If you take the error number passed back it will normally point you to the exact problem. In this case the Server_Info message passed back was 00000523. You can use the err.exe tool that can be down loaded from download.microsoft.com or convert the hex number to decimal, your choice to see what error was returned. In this case it is the following:
V:\tools>err 00000523 # for decimal 523 / hex 0x20b : SE_AUDITID_SECURITY_LOG_EXCEEDS_WARNING_LEVEL msaudite.h # The security log is now %1 percent full. # for hex 0x523 / decimal 1315 : ERROR_INVALID_ACCOUNT_NAME winerror.h # The name provided is not a properly formed account name. # 2 matches found for "00000523" V:\tools>net helpmsg 1315 The name provided is not a properly formed account name. The first hit is not the one we want as we know this is returned in hex and the second one tells you that you have tried to input an invalid account name as was mentioned below. So change the sam account name to one that does not contain illegal characters and you should be good to go at least to get past that error.

I'm not a pro but could it be related to mandatory attributes missing? I'm thinking maybe "nTSecurityDescriptor" and "objectSid". Although I could be way off if AD actually populates those attributes when the object is created ;) Just thinking out loud here.... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mayuresh Kshirsagar Sent: August 4, 2005 1:41 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Server_Info='00000523: SysErr: DSID-031A0FB2, problem 22 (Invalid argument), data 0. Hi All, I am using a meta directory to push mailbox users into active directory. I am stuck with the following: The adding of user entries to AD fails with the above error. The kind of entry that the meta directory is trying to add is as follows: ADD 'cn=ZZZGGG,OU=test,DC=gepurbsres01,DC=net' dn: cn=ZZZGGG,OU=test,DC=gepurbsres01,DC=net objectClass: person objectClass: organizationalPerson objectClass: user userAccountControl: 544 DisplayName: ZZZGGG, ANGUS cn: ZZZGGG, ANGUS givenName: ANGUS sn: ZZZGGG sAMAccountName: ZZZGGG, ANGUS-Test ADD Result Server_Info='00000523: SysErr: DSID-031A0FB2, problem 22 (Invalid argument), data 0.' Any clue as to how can I solve this problem? Thanks and Regards, Mayuresh.
