Unless 
the firewall is needed, you should disable it. At least then you have removed 
one factor from the issue.

  [ActiveDir] Assigning permissions for domain user -- post Server 2003 sp1 
  upgrade
  I'm no longer
able 
  to assign permissions on a client to a domain user.
  
  When i open a 
  directory properties sheet, security tab and then press the Add btn, it
takes 
  a long time for the Users, computers  groups box to show. Then when i 
  select a user, the thing hangs.
  
  One other
simptom, 
  possibly related: it takes a looong time to pop up the runas box now from 
  anywhere on the client.
  
  I've not used
the 
  security wizzard, because you can't use it on a DC, so i activated the 
  firewall and manually opened a set of ports.
  
  The following is
  my partial list of portsa opened, those relevant to AD, 
  etc.
  
  
  53 DNS 
  (TCP/UDP)
  
  
  88 Kerberos 
  (TCP/UDP)
  
  123 NTP (UDP) (??)
  
  
  464 Keberos password change 
  (TCP/UDP)
  
  I
  also have all the appropriate ports for file-sharing; working well for the 
  shares where permissions are already set up.
  
  The 
  network is really very basic; i have one server/one client. It's actually a 
  development environment; i need AD to mimick one of my 
  clients.
  
  I
  also have ASP.NET and SQL Server on the server; they are working well, 
  including ASP.NET debugging.
  
  Thanks for any suggestions!
  
  Steve

[ActiveDir] 675 events [Account Logon]

2005-04-07 Thread Ruston, Neil
Earlier today, a DC was found at 85-95% CPU. It was also noted that there were 
continuous 675 events for one user account:

Event Type: Failure Audit
Event Source:   Security
Event Category: Account Logon 
Event ID:   675
Date:   4/7/2005
Time:   8:43:49 AM
User:   NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer:   x
Description:
Pre-authentication failed:
User Name:  yyy
User ID:\yy
Service Name:   krbtgt/
Pre-Authentication Type:0x2
Failure Code:   0x18
Client Address: a.b.c.d

 
[We don't really have a user with ID yy - I have changed names to protect 
the innocent :) ]

The users machine was switched off and CPU dropped from 90% to 75% and then 
down to the 50% range!

Any ideas how we might explain this behaviour?

Is this an account lockout type issue?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Staring a new thread from the original post, as I am going to address this from 
a troubleshooting methodology perspective, not a take a swing and perhaps one 
hit out of the park perspective.

My approach to slow logon:
1) I always start with a userenv log (logging set to 10002). I then take the 
log, and begin looking for gaps of time in the log, to perhaps understand 
components that are being slow during user init.
2) If I don't immediately see an answer in the userenv, or at least a starting 
point (can go either way depending upon the case) I go with two pieces of data: 
userenv + network trace. Network trace can be tricky, given that you can't take 
it on the clientthe client hasn't logged on yet. :) Typically, I take the 
client machine and throw it on a silly little hub, and on that hub also place 
another machine which I take a trace from. Start the trace (some larger buffer, 
say 50MB or so), then boot the client + log on to the client, and I don't 
usually stop the trace until the logon is complete.

From there, you can line up gaps of time in the userenv log to what was
going over the wire. I find this approach more fruitful than just taking a 
trace and trying to guess where the problem is.

One domain on one DC - 2000 Server SP3. Considering an in-place upgrade to
2003 domain and OS. Technically, there is only one server available at this
time for the upgrade.

Will I simply run /forestprep and /domainprep, winnt32.exe
/checkupgradeonly, winnt32.exe (from 2003 CD)?

Any tips or anything I should watch out for?

2005-04-07 Thread Carerros, Charles

We ended up using 1412 for ours.  Took a little bit of testing though. We
started at 1300 and then worked up way to to get the largest size possible.

I used a small application that gives you a GUI interface.  I haven't looked
at scripting it into logon scripts yet. 

If you want the GUI tool, drop me an e-mail off line.  I got it off the
internet but I don't recall the web URL.

I'd suggest 1400 as a good setting.

