The wireless network for W&L faculty, staff and students uses a technology called 802.1x, which provides security by encrypting all network traffic.

Some older computers do not support this technology. However, most modern, up-to-date wireless devices will run on the secure wireless network:

• Windows computers with security features enabled, including auto-updates, firewall and up-to-date operating system
• Macintosh computers with security features enabled, include firewall and up-to-date operating system
• Apple iPad and iPod Touch
• Most Smart Phones with wireless capability, including iPhone, Blackberry, and Android-type phones

Game devices such as the Xbox 360 and Wii and other special-purpose network devices such as the Roku do not function on the secure wireless network. For such devices, use a wired connection, or register them for use on the wireless network.

Please note that wireless is a limited resource, and that minor disruptions are common; see Statement on Wireless Service at W&L

Whenever possible, use the tool at http://wireless.wlu.edu  to configure your device for use on W&L's wireless network.

You may need to manually configure some devices. The settings are:

• SSIDD: WLUsec
• Wireless Encryption: WPA2 Enterprise
• Authentication Protocol: MS-CHAPv2/PEAP
• Outside tunnel authentication: This should be left blank
• Inside tunnel authentication: WLU Username and Password
• Security certificate verification: Equifax Secure Certificate Authority

1. Edit the following file:  /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf2. Copy and paste the following entries:

network={
     ssid="WLUsec"
     scan_ssid=1
     key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
     pairwise=CCMP TKIP
     group=CCMP TKIP
     eap=PEAP
     identity="WLU Username"
     password="WLU Password"
     ca_cert="/etc/ssl/certs/Equifax_Secure_CA.pem"
     phase1="peaplabel=0"
     phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"

3. Save the wpa_supplicant.conf changes
4. Restart the WPA supplicant with the following command: /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant restart5. Restart networking with the following command: /etc/init.d/network restart

If you right click on the files that do not work and look at the Security tab under Properties, the read permissions for the WWW user are missing.  This is the account that the web servers use to read the data.  Missing rights is usually caused by moving files between folders of differing security settings.  Within a volume, the file server does not recalculate rights on a move.  These files may have been dragged from elsewhere in the H: drive, and therefore did not receive the read permissions required.  The easiest way to prevent this is to use copy/paste instead of drag or move, since rights are always re-calculated when a file is created. 

To fix the existing files: 

1.       right click on the public_html folder

2.       select properties

3.       select security

4.       select advanced

5.       check the box “Replace permission entries on all child objects with entries shown here that apply to child objects”

6.       select OK

7.       select OK

This will force all the rights in the public_html folder to be recalculated.

1.     If that is the folder you want, you can move it or copy it to the new location by going to the Resources section, check the checkbox next to the folder name, and choose Copy or Move from the Actions menu.

2.     After you’ve clicked on Copy or Move, you need to select the “Show Other Sites” link at the bottom of the screen.

3.     Browse to the site where you’d like to copy or move your folder.  Click the checkbox next to the folder where you want the links folder to go (Probably the top level Resources folder) and select Paste Copied Items from the Actions Menu.

Version 40 of Firefox intentionally disables authenticated content embedded in unauthenticated web pages if the page and content are in different domains. 

This can be manually fixed by:

• typing “about:config” in the address bar
• clicking “I’ll be careful, I promise!”
• searching for the Preference Name:  network.auth.allow-subresource-auth
• Click the “1” next to that in the Value column and change to “2”

Once you refresh the page it will prompt for login. 

If one takes a W&L laptop that is in the W&L AD domain off campus and then attaches to a site that is in the IE 'Local Intranet' security zone, the laptop attempts to do pass-through integrated windows login.  However, this requires that the computer has direct access to an AD domain controller, which is blocked in the firewall.  Unfortunately, IE does not gracefully fall back to a username and password prompt in this case.

