UW Windows InfrastructureUW Windows Infrastructure
GoalGoal
Goal: To provide a centrally-provisioned Windows accounts to all of the UW campus
Guiding Principal: The UW Windows Infrastructure is an enabling technology
Core ComponentsCore Components
• Active Directory (netid.washington.edu)– LDAP directory AND KDC realm
• “Fuzzy Kiwi”, a kiwi client that provisions *all* UW NetIDs with an active Kerberos subscription
• Slurpee, a GDS connector, that synchronizes the enterprise group-oriented directory information
• WINS, a netbios name resolution service
Key FeaturesKey Features
• AuthN: Windows user accounts with UW NetID password that are automatically provisioned
• AuthZ: Automatically-provisioned institutional groups that can be used for authorization– 60K course groups– 7 affiliation groups (e.g. student, staff, faculty)– ~150 other groups, including C&C org groups
Get a trust.Use UWWI users and groups in your ACLs.Tell users.See http://www.netid.washington.edu/documentation/howToUse.aspx
How to AdoptHow to Adopt
Key LimitationsKey Limitations
• No delegated user management, i.e.– No home directory– No profile– No Exchange mailbox could be set, etc.
• Course groups are private, memberOf on *all* users is private
• NTLMv2 only for domain trusts; Kerberos & NTLMv2 only for forest trusts
• Account lockouts: 5 bad attempts in 1 minute -> 1 minute lockout
Expected Uses (for now)Expected Uses (for now)
• Provide Windows service to entire UW audience– File service– IIS– Sharepoint– Others …
• Interactive login to existing domain workstations
NOTE: Members of the UW community don’t need a computer in a domain that trusts UWWI to access a Windows service that is ACL’d with UWWI principals.
WinAuth ProjectWinAuth Project
• Arose out of C&C desire to move LABS out of UW Forest. This spawned outcry, a discussion group, and ultimately an C&C initiative to enable Windows-based services.
• “Phase 1” did the authentication and authorization pieces. Deemed doable without additional funding.
• “Delegated OUs” will make UWWI a nice place to live, phase out the UW forest, and provide other core Windows services as deemed necessary. Not currently funded.
Phase 1 Project DetailsPhase 1 Project Details
• Maintaining existing LABS functionality was paramount, EPLT was on project team to facilitate quick adoption. – Maintaining Mac authentication– Providing a replacement for “LABS\domain users”,
i.e. all users who used to be in LABS.• Kiwi code needed some enhancements• Slurpee needed to be written from scratch
Phase 1 Technical DetailsPhase 1 Technical Details
• “Fuzzy Kiwi”– Core is in C and helper app in C# (.net)– Handles account renames now w/o delete (preserving the SID)– Populates some person info from EDS/GDS– Uses a different delimiter to improve password handling– A new subscription maintains a group for EPLT authorization and
populates the UA (soon to be C&C) uid onto the uidNumber attribute• Slurpee
– VB.net– Automatically creates groups and updates them as appropriate (adds
and removals) on a daily basis (GDS is only updated 1x daily currently)– Gets affiliation information from eduPersonAffiliation attribute on
user objects in GDS. Uses this non-group-oriented info to create affiliation groups.
– Parses group member string, replaces with AD DN of member– Handles nested groups– Knows how to add objectclasses and attributes as needed– Knows how to set AD ACLs
“Delegated OUs” Details“Delegated OUs” Details
A charter is written, and a Strategic Direction Team (SDT) proposal has been approved. Defines resources (2 engineer FTE, 1 CliSvc FTE), outlines deliverables (core and additional), and approximates a timeline.
Core deliverables include:• Solve user management delegation issue• 2-way password sync?• Core infrastructure to enable Exchange• Provide domain migration strategy into UWWI• Phase out UW forest
Future Extended DeliverablesFuture Extended DeliverablesAfter the ‘Delegated OU’ project, additional services may be
pursued in follow-on projects depending on client interest. These include:
• Help Nebula to move in as first “occupant” as a proof of concept• Setup billing for anything that needs it• DDNS (ala nebula)• Ezreg services (wireless registration) • DFS/file services• VPN• CA/PKI• Unix interoperability• Mac authentication• ADFS• <Your favorite thing here>

domain count
domain compromise
State of UW ForestState of UW Forest
• Domain count: 21. C&C owns 5 of these, and will remove 3 within 6 months. From past conversations, 9 other domains have indicated in the past an intention to have moved out by now.
• 12 Domain compromises in past 4 years• Windows 2000 SP4 DCs: 18; Windows 2003 DCs: 28
• Windows 2000 Domain Level: 16; Windows 2003 Domain Level: 5
• Total number of users: 12141 (273730 w/ C&C domains leaving soon)
• Total number of computer: 6898• Domain size by users:
– <50: 3– 51-200: 6– 201-500: 5– 501-999: 4– >1000: 3
• Domain size by computers:– <50: 6– 51-200: 5– 201-500: 7– 501-999: 0– >1000: 3
Expected Migration PathExpected Migration Path
• Similar to C&C ‘How to Migrate Out of the Forest’ whitepaper http://www.washington.edu/computing/support/windows/UWdomains/migrateOut.html
• Use ADMTv3 user/group migration• Use ADMT computer migration wizard to reACL and move
computers without needing to touch each.– Registry– Profiles– File system– Local groups– Services– not scheduled tasks– not application-level credentials
Nebula NumbersNebula Numbers• 0 domain compromises over 10 year history• 0 Nebula managed server compromises (yes, C&C has a
managed servers service)• Users: 2323; Groups: 1388; Computers: 2816
– Gold (Nebula managed) workstations: 2452– Bronze (not managed by Nebula) workstation: 131– Kiosks: 61– Servers: 172 (31 unmanaged, 141 managed)
• 1 SG member + .25 engineer/250 workstations• 1 new software package/week• Cost:
– $52/month for Gold workstation– $58/month for Gold laptop– $26/month for BronzeDoesn’t include hardware, add ~$30/month for hardware
• 4.53 terabytes of network storage, 2.95 in use
Future Nebula ProjectsFuture Nebula Projects
• Exchange (this is a C&C service that some Nebula users may consume)• SCCM (SMSv4 and SoftGrid)• Vista• Office 2007• Dynamic local admin passwords (stage 1 done)• Laptop improvements• Managed Macs (research only)• CA for Nebula• Administrator account improvements• Kiosk revisit (dependent on vista)• New models to reflect impending UW Information Security StandardSee http://staff.washington.edu/barkills/Nebula-HiEd.ppt for a recent
overview of what Nebula provides in the managed workstation space.