The problem is that the VPN encapsulation adds size to the packets (like 60
bytes IIRC) and that can kick it over the top of the MTU of the links.

 Do they use a different logon script as everyone else or 
 could the logon script have an additional program that might

This sounds very much like an issue we had and the problem had to do
with UDP packet fragmentation.  Perhaps you can try the following
Kerberos change.  If it doesn't work, remove it.

Add the following Value to the registry on one of the remote
workstations, reboot and try again:

HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/LSA/Kerberos/Parameters/MaxPacketS

login to it takes forever, but if someone else logs into that PC, they
log on quickly with no problems.

I have already run netdiag and everything passed, I have deleted the
local profile on the computer, disjoined and rejoined the domain,
changed the network card, provided a different IP address, verified I
can access \\domainname\sysvol\domainname and rebooted the PC as well as
all the domain controllers and the routers inbetween the sites.  No

What else could be happening here?

[ActiveDir] Extremely Weird Problem

2005-04-07 Thread Schmieder, Marc








Has anyone ever seen this? Our Audit settings in both our
lab and production environments are changing themselves automatically. When we
set them to the settings we would like, the settings actually switch back and
increment the version # on the policy! Ive been on the phone with
Microsoft for hours and hours at this point and they have never heard/seen this
before. The audit settings are the only setting that seem to change. All
others stay the way we set them. I can give more info if needed. I just want
to know if anyone every heard of this.



Thanks,



Marc Schmieder

... presumably this sets the limit for Kerberos UDP packets, before TCP is used 
instead? or does it simply reduce the max packet size so as to minimise 
fragmentation of those packets?

This sounds very much like an issue we had and the problem had to do with UDP 
packet fragmentation.  Perhaps you can try the following Kerberos change.  If 
it doesn't work, remove it.

Add the following Value to the registry on one of the remote workstations, 
reboot and try again:

HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/LSA/Kerberos/Parameters/MaxPacketS

It set's the limit for UDP packet size before TCP is used instead to
make sure UDP stuff can be contained, with overhead, within one
standard ethernet packet.

I sent my reply before I saw the VPN reference, so I'm not sure it
applies now.  But it won't hurt to try and as I said, if it doesn't
improve the situation, to remove it.

Staring a new thread from the original post, as I am going to address this
from a troubleshooting methodology perspective, not a take a swing and
perhaps one hit out of the park perspective.

My approach to slow logon:
1) I always start with a userenv log (logging set to 10002). I then take the
log, and begin looking for gaps of time in the log, to perhaps understand
components that are being slow during user init.
2) If I don't immediately see an answer in the userenv, or at least a
starting point (can go either way depending upon the case) I go with two
pieces of data: userenv + network trace.
Network trace can be tricky, given that you can't take it on the
clientthe client hasn't logged on yet. :) Typically, I take the client
machine and throw it on a silly little hub, and on that hub also place
another machine which I take a trace from. Start the trace (some larger
buffer, say 50MB or so), then boot the client + log on to the client, and I
don't usually stop the trace until the logon is complete.

From there, you can line up gaps of time in the userenv log to what was
going over the wire. I find this approach more fruitful than just taking a
trace and trying to guess where the problem is.

Question, 

 

Hopefully this wont sound too newbie! 

Domain is 2003 native mode 6 domain controllers in 3 sites. 

I've turned up logging in the registry to a value of 2 on the server that
holds the PDC Emulator role. 

I have also set success and failure auditing in the default domain GP on all
objects. 

 

I created an account for testing then I deleted that account but I can't see
a reference to the deletion anywhere? 

Where will I see a reference to the deletion? Wouldn't I find that in the
Security log? 

 

Like I said sorry for the newbie question... 

 

Thanks in advance

this may be a bug from doing an in place upgrade of an NT 4 domain. I'll
try applying 2003 server sp1 and see if it fixes this. It's probably
best to not use a LANMANGER boot disk and just go to a WINPE boot disk
that supports NTLMv2 and SMB signing.

several

I changed the domain controller and  domain security policy to allow LAN
manager authentication and I disabled SMB signing.  The server I am
using
for imaging is a 2000 member server to AD 2003 is and the AD controllers
are
in native mode. Would any one happen to know what else I need to disable
in
the domain controller security policy to allow a DOS boot disk to
authenticate ?
 
