Session Keys. When a device joins the network (this is called a join or activation), an application session key AppSKey and a network session key NwkSKey are generated. The NwkSKey is shared with the network, while the AppSKey is kept private. These session keys will be used for the duration of the session.

Override session key in ASP.net?

Jan 24, 2011 11:03 PMKendallBLINK

The client takes its private key and the server’s public key and passes it through a mathematical equation to produce the shared secret (session key). The server takes its private key and the client’s public key and passes it through a mathematical equation to produce the shared secret (session key). Both these shared secrets are identical! The browser in return makes a pseudo-randomly generated symmetric from mouse clicks a key presses and encrypts the public key with it. On the other side, the site upon receiving the encrypted public key, uses its private key to decrypt it. I have genereted two equal session keys on client and server successfully. But I couldn't understand how each other should validate that they have same session keys. On the client I generated a SHA1 hash with equation p = SHA1(A B S) where A and B are public keys of client and server and S is the SHA1 hash of the session key. What’s the best way of generating a unique key, that can’t be guessed easily? I would like to create a unique key for both account activation and referral purposes, that includes a checksum to help prevent users from easily guessing other users activation or referral keys. Also, in PHP is it possible to create you own session key? Session key: A session key is an encryption and decryption key that is randomly generated to ensure the security of a communications session between a user and another computer or between two.

Hi Guys,

I am on the final stretches of putting together a complete system to get our new ASP.NET MVC code to co-exists with our legacy PHP code. By co-exists I mean that the PHP code and ASP.NET MVC code can both run on the same web site, and can share data. So we can add new code to the site using ASP.NET MVC, but still have the legacy PHP code working until it is replaced. The key to getting all this to work was to build a system to share session state between ASP.NET and PHP. Since both systems store the session data in different formats, the solution we landed on was to isolate key session variables that need to be 'shared' between the two code bases, and put those into a special shared section in our session tables, encoded in a common format. I am using JSON to encode the shared session variables, and now that I have it all working so that the ASP.NET and PHP code can both grok the same JSON formatted data, everything is working. Well, almost!

The problem I have run into is related to the session ID's. In PHP, if we have an existing session ID in the session cookie we tell PHP to go ahead and use that value, using the session_id() function:

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.session-id.php

Digital Signature

So the PHP code will happily use a session ID that was generated by the ASP.NET code, once we tell it to use that value. Clearly we had to override the session ID cookie on both PHP and ASP.NET to use the same cookie value, but once that is in place, PHP will happily pick up an existing ASP.NET session and start sharing it. The problem is it does not go the other direction; both PHP and ASP.NET use different algorithms to generate the session ID's, and PHP generates one that is 26 characters long and ASP.NET generates one thast is 24 characters long. But they are both unique.

The catch is that ASP.NET appears to be doing validation on the session identifier and can tell when the identifier was NOT generated by ASP.NET, and it won't use it. Rather it will simply generate a new session identifier so we lose all the information that was in the original session.

So right now everything works great if you first land on an ASP.NET page to start the session, but it all falls apart if you first land on a PHP page, or more importantly at the moment if you do a login via the PHP code because that code regenerates the session during login. Then the first ASP.NET page you hit after that will generate a whole new session, so we are back at square one.

So, to solve this problem there are really only a couple of options:

1. Find some way to tell ASP.NET that I *want* it to use the session ID I provide it, much like the session_id() function works in PHP. If I can do that, I can solve this very easily, but I cannot find anything that would indicate it is even possible.

2. Somehow write some PHP code that can generate a session identifier that is compatible with ASP.NET code. To do that, I need to find out what algorithm is used to generate the session identifiers in ASP.NET, so I could port it over to PHP.

3. A hack solution related to option 2) would be to have a special ASP.NET page that does nothing except generate a new session, and return the valid session identified to the caller. I could then call that with CURL from the PHP code when it needs to generate a brand new session ID, so that the session ID that is used will be accepted by ASP.NET.

