .3915
So i'm going crazy here and don't know where to go next, to Microsoft support or my internet provider... I've happily had Hyper-V on my Windows 11 Insider and some VMs i use for delivering trainings. Few days ago i noticed i no longer can connect to the internet on the VMs. Existing VMs, new VMs, VMs with past snapshots applied, etc.... no internet on the VMs, period. I tried creating new switches several times and nothing helps. However, although i don't need internet to deliver the trainings, when doing so at the university, i always use my host/laptop's internal card with a SIM in it and have no issues whatsoever with the internet in VMs. The SIM i have is from the same provider as my home cable is from. I just turned off my WiFi and connected the cellular network. Boom! VMs instantly have internet access. Turning on WiFi -> no internet again. So at this point i'm kind of stuck and not sure where to go for help. Obviously there is nothing wrong with my Windows OS in general, but there is an issue with the WiFi. On the host, i have no issues with the WiFi, internet is fine and working properly. I'm shutting down my laptop every night, so "restarting" did not fix it. Should i try resetting my router or go to Microsoft Windows support first? I think going to the internet provider has no benefit now, as they will blame the OS. Any thoughts?
Windows and its missing tagged VLAN Feature
Dear Microsoft, dear Community! I've been hoping and waiting for a tagged vlan feature built in to windows since... a decade? maybe two... I don't understand why, as of 2025, there still is a requirement for driver support or hyper-v vm nics in order to add multiple tagged vlan interfaces to a system? Its kind of my daily work to connect to several vlans via trunk ports. Linux, FreeBSD even MacOS: no problem at all. Why cant we get that functionality? I really wish that would make it to Windows: Is there any chance? I guess I am not the only one missing that feature. Kind regards P.s.: I don't mean to rant, I just don't have the necessary knowledge to understand why its so complicated or maybe even undesired to get that functionality built into the OS.How do I verify network endpoint connectivity.
Hi, Is there an easy way to verify internet endpoint connectivity. I come across this regularly where a product documents that I need to verify internet endpoint connectivity to various url's and ports. For example, for windows update: - this page https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/update/windows-update-troubleshooting has this entry - Ensure that devices can reach necessary Windows Update endpoints through the firewall. For example, for Windows 10, version 2004, the following protocols must be able to reach these respective endpoints: Protocol Endpoint URL TLS 1.2 *.prod.do.dsp.mp.microsoft.com HTTP emdl.ws.microsoft.com HTTP *.dl.delivery.mp.microsoft.com HTTP *.windowsupdate.com HTTPS *.delivery.mp.microsoft.com TLS 1.2 *.update.microsoft.com TLS 1.2 tsfe.trafficshaping.dsp.mp.microsoft.com How do I test that. obviously using ICMP is no test for verifying http, https or TLS connectivity. What is the process? I haven't found anything powershell to do it as everything seems to rely on ping. i figure for the standard addresses, I could do something like this for http Telnet address1.microsoft.com 80 but I figure Telnet is old school, there should be something newer around these days and also how do I test the entries with * on the front of the name how do I test TLS 1.2 I'm sure there are hundreds of tech support people out there doing this currently, somebody should be able to point me in the right direction.
