The query is regarding the DP API functionality.
I am using DP API Protect and Unprotect method to encrypt my string with a secret entropy. As per the information available on internet , a Master key is generated by DP API initially which is stored at Appdata\roaming\Microsoft\protect[SID]\"mymasterkeyfile" .
On program execution , SID folder is generated on my system but I am not able to find master key file. I Don't know why?
I am new to this so not able to understand the issue.
Any help appreciated,Thanks..
It's a (hidden) system file so adapt your folder settings to make these visible ( probably only to admins). In the Console (as admin) use dir /A:HS [folder] to see the files, which have long random names.

After I successfully installed APISIX, I found that the configuration file contains admin key information and all control requests need to contain this credential, do I need to change this configuration? How do I make the change take effect?
for security reasons, we would encourage any users to generate a different API key before using Apache APISIX, please check its documentation[1].
NOTE: API Key is only a string, you can generate a new one in your preferred way. For me, I would use https://www.random.org/strings/.

I am trying to create a flow in Power Automate Cloud that allows me to extract some files from Google Drive and copy them to a Sharepoint folder. But before copying it, it has to check by the file name, that the file does not already exist in the sharepoint folder. I have managed to do the whole flow, except the checking.
I would be very grateful for your help.
Thank you very much. Best regards.
A File exists action doesn't currently exist but you can use the Get file metadata using path action from the SharePoint connector to do the same sort of thing.
This flow below shows you an example of what you can do ...
For demonstration purposes, I've created an array with a list of file names (full path required) that I will then test the existence for.
One of those files doesn't exist.
I then loop through each one of those and try and get the metadata for each file.
If the resulting statusCode from the call to get the metadata is not equal to 200, then we know the file doesn't exist.
Examples ...
To make this work however, you need to make sure that the Condition step will execute after the metadata call no matter what the result.
Do this by making sure the Configure run after settings are correct ...
So after all of that, all you need to do is deal with the true and false sections of the condition.
I am storing a file on the public directory. If my file is a 100 character random string, could someone potentially find this file? Is there any way to protect the public directory for Laravel?
Do not attempt to do this. Security by obscurity is not a valid approach.
A few flaws to this approach:
If I knew the file existed, but not its name: I could try every combination to find it.
The web server may have an unknown flaw that allows directories to be listed?
If HTTPS is not utilized, anyone monitoring requests could see the file.
The best way would be to create a view that serves the file, stored outside the public directory(/storage), and secure the view with a single use token or login.
I was trying to deploy a simple TURN server using coturn.
When I test it on Trickle ICE (turn:rtc.jackxujh.me:3478 [webrtc:mighty]), Trickle ICE says "Authentication failed?".
The coturn server keeps reporting this error:
ERROR: check_stun_auth: Cannot find credentials of user
Here is the complete turnserver.conf I am using (by uncommenting lines of the coturn sample conf):
external-ip=39.108.74.114/XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX #(XXX is internal IP)
fingerprint
lt-cred-mech
use-auth-secret
static-auth-secret=XXXXXXXX... #(XXX is the secret)
realm=rtc.jackxujh.me
user=webrtc:0xXXXXXXXX... #(XXX is the key)
cert=/etc/letsencrypt/live/rtc.jackxujh.me/cert.pem
pkey=/etc/letsencrypt/live/rtc.jackxujh.me/privkey.pem
mobility
I find a related discussion on GitHub, but I don't feel there is a solution at the end.
In fact, I am confused whether my conf file is using TURN REST API or not.
Meanwhile, I tried to check if there was a user named webrtc in turndb, by using # turnadmin -l, but the output was nothing. (Is this command correct?)
In fact, I am confused whether my conf file is using TURN REST API or not.
I can confirm You use REST API because use-auth-secret is set
use-auth-secret
So you need to use a unixtimestamp as username, and the hashed password..
user=timestamp:userid
password=base64(hmac(secret key, user)
Read more about the difference of Long-Term-Credential and REST:
https://www.ietf.org/proceedings/87/slides/slides-87-behave-10.pdf
If you want to use normal username/password use the long-term-credential so remove use-auth-secret
and set it statically or in db
user=username1:key1
turnadmin
turnadmin -l
list static and db users.
So in case of REST is correct the empty list.
I'm trying to decide where the 'correct folder' to store documents and logs created by my windows form application. The application is used in education and has all paths held in the SQL server. Some (like logs file paths are shared) are accessible on network but specifically for temporary documents where should I default the storage to? I've recently tried the Users/username/AppData/ folder but I seem to be getting differing results after installation; so far I have put this down to people user credentials as often in schools they can do whatever they want (yes I know shocking indeed).
If anyone can point me in the direction of an MSDn article or knows better please reply - Thanks.
** Edit 10/09/2013 - Sorry all I should be further explicit. I'm looking for the folder / structure Microsoft has designed for this sort off activity. My application already provides users with the ability to create thier own working directories (there are several required) but I'm keen to use the 'correct' locations for this sort of activity... I thought the right place would be c:/Users/USERNAME/Appdata/APPLICATION FOLDER/ but as I mention I've come across a few access rights issues when uses install the application.... hope that explains better - thanks
To create temporary directory you can use something like this:
public string GetTempDirectory() {
string path = Path.GetRandomFileName();
Path.Combine(Path.GetTempPath(), path);
Directory.CreateDirectory(path);
return path;
}
Path class info
Directory class info