Also, I found that If I remove the imaging server from the domain
authentication works with the boot disk. Any suggestions would be
greatly
appreciated.

Title: Message



That 
is an extremely weird problem. You did not explain that you were working 
on the default domain controller policy in your highest (only?) domain. I 
was presuming that you were working on an OU group policy for the member 
servers. If that was the case, the domain policy could override the OU 
policy if the 'No override' box was checked.

How 
many domain controllers do you have in operation within the domain? My 
next thought is one of the DCs is not synchronizing properly and is resetting 
the audit values and increasing the policy version #.

higher level GPO that may have these settings configured the way they are 
changing back to? My only other thought would be another person with 
permission to change the policy is changing it 
back.

Has anyone ever seen this? Our 
Audit settings in both our lab and production environments are changing 
themselves automatically. When we set them to the settings we would like, 
the settings actually switch back and increment the version # on the 
policy! Ive been on the phone with Microsoft for hours and hours at this 
point and they have never heard/seen this before. The audit settings are 
the only setting that seem to change. All others stay the way we set 
them. I can give more info if needed. I just want to know if anyone 
every heard of this.

Yes, I have seen this document... Thank you so much for the suggestion, this
may be a bug from doing an in place upgrade of an NT 4 domain. I'll try
applying 2003 server sp1 and see if it fixes this. It's probably best to not
use a LANMANGER boot disk and just go to a WINPE boot disk that supports
NTLMv2 and SMB signing.

I assume you've seen this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325379

And since you've already disabled SMB signing the next step would be turn on
auditing and check for and correct the errors you see.

Greetings, 
 
We just upgraded out NT 4 servers to Windows 2003 server and  the migration
went as well as can be expected, however I am  now trying to image several
servers using Power Quest's drive image pro with a boot disk that uses LAN
manger and I can no longer authenticate against AD. 

I changed the domain controller and  domain security policy to allow LAN
manager authentication and I disabled SMB signing.  The server I am using
for imaging is a 2000 member server to AD 2003 is and the AD controllers are
in native mode. Would any one happen to know what else I need to disable in
the domain controller security policy to allow a DOS boot disk to
authenticate ?
 
Also, I found that If I remove the imaging server from the domain
authentication works with the boot disk. Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.

RE: [ActiveDir] Extremely Weird Problem

2005-04-07 Thread Schmieder, Marc
Title: Message








First of all we are seeing this in the lab
AND in production. In the lab, we have 2 DCs in the root domain and 1 DC
in the child domain. There were 2 in the child, but we removed it to test if
that kept the policies from changing. This, so far, has fixed it, but that isnt
a real resolution for the production environment. In the Lab root domain, when
I make a change, then version/time are incremented properly. Then I force
replication and check to make sure each DC has the proper version. That works
fine. Then 3 minutes later the version on the policy is incremented again by 1
and the policies have reverted back! Unbelievable isnt it?

That is an extremely weird problem.
You did not explain that you were working on the default domain controller
policy in your highest (only?) domain. I was presuming that you were
working on an OU group policy for the member servers. If that was the
case, the domain policy could override the OU policy if the 'No override' box
was checked.











How many domain controllers do you have in
operation within the domain? My next thought is one of the DCs is not
synchronizing properly and is resetting the audit values and increasing the
policy version #.

[ActiveDir] DC location queries

Title: DC location queries





I would like to ask for confirmation relating to the below scenarios and DC location:


1. Client in site with no DCs installed
Client receives list of DCs which have registered SRV records on behalf of that site


2. Client in site with a DC but that DC is unavailable
Client requests list of DCs registered at the domain level


3. Client in unknown site
Client receives list of DCs associated with the defaultFirstNameSite


We have only hub sites register as per point 2 and the default site has been renamed. How do I determine which site has assumed the role of the default site?

