Windows 7 - Exception conn to old Repository on ntwk svr

Version 1.3.0.58

Machine is a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate over what was XP-Pro, using my original domain account et al, having used "Windows Easy Transfer" to port settings and all from XP to W7 via a USB Hard Drive.

SSMS can connect to the remore server. Remote Desktop is fine, too.

When I attempt to connect to the existing repository, I get a System.IO.IOException: The write operation failed, see inner exception. -->
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: The message or signature supplied for verification has been altered at System.Net.NTAuthentication.DecryptNtlm(Byte[] payload, Int32 offset, Int32 count, Int32 newOffset, UInt32 expectedSeqNumber)
followed by exception for System.Net.NTAuthentication.Decrypt
followed by exception for System.Net.Security.NegoState.DecryptData(... which is truncated in the "Alert Repository Setup" dialog.

HELP! The rebuilt PC is the Production Monitoring Machine...

If I remote to the repository machine, I can run SQL Response just fine...

    We've had a similar issue here at Red Gate (and from a bit of searching around on the internet, SQL Response isn't the only software that's been hit with this)

    Microsoft have issued a critical update to Windows Authentication via windows update which breaks comparability.

    If the AR is hosted on a server that hasn't had the latest security updates applied, Windows 7 clients will not be able to connect it. This only affects only XP or server 2003 AFAIK.

    We've found that applying the latest security updates to the server fixed the issue (you may need to reboot).

    Let us know if this fixes the issue, or if we need to investigate further.

    Cheers,

    Hey Guys! Do we know the KB number of the patch that this needs?

    Hi all,

    I found further information on this problem here:
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/vststest/thread/37861b71-1613-436d-93dc-8e7a46d6f4d4

    which suggests removing KB968389 and editing the registry followed by reboot.

    Was there any conclusion on which patch to apply to fix this? I'd much rather move forward than uninstall an existing patch which may well break something else in future.

    Regards,

    Jason

    Hi,

    I think the problem here is when some machines have http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969083 installed and some don't. If you are seeing this issue, we'd recommend ensuring the hotfix is deployed on all machine you are using with SQL Response.

    Cheers,

    My situation is similar. Hope to get it fixed soon.