4. Completely replace the entire session module in our ASP.NET code with a custom session module. I know it is possible, and most of it is already done with our custom session state provider anyway, but then I still need to find some code to generate a solid session ID anyway!

Any suggestions on how to solve this problem?

Syntax

Description

The New-PSSession cmdlet creates a PowerShell session (PSSession) on a local or remotecomputer. When you create a PSSession, PowerShell establishes a persistent connection to theremote computer.

Use a PSSession to run multiple commands that share data, such as a function or the value of avariable. To run commands in a PSSession, use the Invoke-Command cmdlet. To use thePSSession to interact directly with a remote computer, use the Enter-PSSession cmdlet. Formore information, see about_PSSessions.

You can run commands on a remote computer without creating a PSSession by using theComputerName parameters of Enter-PSSession or Invoke-Command. When you use theComputerName parameter, PowerShell creates a temporary connection that is used for the commandand is then closed.

Starting with PowerShell 6.0 you can use Secure Shell (SSH) to establish a connection to and createa session on a remote computer, if SSH is available on the local computer and the remote computer isconfigured with a PowerShell SSH endpoint. The benefit of an SSH based PowerShell remote session isthat it can work across multiple platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS). For SSH based sessions you usethe HostName or SSHConnection parameter set to specify the remote computer and relevantconnection information. For more information about how to set up PowerShell SSH remoting, seePowerShell Remoting Over SSH.

Note

When using WSMan remoting from a Linux or macOS client with a HTTPS endpoint where the servercertificate is not trusted (e.g., a self-signed certificate). You must provide a PSSessionOptionthat includes -SkipCACheck and -SkipCNCheck to successfully establish the connection. Only dothis if you are in an environment where you can be certain of the server certificate and thenetwork connection to the target system.

Examples

Example 1: Create a session on the local computer

This command creates a new PSSession on the local computer and saves the PSSession in the$s variable.

You can now use this PSSession to run commands on the local computer.

Example 2: Create a session on a remote computer

This command creates a new PSSession on the Server01 computer and saves it in the $Server01variable.

When creating multiple PSSession objects, assign them to variables with useful names. This willhelp you manage the PSSession objects in subsequent commands.

Example 3: Create sessions on multiple computers

This command creates three PSSession objects, one on each of the computers specified by theComputerName parameter.

The command uses the assignment operator (=) to assign the new PSSession objects to variables:$s1, $s2, $s3. It assigns the Server01 PSSession to $s1, the Server02 PSSession to$s2, and the Server03 PSSession to $s3.

When you assign multiple objects to a series of variables, PowerShell assigns each object to avariable in the series respectively. If there are more objects than variables, all remaining objectsare assigned to the last variable. If there are more variables than objects, the remaining variablesare empty (null).

Example 4: Create a session with a specified port

This command creates a new PSSession on the Server01 computer that connects to server port 8081and uses the SSL protocol. The new PSSession uses an alternative session configuration calledE12.

Before setting the port, you must configure the WinRM listener on the remote computer to listen onport 8081. For more information, see the description of the Port parameter.

Example 5: Create a session based on an existing session

This command creates a PSSession with the same properties as an existing PSSession. You canuse this command format when the resources of an existing PSSession are exhausted and a newPSSession is needed to offload some of the demand.

The command uses the Session parameter of New-PSSession to specify the PSSession saved inthe $s variable. It uses the credentials of the Domain1Admin01 user to complete the command.

Example 6: Create a session with a global scope in a different domain

This example shows how to create a PSSession with a global scope on a computer in a differentdomain.

By default, PSSession objects created at the command line are created with local scope andPSSession objects created in a script have script scope.

To create a PSSession with global scope, create a new PSSession and then store thePSSession in a variable that is cast to a global scope. In this case, the $s variable is castto a global scope.