Re: [ActiveDir] DC location queries

2005-04-07 Thread James_Day
Hi Neil

In you domain DNS zone you will see a list of the sites in the _SITES
folder.  Inside that are the site names and an _tcp folder.  This contains
the SRV records that are registered for that site.  Once a client is site
aware (after first logon) my understanding is this.
1) The client queries DNS for a list of DCs in its site.  It will then try
them in a random order.  If nothing is returned, or this fails...
2) The client will query DNS for a list of DCs in the domain.  It will then
try them in a random order with (I believe) 100ms time out for each before
contacting the next.

Gil Kirkpatrick wrote a very good article on controlling this topology with
SRV record priorities (ie.lower records are provided first and when they
time out remaining records are provided), and on setting manual site
coverage.
http://www.windowsitpro.com/Windows/Article/ArticleID/37935/37935.html

We have used this somewhat, setting the SRV record value for all DCs to 16,
except for our hubsite (left at the default value of 0) for the domain.  In
our scenario the client will
1) Check the site, if there is nothing.
2) Check the hubsite, if they both time out
3) Check every other DC in the domain.

Hope this helps;

Hopefully this wont sound too newbie! 

Domain is 2003 native mode 6 domain controllers in 3 sites. 

I've turned up logging in the registry to a value of 2 on the server
that
holds the PDC Emulator role. 

I have also set success and failure auditing in the default domain GP on
all
objects. 

 

I created an account for testing then I deleted that account but I can't

Where will I see a reference to the deletion? Wouldn't I find that in

Like I said sorry for the newbie question...

[ActiveDir] W2K3 Forest trust w/Netdom

2005-04-07 Thread Carrara, Greg
Hello!
I'm trying to create a one way trust between two domains install.com and
test.com.  I need install.com to be the user domain and test.com to be the
resource domain.  I've added both to DNS and have upgraded both domain to
W2K3 Server forest functionality mode. I can successfully create a
transitive forest to forest utilizing the AD domains and trusts GUI.  My
problem, however, comes when I try to utilize Netdom to create a forest
trust.  I can successfully use the command:

Netdom trust install.com /domain:test.com /UserD:Administrator /PasswordD:*
/UserO:Administrator /PasswordO:* /PasswordT:* /Add

This creates an external trust between the two domains that is
nontransitive.  I need a transitive forest trust.  I tried adding the
switches /Transitive:Yes and /ForestTransitive:Yes, to make it transitive,
but they error out stating that this is for non-Windows Kerberos realms
only.  I haven't found a way to specify a forest trust.

My question is: can you create a transitive forest trust using netdom, and
if not, is there another utility for successfully doing this from the
command line?

Thanks!

That can be explained by sdprop which runs every 60 mins on the PDCe. It sets

How about setting up auditing on the PDC emulator DC for

First of all we are 
seeing this in the lab AND in production. In the lab, we have 2 DCs in 
the root domain and 1 DC in the child domain. There were 2 in the child, 
but we removed it to test if that kept the policies from changing. This, 
so far, has fixed it, but that isnt a real resolution for the production 
environment. In the Lab root domain, when I make a change, then 
version/time are incremented properly. Then I force replication and check 
to make sure each DC has the proper version. That works fine. Then 3 
minutes later the version on the policy is incremented again by 1 and the 
policies have reverted back! Unbelievable isnt it?

That is an extremely 
weird problem. You did not explain that you were working on the default 
domain controller policy in your highest (only?) domain. I was presuming 
that you were working on an OU group policy for the member servers. If 
that was the case, the domain policy could override the OU policy if the 'No 
override' box was checked.



How many domain 
controllers do you have in operation within the domain? My next thought is 
one of the DCs is not synchronizing properly and is resetting the audit values 
and increasing the policy version #.