Event ID 36871 error keeps logging in a repeating pattern
Hello, I accidentally came across the following error in Event Viewer: "A fatal error occurred while creating a TLS client credential. The internal error state is 10013." Source: Schannel Event ID: 36871 Process ID points to LSASS I filtered out the results to only reveal errors of the same source (Schannel), and the earliest record registered was nearly a month ago. However the first time it logged multiple entries during a single session and then never showed up again for about a month. The first entries also had a partially different message "The certificate received from the remote server was issued by an untrusted certificate authority. Because of this, none of the data contained in the certificate can be validated. The TLS connection request has failed. The attached data contains the server certificate." and a different event ID: 36882 More than 20 days later, the current error ID 36871 logged a single entry once and didn't show up again until a couple of days ago. Over the past two days it has been logging too many times (typically 8 entries per hour) and it repeats precisely in the same pattern. Today I'm starting to notice it's logging even more entries compared to yesterday, but also in a consistent pattern. I tried looking online for an explanation and a solution but everything I found was way beyond my limited technical understanding. All I could grasp (potentially) that it has to do with establishing secure connections with the server (I don't know which server are they talking about), with some pages mentioning something about .NET framework. Please note: I'm having this issue on a personal (unmanaged) laptop running Windows 10 Home (21H1), and typically connected to my home WiFi network. I would really appreciate if someone can help me with the following questions: For an average user (like myself), should I even worry about this error being logged on my laptop? Can I safely ignore it? (considering that I haven't noticed any performance issues or other problems, besides the error itself being logged) I recently installed the latest https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/june-21-2021-kb5003537-cumulative-update-preview-for-net-framework-3-5-and-4-8-for-windows-10-version-2004-windows-server-version-2004-windows-10-version-20h2-and-windows-server-version-20h2-and-windows-version-21h1-49ea0d2c-9328-4b01-a81e-1dc0b8d53548 Could it possibly be the one to blame for this type of error? I also tried checking all the other updates and changes I have done on my computer over the past month, but couldn't really find anything that particularly coincide with the error being logged in that pattern. I tried connecting my laptop to a mobile hotspot around the time when the error logs (according to the timely pattern I spotted). The error didn't log while being connected to that hotspot, but it appeared again shortly after I connected back to WiFi. Could that possibly mean the error has to do with the WiFi connection or my ISP rather than anything on the laptop iteself? Please help Update: I tried connecting my laptop to the same hotspot a bit longer, and after an hour the same error logged, but so far it only generated one entry.Static DCHP Address-Binding on Hyper-V Private vSwitches?
Recently got a new laptop with Windows 10 Pro. Prior to this, always used VirtualBox for locally-hosting VMs to do my development work on. Opted to try out Hyper-V since it's also free (and hopefully requires less-frequent reboots for hypervisor-driver updates). Initially, I set up my VMs to use an external vSwitch. However, external vSwitches require putting my wifi interface into bridge-mode. When in bridge mode, network performance goes in the trash - for both my VMs and my host: using various speed-testing tools, my connection-performance drops from 500Mbps-bidirectional to about 4Mbps down/200Kbps up. As a workaround, I switched to using private vSwitches and using connection sharing. This restored my host's connection-performance to their initial levels and sped my VMs' networking up to nearly the same speed, as well. Unfortunately, the cost seems to be that my VMs' IP addresses change regularly. Worse, if I go into the VMs and change to static IP addressing, the private vSwitch's gateway refuses to route. So, the question is, "how do I provide persistent address-binding to my Hyper-V VMs without trashing my networking-performance"? I've seen various posts about using external interfaces and changing driver-settings to disable the broken "optimization" settings associated with bridge-mode, but, those settings don't seem to be available when the base NIC is WiFi.
Windows 10 VPN and SQL with Meraki VPN
Hi, when our users connect to VPN (Windows 10 VPN on Meraki) they used to be able to access a client application on a SQL server host (a Windows 10 host)....but something recently happened on the host (uninstalled Norton security and it likely reset a bunch of stuff) and now client VPN users are no longer able to access that application....we can ping the SQL host from the client device after connecting to VPN but no longer access the application, so my guess its some Windows firewall port or protocol on the SQL server blocking the traffic when it sees the traffic coming in via VPN because it works fine within the network, and its not as permission issue as I put the same client device on the network and it can access the application without any issues. Any thoughts or ideas?
Networking issues since January 23 (approximately)
Hi everyone, I'd like to start by clarifying that the issue I have is happening on Insider builds (one PC in SLow, one in Fast), and I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. Here's the thing: Last week, on Thursday (I think), both of my laptops started indicating that my home Wi-Fi connection wasn't connected to the internet, despite my phone and other devices saying otherwise. What's more, despite the error, both my laptops could browse the web (using the new Edge) or check for updates. However, UWP apps like Unigram, OneNote, and To Do didn't work. I only actively use one laptop, so there are no settings I could have changed on both, and since they're on different versions of Windows 10, and neither got an update prior to the issue, so it was completely out of the blue. After running the network troubleshooter, resetting my router and modem, and updating drivers, nothing seemed to work. Eventually, though, my main lapto seemed to sort itself out on its own, and my secondary laptop, while it took a little longer, also stopped showing the error. However, I have now noticed that VPN apps based on UWP, like TouchVPN and the Store version of Avira Phantom VPN, always fail to connect, and that happens on both laptops. There are no limits I've reached, and the apps work on my phone. Likewise, the classic desktop app for Avira still works fine with Phantom VPN. Put short, it seems like there's something about UWP apps that's not working quite as it should. Though most apps are fine now, VPN apps based on UWP aren't working. I have no clue why, but I hope someone can help. Thanks in advance!