The command uses the ComputerName parameter to specify the remote computer. Because the computeris in a different domain than the user account, the full name of the computer is specified togetherwith the credentials of the user.

Example 7: Create sessions for many computers

This command creates a PSSession on each of the 200 computers listed in the Servers.txt file andit stores the resulting PSSession in the $rs variable. The PSSession objects have athrottle limit of 50.

You can use this command format when the names of computers are stored in a database, spreadsheet,text file, or other text-convertible format.

Example 8: Create a session by using a URI

This command creates a PSSession on the Server01 computer and stores it in the $s variable. Ituses the URI parameter to specify the transport protocol, the remote computer, the port, and analternate session configuration. It also uses the Credential parameter to specify a user accountthat has permission to create a session on the remote computer.

Example 9: Run a background job in a set of sessions

These commands create a set of PSSession objects and then run a background job in each of thePSSession objects.

The first command creates a new PSSession on each of the computers listed in the Servers.txtfile. It uses the New-PSSession cmdlet to create the PSSession. The value of theComputerName parameter is a command that uses the Get-Content cmdlet to get the list ofcomputer names the Servers.txt file.

The command uses the Credential parameter to create the PSSession objects that have thepermission of a domain administrator, and it uses the ThrottleLimit parameter to limit thecommand to 16 concurrent connections. The command saves the PSSession objects in the $svariable.

The second command uses the AsJob parameter of the Invoke-Command cmdlet to start a backgroundjob that runs a Get-Process PowerShell command in each of the PSSession objects in $s.

For more information about PowerShell background jobs, seeabout_Jobs and about_Remote_Jobs.

Example 10: Create a session for a computer by using its URI

This command creates a PSSession objects that connects to a computer that is specified by a URIinstead of a computer name.

Example 11: Create a session option

This example shows how to create a session option object and use the SessionOption parameter.

The first command uses the New-PSSessionOption cmdlet to create a session option. It saves theresulting SessionOption object in the $so variable.

The second command uses the option in a new session. The command uses the New-PSSession cmdlet tocreate a new session. The value of the SessionOption parameter is the SessionOption object inthe $so variable.

Example 12: Create a session using SSH

This example shows how to create a new PSSession using Secure Shell (SSH). If SSH is configuredon the remote computer to prompt for passwords then you will get a password prompt. Otherwise youwill have to use SSH key based user authentication.

Example 13: Create a session using SSH and specify the port and user authentication key

This example shows how to create a PSSession using Secure Shell (SSH). It uses the Portparameter to specify the port to use and the KeyFilePath parameter to specify an RSA key used toidentify and authenticate the user on the remote computer.

Example 14: Create multiple sessions using SSH

This example shows how to create multiple sessions using Secure Shell (SSH) and theSSHConnection parameter set. The SSHConnection parameter takes an array of hash tables thatcontain connection information for each session. Note that this example requires that the targetremote computers have SSH configured to support key based user authentication.

Parameters

Indicates that this cmdlet allows redirection of this connection to an alternate Uniform ResourceIdentifier (URI).

When you use the ConnectionURI parameter, the remote destination can return an instruction toredirect to a different URI. By default, PowerShell does not redirect connections, but youcan use this parameter to enable it to redirect the connection.

You can also limit the number of times the connection is redirected by changing theMaximumConnectionRedirectionCount session option value. Use the MaximumRedirection parameterof the New-PSSessionOption cmdlet or set the MaximumConnectionRedirectionCount property of the$PSSessionOption preference variable. The default value is 5.

Specifies the application name segment of the connection URI. Use this parameter to specify theapplication name when you are not using the ConnectionURI parameter in the command.

The default value is the value of the $PSSessionApplicationName preference variable on the localcomputer. If this preference variable is not defined, the default value is WSMAN. This value isappropriate for most uses. For more information, seeabout_Preference_Variables.