RE: [ActiveDir] Change Password Policy

2005-04-07 Thread Darren Mar-Elia



The last time I checked, you could put a block inheritance 
on the Domain Controllers OU and this would block processing of a domain-linked 
GPO--even for account policy. In that case, the DCs simply use the default 
account policy that exists at that time. Obviously not a good thing to do. One 
thing I often do is, for whatever GPO islinked to the domain that enforces 
Account Policy, I set it to Enforced (No Override) to ensure that doesnt' 
happen.

Something strange - if you download the MS Security Templates from the

Maybe

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/library/ServerHelp/bb99fdd4-f8e0-490f-adae-6814cf081ff7.mspx

For domain 
accounts, the account policy must be defined in the Default Domain Policy Group 
Policy object (GPO) or in a new GPO that is linked to the root of the domain and 
given precedence over the Default Domain Policy GPO, which is enforced by the 
domain controllers that make up the domain. If more than one GPO containing 
account policy settings is linked at the domain level, the domain's account 
policy consists of the cumulative policy settings from all the domain-linked 
GPOs. 
A domain 
controller always obtains the account policy from a GPO linked to the domain, 
which by default is the Default Domain Policy GPO. This behavior occurs even if 
a different account policy is applied to the organizational unit (OU) that 
contains the domain controller. By default, workstations and servers joined to a 
domain (such as member computers) also receive the same account policy for their 
local accounts. However, local account policies for member computers can be 
differentiated from the domain account policy by defining an account policy for 
the OU that contains the member 
computers.

[ActiveDir] Time Sync between Forest Root and Child Domains

2005-04-07 Thread Justin_Leney

This should be a simple thing to do,
but it's driving me up the wall. Here is what I would like to do: 

1) Sync my PDCE in my forest root with
a reliable internet time server 

2) Have my other domain controllers
in the forest root sync with the PDCE 

3) Have the PDCE's in my child domains
sync with the forest root PDCE 

I should be able to do this via Net
Time, but so far I am getting no joy. 

Here us the problem: 

1) Windows 2003 root domain

2) PDCE, and all other domain controllers
in the root domain, keep synching with the first W2K3 server introduced
in the root domain. This happens to be a virtual machine...

3) On the PDCE and all other domain
controllers in the root domain, using net time /DOMAIN:(netbios name of
our root) does not help. Still synced with this VM. 

Any suggestions? This should not be
this diffucult

RE: [ActiveDir] AD logging

2005-04-07 Thread Mulnick, Al
It gets logged in the security log of the domain controller.  Once you turn
on this logging, it's a lot of events for every action, so be careful to
ensure that your event logs can handle it.  

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windowsserver2003/library/Serve
rHelp/5658fae8-985f-48cc-b1bf-bd47dc210916.mspx

Event ID 624 = Create Success Audit Entry
Event ID 630 = Delete Success Audit Entry


It would be a good idea to undo any changes you've made up until now to be
sure you're not confusing anything.  Also, remember that this is a GPO
setting so you'll want to be sure it applied to the domain controllers.

Eventtriggers.exe might be useful for tracking this if you don't have
something moving your log files over to another format.

Yes I saw Eric's post, which does make sense; my real problem is I have
accounts once a week for the past 2 months that literally disappears from
AD... I have removed everyone but myself from all privileged groups; I've
had all my admins reset passwords, I've made sure no scripts are running
that would cause this to happen. I've even removed all logon scripts. I've
never seen user accounts just disappear like this...

So I set up a few test account then deleted them, I want to see where this
gets logged to help me troubleshoot why other accounts see to just
vanish?!?!

Question, 

 

Hopefully this wont sound too newbie! 

Domain is 2003 native mode 6 domain controllers in 3 sites. 

I've turned up logging in the registry to a value of 2 on the server that
holds the PDC Emulator role. 

I have also set success and failure auditing in the default domain GP on all
objects. 

 

I created an account for testing then I deleted that account but I can't see
a reference to the deletion anywhere? 

Where will I see a reference to the deletion? Wouldn't I find that in the
Security log? 

 

Like I said sorry for the newbie question... 

