Java 7 update 21 (1.7.0_21) Enterprise Repackaged Security Medium Deployment with SCCM

Java 7 update 45 Enterprise deployment complete walk through
http://www.syswow64.co.uk/2013/10/java-7-update-45-enterprise-deployment.html
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The issue on many blogs and articles is around creating the 'deployment.config' and 'deployment.properties' files for an enterprise deployment.  In my case i wanted to set the security level to 'Medium', but everytime I open the Java control panel it was set to the default HIGH setting.


Solution

1 Create the following directory path 'C:\Windows\sun\java\deployment'
2 Create a file called 'deployment.config' in this directory and open with Notepad.
Copy the two line below

####################
deployment.system.config = file\:\\C\:\\WINDOWS\\Sun\\Java\\Deployment\\deployment.properties
deployment.system.config.mandatory = true
####################

3 Create a file called 'deployment.properties' in this directory and open with Notepad.
Copy the four line below (# deployment.security.level.locked optional)

######################
deployment.security.level=MEDIUM
deployment.browser.path=C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE
deployment.version=7.21
#deployment.security.level.locked
###########################
(without path and version, level will be ignored)

4 Delete C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\LocalLow\Sun

5 Delete: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AppDataLow\Software\JavaSoft\DeploymentProperties

6 Open Java from Control Panel.  You will find the security is now set to MEDIUM. If the lock was imposed, the user will not be able to adjust this setting as it will be greyed out.

    Jonathan,

    Thanks for this solution. It work on Win7x86 with Java 1.7 update 21 (32 bit) but the deployment.security.level=MEDIUM setting won't take effect on Win7x64 with Java 1.7 update 21 (32bit). Is there any update?

    Thanks,
    Reza Prawirasatya

      Review my latest post as the deployment security can be handled in an MST file.

      Property: WEB_JAVA_SECURITY_LEVEL
      Value: H

      The default setting is H so setting it is meaningless. Try using M on 7u21 and let me know if it works or if you can get system level deployment to work. Unfortunately I have to work with this version.

SCCM Unknown computer not able to see Task Sequences after installing Current Branch 1702

By
Soon after installing SCCM CB 1702 we were unable to see Task Sequences deployed to the unknown collection. This issue was identified as a random system taking the GUID of the 'x64 Unknown Computer (x64 Unknown Computer)' record. As a result it was now a known GUID; as we were only deploying Task Sequences to the Unknown collection none were made available. 'x64 Unknown Computer (x64 Unknown Computer)' record 'x86 Unknown Computer (x86 Unknown Computer)' record To get the GUID of your unknown systems open SQL management studio and run the following command: --Sql Command to list the name and GUID for UnknownSystems record data select ItemKey, Name0,SMS_Unique_Identifier0 from UnknownSystem_DISC Using the returned GUID (SMS_Unique_Identifier0) we can find the hostname that has been assigned the 'x64 Unknown Computer (x64 Unknown Computer)' GUID by running the query below. --x64 Unknown Computers select Name0,SMS_Unique_Identifier0,Decommissioned0 from Sys...

Windows 7 Offline files will not go Online when connected to network

By
Issue Several laptop users move between networks, domain, home, etc and when they attempt to access DFS shares explorer status is working offline.  The issue only resolves it self after a reboot. Connecting directly to the share works and i am able to ping network resources.  This behavior occurs for VPN users as well. Possible Causes "slow-link mode". In win7 (with default settings) a client will enter slow-link mode if the latency to the server is above 80ms. In slow-link mode all writes are made to the local cache and a background sync only happens every 6 hours.  Depending on your connection the default slow link detection speed is 64,000 bps On client computers running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2, a shared folder automatically transitions to the slow-link mode if the round-trip latency of the network is greater than 80 milliseconds, or as configured by the "Configure slow-link mode" policy. After transitioning a folder to the slow-link mode, Offline Fil...
