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copies of the address list for two primary reasons. 1 - it becomes a nightmare to troubleshoot issues as more and more out-of-date address lists are in use, 2 - if a machine holding these addresses gets infected with a virus that uses or collects addresses then our whole address list would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. |

Is email secure? (link) |
It all depends on what you’re trying to protect against. So, the simplest answer is 'no'! Email is not secure, unless you have taken extra steps to encrypt the message or the attachments (or both). Therefore, do not put confidential information (i.e., SSN, credit card number, etc.) in any email, unless you know it is encrypted. Briefly, access to your email account is secured by your username and password, so make sure you have a strong password. Email can be secured from network “snooping” by accessing it from a web page using Secure Socket Layers (SSL) – indicated by the “S” in HTTPS. If you access your email from your phone, then security depends on that device. These are just some of the variables/examples, and for more information please contact the Information Security Officer. |

How can I tell if an email is a phishing scam (security)? (link) |
Look at examples of e-mail received by W&L community members, and see if you can tell the difference between legitimate e-mail and "phishing" attempts in this interactive quiz: http://www.wlu.edu/x31191.xml
Phishing is the fraudulent use of e-mail to extract confidential information. Often such messages appear to come from legitimate sources such as your bank, or W&L, and ask for information such as account information and passwords. Information Technology Services will never ask you to divulge your W&L password.
Beware of any e-mail purporting to be from Information Technology Services asking for your W&L password. Any such e-mail is “phishing”: an attempt to steal personal information. ITS staff will never ask you for your password, via email, phone, or any other means. Remember, your password is your secret.
Never respond to e-mails asking for your W&L password or other personal information, such as bank account or social security numbers. Instead, please follow the procedures to report it to our spam filtering vendor, and then delete the email.
Please protect yourself:
* If you disclosed your W&L password in response to a phishing email, change your password immediately at http://password.wlu.edu
* Never disclose your password to anyone.
* Your W&L password should not be used for any service outside the University. |

Have the students create a thread, post their assignments as attachments and then have three other students post replies to those threads. If a student goes in and sees that a particular paper already has three replies, then she or he needs to look at another paper. I don’t think there’s a way you can enforce this automatically, you just have to tell the students to pay attention.

What devices are supported on W&L's secure wireless network? (link) |
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

Why can't I log on to a W&L authenticated web application? (link) |
Here are some of the most common symptoms and solutions to authentication failure to W&L web applications:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
- 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.
- You are using Safari, and receiving the error "request body stream exhausted". This is a bug with Safari authentication. Use a different browser.
- 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.
- 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. |

What do I do if Outlook no longer suggests (autocomplete) names when I type in an address field? (link) |
Background:
AutoComplete is a feature which displays suggestions for names and email addresses as you begin to type them. These suggestions are possible matches from a list of names and email addresses that you have typed before, known as the AutoComplete name list. The AutoCompletes name list saved as a file on the local machine.
Possible solutions:
-
Are you using your primary machine? AutoComplete Lists are saved per machine (locally). If you are not on your primary machine you will have a different list.
-
Was your machine rebuilt recently? If so your AutoComplete file may not have been copied over to the new build. In this case you will need to start building a new list.
-
Is AutoComplete turned off? To turn AutoComplete on:
-
go to the File menu
-
click Options
-
select the Mail tab
-
scroll down to 'Send messages' section
-
check the "Use Auto-Complete to suggest names when typing in the To, Cc, and Bcc lines" check box
-
Very rarely a AutoComplete list file gets corrupted and all suggestions disappear. If your new entries are being saved then continue to build your new list with use. If the list remains blank contact the W&L InfoDesk.

What is the IP address of the LifeSize video conferencing unit available in Leyburn Library? (link) |
The IP address of this device will vary based on the location where it is being used. If you need to know the IP address before the time of your conference, the unit will need to be connected to the network in your location prior to the time of your event. An IP address will be automatically assigned and displayed on the screen. You will then need to leave the device hooked to the network to retain that address. |

When off campus, why can't I log into a W&L application web site (like SharePoint) using Internet Explorer? (link) |
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” |