 

Thanks in advance

RE: [ActiveDir] time sync script

2005-04-07 Thread Stelley, Douglas
I modified my original script and created this new one (enclosed)
The only thing it will ask is what you want the log file to be (example:
c:\time.csv)
Assuming it will be run against a Domain, it will query against
non-disabled Computers and Net Time them.
The query is a standard LDAP:
((objectClass=Computer)(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2))
I used against several domains and it seemed to work without a hitch. 
I commented out the on error resume next to check for errors, found
none.

Are you sure that he is not using ADMIT Mac on the Mac Clients? To my knowledge 
the version of Samba www.samba.org in Panther does not support authentication 
using NTLM v2, please look at the Panther vs  Admit Mac comparison at: 
http://www.thursby.com/products/admitmac-vs-panther.html Can you ask your admin 
which apple doc he used to get this to work? 

Are you sure that he is not just using Macintosh file service ( NT has had this 
since NT 3.51 and it supported Ethertalk ) on the Windows servers? If so this 
not the same thing that we are trying to accomplish with Active Directory 
member server binding.

Hey Tom...

In W2k3, you can set the rights...

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;323076

On 2000, and 2003 there is a policy setting in the local user rights
assingments manage auditing and security log  Which can be set to a
global group.  However, you have to be careful with this.  Some things have
to apparently access the log and might not have the rights.  Im going to
guess SP's would, along with other weird problems you might experience.  We
tried it on XP boxes here so that security was the only ones that could
access it,  and found out we couldn't run system restore, and apply some
patches without being in the group.  We ended up setting it back to the
default on the clients.

SMB signing has nothing to do with binding the machine to the directory.
That only has to do with mounting shared drives on windows machines,

What's to change? Put an http redirect page on port 80 and redirect to
443 -
they'll never know the difference.

RE: [ActiveDir] event viewer access

2005-04-07 Thread Kern, Tom
Thanks.
I took a look at the article and oddly enough, I don't have any of those 
settings in the local group policy on my win2k3 enterprise member server.

Also, I take it there is no group policy to block  read access to the app and 
system log on a win2k server?

Finally, does anyone know what the default acl is on the 
system,app,dns,directory services,etc logs in win2000? what user groups can 
read a remote event log in the local and remote domains?
thanks alot

Hi Tom...

The article says you have to enable these settings:


 Important: To view the group policy settings that are described in this
 article in the Group Policy editor, first complete the following steps,
 and then continue to the Use Group Policy to Set Your Application and 
 System Log Security section:  



 1. 
 Use a text editor such as Notepad to open the Sceregvl.inf in the  
 %Windir%\Inf folder.   
 2. 
 Add the following lines to the [Register Registry Values] section: 
 MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Application\CustomS

 Service event log 
 4. 
 Save the changes you made to the Sceregvl.inf file, and then run the   
 regsvr32 scecli.dll command.   
 5. 
 Start Gpedit.msc, and then double-click the following branches to  
 expand them:   
 Computer Configuration 
 Windows Settings   
 Security Settings  
 Local Policies 
 Security Options   
 6. 
 View the right panel to find the new Eventlog settings.  





There is nothing I know of to do it in 2000.

Hi Matt, 

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I did use the AD DNS server's, however 
I must have a configuration problem ( I was at Mac World a few months back and 
asked several people about this and I found no one that actually had it work 
onv Active Directory 2003 unless they used ADMIT MAC ).  

Would it be possible for you to make screen captures of your client 
configuration and send them to me directly, I would really appreciate it.

Regards, 

Jose Medeiros

If you having trouble binding with an Admin Account using the built in

I have been using it with just the standard Mac Active Directory plug-in for
the past year in most of my labs.  It works very well, my only problem is
for some reason it's only letting me add them to the domain using a Domain
Admin account unless I pre-create the computer account in Active Directory. 

I'd like to allow a group to add them, so my lab managers can add and remove

Seems you can also use that syntax GUID= as the argument to -b in
ADFIND, which makes sense, and is nice to know.

Is this because that attribute's syntax is an Octal string?  I'm just
curious...not knowing too much about the way these things are stored!