To configure IE to always prompt for a username and password:

1.       Open Internet Explorer

2.       Select “Tools”

3.       Select “Internet Options”

4.       Select “Security”

5.       Select “Local  intranet”

6.       Select “Custom level…”

7.       Scroll all the way to the last option and select “Prompt for user name and password”

8.       Select “OK” to exit both dialog windows

To re-configure IE once you are back on campus, follow the same procedure, but in step 7, select “Automatic logon only in Intranet zone”

Here are some of the most common symptoms and solutions to authentication failure to W&L web applications:

1. You are repeatedly presented with a login prompt, which never is successful.  You are using a personal computer, or are off campus.    Try entering your user name with the prefix "AD\" .  E.g.   AD\MyAccountName  .  W&L's Active Directory domain is named "AD".  This prefix tells the web server which domain to authenticate against.
2. The previous step does not work, but in the popup, you see an option similar to "Use Another Account".  Select that option, and use the AD\ prefix.  In this case, your browser is using your computer's name as the authentication domain, and is ignoring the AD\ prefix.
3. Has your W&L password expired?  Has it been more that one year since you changed it?  You may do so at http://password.wlu.edu.
4. You are using FireFox version 30.0 on a Mac or Linux workstation.  Release 30 breaks Windows authentication.  See the following for a fix: http://managementtools.wlu.edu/Help/Resources/1/271.pdf
5. You are using FireFox version 40, and accessing an unauthenticated page with authenticated content embedded in it.  This version of FireFox intentionally disables this if the page and content are in different domains.  You can configure Firefox to allow this, or use a different browser.
6. You are using Safari, and receiving the error "request body stream exhausted".  This is a bug with Safari authentication.  Use a different browser.
7. You are on an iOS device, recently updated to version 7.  This update breaks windows authentication for some iOS devices like iPhones or iPads.  Use another device.
8. You are never presented with a login prompt.  You are using Internet Explorer on a W&L computer, from off campus.  Integrated Windows login is failing because the browser can not communicate with a W&L AD Domain Controller from off campus.  Use another browser or temporarily disable Integrated Windows authentication: https://managementtools.wlu.edu/Help/Default.aspx?col=1&q=unable+log+login

If none of these solutions work, try going to http://MyVI.wlu.edu and opening a web browser from the APPS screen.  Then, you will effectively be using a W&L computer, and on campus.  This will bypass many issues associated with using personally owned computers.

Continue to use our system beyond the 250 minutes in each billing period at the same low price of 9 cents per minute. Use these minutes to call anytime of the day or night to anywhere in the U.S. Minutes not used during a billing period will not be carried over. International calls are not eligible for this plan.

Plan #2 is for the heavy user and has our lowest per minute rate. We will bill you a basic charge of $35 each month for 500 minutes of long distance calls within the U.S. That's 7 cents per minute. continue to use our system beyond the 500 minutes each billing period at the same low price of 7 cents per minute.

If you do not electronically sign and submit your time card to your supervisor, there is no web transaction to display for that pay period in the Time History screen on Webadvisor. What happens is your default work schedule, or days you entered manually, are pulled into payroll and the verifications are done through the normal payroll files. There is no detail from the web that was saved to reference. Also, at this point, any verification of hours or approvals needed are done by the Payroll Department in conjunction with your supervisor before you are paid.

Not at this time.

Go to Box.com and create a personal account using a personal email address, such as a gmail or yahoo account. in your W&L Box.com account, add that account as a collaborator on the files you'd like to move. Log into the personal account and download the files that you need to that account.

We do not provide copies of the address list for two primary reasons. 1 - it becomes a nightmare to troubleshoot issues as more and more out-of-date address lists are in use, 2 - if a machine holding these addresses gets infected with a virus that uses or collects addresses then our whole address list would be compromised.

If you need access to Colleague, please go to https://managementtools.wlu.edu/AccessRequest/ and request an account. Once the proper approvals are granted, an account will be set up for you. Accounts are set up on an individual basis and they should not be shared with anyone. In most cases, when dealing with course and student information, the Registrar’s office will provide some level of training or guidance on how to access the data you require.

If you already have access to Colleague but cannot remember your login information or have issues accessing the system, go to http://webhelpdesk.wlu.edu and create a ticket under the category of Administrative Data – Colleague Issues/Requests. Once submitted, the ticket will be automatically routed to the appropriate person who can help you resolve problems.

Send an email to help@wlu.edu providing the details--the name of the app and how you'd like to use it in your workflow. We'll review the app to see if it meets security requirements and get back to you.

This error may have been caused by opening four or more WebAdvisor hyperlink windows. For example, if a user is reviewing their budget and clicks on the Actuals, which opens a new window, then clicks on a Voucher, which opens a new window;  and the user does not close any of the child windows, and attempts to select another Actual, they will get the error.

All child windows must be closed using the CLOSE WINDOW button. If the user uses the browser's red X to close the windows, they will still get the error and be forced to log out and back in to WebAdvisor.

If this does not solve the problem you may need to review and then delete the webadvisor stored cookies.