The WinRM service uses the application name to select a listener to service the connection request.The value of this parameter should match the value of the URLPrefix property of a listener onthe remote computer.

Specifies the mechanism that is used to authenticate the user's credentials.The acceptable values for this parameter are:

• Default
• Basic
• Credssp
• Digest
• Kerberos
• Negotiate
• NegotiateWithImplicitCredential

The default value is Default.

For more information about the values of this parameter, seeAuthenticationMechanism Enumeration.

Caution

Credential Security Support Provider (CredSSP) authentication, in which the user credentials arepassed to a remote computer to be authenticated, is designed for commands that requireauthentication on more than one resource, such as accessing a remote network share. This mechanismincreases the security risk of the remote operation. If the remote computer is compromised, thecredentials that are passed to it can be used to control the network session.

Specifies the digital public key certificate (X509) of a user account that has permission to performthis action. Enter the certificate thumbprint of the certificate.

Certificates are used in client certificate-based authentication. They can be mapped only to localuser accounts; they do not work with domain accounts.

To get a certificate, use the Get-Item or Get-ChildItem command in the PowerShell Cert:drive.

Specifies an array of names of computers. This cmdlet creates a persistent connection(PSSession) to the specified computer. If you enter multiple computer names, New-PSSessioncreates multiple PSSession objects, one for each computer. The default is the local computer.

Type the NetBIOS name, an IP address, or a fully qualified domain name of one or more remotecomputers. To specify the local computer, type the computer name, localhost, or a dot (.). When thecomputer is in a different domain than the user, the fully qualified domain name is required. Youcan also pipe a computer name, in quotation marks, to New-PSSession.

To use an IP address in the value of the ComputerName parameter, the command must include theCredential parameter. Also, the computer must be configured for HTTPS transport or the IPaddress of the remote computer must be included in the WinRM TrustedHosts list on the localcomputer. For instructions for adding a computer name to the TrustedHosts list, see 'How to Add aComputer to the Trusted Host List' inabout_Remote_Troubleshooting.

To include the local computer in the value of the ComputerName parameter, start WindowsPowerShell by using the Run as administrator option.

Specifies the session configuration that is used for the new PSSession.

Enter a configuration name or the fully qualified resource URI for a session configuration. If youspecify only the configuration name, the following schema URI is prepended:https://schemas.microsoft.com/PowerShell.

The session configuration for a session is located on the remote computer. If the specified sessionconfiguration does not exist on the remote computer, the command fails.

The default value is the value of the $PSSessionConfigurationName preference variable on the localcomputer. If this preference variable is not set, the default is Microsoft.PowerShell. For moreinformation, see about_Preference_Variables.

Specifies a URI that defines the connection endpoint for the session. The URI must be fullyqualified. The format of this string is as follows:

<Transport>://<ComputerName>:<Port>/<ApplicationName>

The default value is as follows:

http://localhost:5985/WSMAN

If you do not specify a ConnectionURI, you can use the UseSSL, ComputerName, Port, andApplicationName parameters to specify the ConnectionURI values.

Valid values for the Transport segment of the URI are HTTP and HTTPS. If you specify a connectionURI with a Transport segment, but do not specify a port, the session is created with standardsports: 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS. To use the default ports for PowerShell remoting, specify port5985 for HTTP or 5986 for HTTPS.

If the destination computer redirects the connection to a different URI, PowerShell prevents theredirection unless you use the AllowRedirection parameter in the command.

Specifies an array of IDs of containers. This cmdlet starts an interactive session with each of thespecified containers. Use the docker ps command to get a list of container IDs. For moreinformation, see the help for thedocker ps command.

Specifies a user account that has permission to do this action. The default is the current user.

Type a user name, such as User01 or Domain01User01, or enter a PSCredential objectgenerated by the Get-Credential cmdlet. If you type a user name, you're prompted to enter thepassword.

Credentials are stored in a PSCredentialobject and the password is stored as a SecureString.

Note

For more information about SecureString data protection, seeHow secure is SecureString?.

Indicates that this cmdlet adds an interactive security token to loopback sessions. The interactivetoken lets you run commands in the loopback session that get data from other computers. For example,you can run a command in the session that copies XML files from a remote computer to the localcomputer. Diablo 3 cd key generator v3.01 skidrow chomikuj.

A loopback session is a PSSession that originates and ends on the same computer. To create aloopback session, omit the ComputerName parameter or set its value to dot (.), localhost, or thename of the local computer.

By default, this cmdlet creates loopback sessions by using a network token, which might not providesufficient permission to authenticate to remote computers.

The EnableNetworkAccess parameter is effective only in loopback sessions. If you useEnableNetworkAccess when you create a session on a remote computer, the command succeeds, butthe parameter is ignored.

You can also enable remote access in a loopback session by using the CredSSP value of theAuthentication parameter, which delegates the session credentials to other computers.

To protect the computer from malicious access, disconnected loopback sessions that have interactivetokens, which are those created by using the EnableNetworkAccess parameter, can be reconnectedonly from the computer on which the session was created. Disconnected sessions that use CredSSPauthentication can be reconnected from other computers. For more information, seeDisconnect-PSSession.

This parameter was introduced in PowerShell 3.0.

Specifies an array of computer names for a Secure Shell (SSH) based connection. This is similar tothe ComputerName parameter except that the connection to the remote computer is made using SSHrather than Windows WinRM.

This parameter was introduced in PowerShell 6.0.

Specifies a key file path used by Secure Shell (SSH) to authenticate a user on a remote computer.

SSH allows user authentication to be performed via private/public keys as an alternative to basicpassword authentication. If the remote computer is configured for key authentication then thisparameter can be used to provide the key that identifies the user.

This parameter was introduced in PowerShell 6.0.

Specifies a friendly name for the PSSession.

You can use the name to refer to the PSSession when you use other cmdlets, such asGet-PSSession and Enter-PSSession. The name is not required to be unique to the computer or thecurrent session.

How Is A Session Key Generated Windows 10

Specifies the network port on the remote computer that is used for this connection. To connect to aremote computer, the remote computer must be listening on the port that the connection uses. Thedefault ports are 5985, which is the WinRM port for HTTP, and 5986, which is the WinRM port forHTTPS.

Before using another port, you must configure the WinRM listener on the remote computer to listen atthat port. Use the following commands to configure the listener:

1. winrm delete winrm/config/listener?Address=*+Transport=HTTP
2. winrm create winrm/config/listener?Address=*+Transport=HTTP @{Port='<port-number>'}

Do not use the Port parameter unless you must. The port setting in the command applies to allcomputers or sessions on which the command runs. An alternate port setting might prevent the commandfrom running on all computers.

Indicates that the PSSession runs as administrator.

This parameter takes an array of hashtables where each hashtable contains one or more connectionparameters needed to establish a Secure Shell (SSH) connection (HostName, Port, UserName,KeyFilePath).

The hashtable connection parameters are the same as defined for the HostName parameter set.

The SSHConnection parameter is useful for creating multiple sessions where each session requiresdifferent connection information.

This parameter was introduced in PowerShell 6.0.

Indicates that the remote connection is established using Secure Shell (SSH).

By default PowerShell uses Windows WinRM to connect to a remote computer. This switch forcesPowerShell to use the HostName parameter set for establishing an SSH based remote connection.

This parameter was introduced in PowerShell 6.0.

Specifies an array of PSSession objects that this cmdlet uses as a model for the newPSSession. This parameter creates new PSSession objects that have the same properties as thespecified PSSession objects.

Enter a variable that contains the PSSession objects or a command that creates or gets thePSSession objects, such as a New-PSSession or Get-PSSession command.

The resulting PSSession objects have the same computer name, application name, connection URI,port, configuration name, throttle limit, and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) value as the originals, butthey have a different display name, ID, and instance ID (GUID).

Specifies advanced options for the session. Enter a SessionOption object, such as one that youcreate by using the New-PSSessionOption cmdlet, or a hash table in which the keys are sessionoption names and the values are session option values.

The default values for the options are determined by the value of the $PSSessionOption preferencevariable, if it is set. Otherwise, the default values are established by options set in the sessionconfiguration.

The session option values take precedence over default values for sessions set in the$PSSessionOption preference variable and in the session configuration. However, they do not takeprecedence over maximum values, quotas or limits set in the session configuration.

For a description of the session options that includes the default values, seeNew-PSSessionOption. For information about the $PSSessionOption preference variable, seeabout_Preference_Variables. For more information aboutsession configurations, see about_Session_Configurations.

Specifies the SSH subsystem used for the new PSSession.

This specifies the subsystem to use on the target as defined in sshd_config.The subsystem starts a specific version of PowerShell with predefined parameters.If the specified subsystem does not exist on the remote computer, the command fails.

If this parameter is not used, the default is the 'powershell' subsystem.

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent connections that can be established to run this command.If you omit this parameter or enter a value of 0 (zero), the default value, 32, is used.

The throttle limit applies only to the current command, not to the session or to the computer.

Indicates that this cmdlet uses the SSL protocol to establish a connection to the remote computer.By default, SSL is not used.

WS-Management encrypts all PowerShell content transmitted over the network. The UseSSLparameter offers an additional protection that sends the data across an HTTPS connection instead ofan HTTP connection.

If you use this parameter, but SSL is not available on the port that is used for the command, thecommand fails.

Specifies the user name for the account used to create a session on the remote computer. Userauthentication method will depend on how Secure Shell (SSH) is configured on the remote computer.

If SSH is configured for basic password authentication then you will be prompted for the userpassword.

If SSH is configured for key based user authentication then a key file path can be provided via theKeyFilePath parameter and no password prompt will occur. Note that if the client user key file islocated in an SSH known location then the KeyFilePath parameter is not needed for key basedauthentication, and user authentication will occur automatically based on the user name. See SSHdocumentation about key based user authentication for more information.

This is not a required parameter. If no UserName parameter is specified then the current log on username is used for the connection.

This parameter was introduced in PowerShell 6.0.

Specifies an array of ID of virtual machines. This cmdlet starts an interactive session with each ofthe specified virtual machines. To see the virtual machines that are available to you, use thefollowing command:

Get-VM Select-Object -Property Name, ID

Specifies an array of names of virtual machines. This cmdlet starts an interactive session with eachof the specified virtual machines. To see the virtual machines that are available to you, use theGet-VM cmdlet.

Inputs

System.String, System.URI, System.Management.Automation.Runspaces.PSSession

You can pipe a string, URI, or session object to this cmdlet.

Outputs

Notes

• This cmdlet uses the PowerShell remoting infrastructure. To use this cmdlet, the localcomputer and any remote computers must be configured for PowerShell remoting. For moreinformation, see about_Remote_Requirements.
• To create a PSSession on the local computer, start PowerShell with the Run as administratoroption.
• When you are finished with the PSSession, use the Remove-PSSession cmdlet to delete thePSSession and release its resources.
• The HostName and SSHConnection parameter sets were included starting with PowerShell 6.0.They were added to provide PowerShell remoting based on Secure Shell (SSH). Both SSH andPowerShell are supported on multiple platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS) and PowerShell remotingwill work over these platforms where PowerShell and SSH are installed and configured. This isseparate from the previous Windows only remoting that is based on WinRM and much of the WinRMspecific features and limitations do not apply. For example WinRM based quotas, session options,custom endpoint configuration, and disconnect/reconnect features are currently not supported. Formore information about how to set up PowerShell SSH remoting, seePowerShell Remoting Over SSH.