Do I leave in the dashes? I pulled the guid from an error i've been getting

When i enter the guid in ldp, I get this-

Did you try removing the computer account from Active Directory OU that it 
resides and synching the active directory controllers before rejoining the 
workstation to the domain?

If not you may want to try this again.

Seems you can also use that syntax GUID= as the argument to -b in
ADFIND, which makes sense, and is nice to know.

Is this because that attribute's syntax is an Octal string?  I'm just

[ActiveDir] Filtering for GPO's

2005-04-07 Thread Cothern Jeff D. Team EITC
I have been looking at different ways I could filter a GPO.  Basically
here is the scenario.  We are starting a migration to XP here shortly.
Currently users on 2000 workstations.  There are some specific policies
that change the way we do business on the XP machines that I want to
ensure do not effect the 2000 workstations. I thought of WMI filtering
but according to the GPMC_administering.doc, 2000 will ignore the
filtering and apply the GPO anyways.  So that wont work.  If I put all
the 2000 workstations into a group and denied apply rights to that GPO
would it keep that GPO from running if a user signed into the 2000
machine.  But it would apply If the user signed into an XP machine.  The
policies are on the User side of the GPO.  

Thanks

Jeff

logged in the directory services event log(event id 1085) that my DC can't 
contact this dc for replication. This guid is not present in the _msdc zone on 
the root dc, so i'm wondering where the hell it is in AD and why my dc is still

Right now, i just want to know the name of the dc and which domain its in.

[ActiveDir] 2003 SP1 on VMware ESX - reboot issue

2005-04-07 Thread freddy_hartono
Heya all!

Been having this annoying problem since the start of SP1 RC, basically
when I reboot the vmware guest domain controller (SP1) it goes to reboot
properly, then while starting up win2003 - it shutsdown instead.

Host is ESX Server 2.1.0 build 7728 (yeah its rather old)

VM events: Vmware ESX Server internal monitor error - Not implemented at
2182 (7728)

I have 5 of my guest test DC and so far I can confirm all are having
this problem. Anyone else has anything like this happening? Before SP1
all goes well..

Perhaps this should be a selling point of Virtual Server? :-)

Thank you and have a splendid day!

Any luck with userenv.log or a manual gpupdate /force.

Check out gpmc events (gpresult for that computer) to check if GPO is
actually applying.

Theres a KB on gigabit cards and GPO, not sure if this is the same
events you are getting

Are you sure that he is not just using Macintosh file service ( NT has had this

Hi Brian,

What version of Active Directory are you using? Did he have to turn off SMB 
signing and enable lanmanger ?

This won't help you from a how to standpoint, but I can tell you for a fact 
that my mac guy has our 10.3 X boxes on the domain. Took him a while to figure 
it all out, but it does work...

Hi Matt,

I also have a MAC running MAC OS 10.3.8 and have also tried adding my Mac to a 
2003 Active Directory domain to no avail. I just can't get it to bind as a 
member workstation. However  I have used ADMITMAC by Thursby software it works 
like a charm and it supports NTLMv2, SMB signing and Kerberos based tickets.

The URL for Thursby is: http://www.thursby.com/ and 
http://www.thursby.com/products/admitmac-vs-panther.html

With that said let me give you a URL's that you may also want to try: 
http://www.macwindows.com/ , if you figure out away to get it to work without 
Admit Mac please let me know as I am very interested.

I hope this helps!

Sincerely,

When adding Mac's to Active Directory using the Mac AD Directory 
Services Plug-in I can do it just fine using my Domain Admin account.  But when 
I try to add the machine using an account in the group with privileges to add 
to the domain I get an error saying Insufficient Privileges.

   

Anybody seen this or know of a privilege I need to set? All of my lab 
managers on campus have are in the group that can add computers to the domain 
and it works fine for the PC's.

   

Thanks,

RE: [ActiveDir] GUID resolution

2005-04-07 Thread David Cliffe
Yikes...I completely botched that question because I left out a big
chunk (that's what happens when you're about to walk out the door -
sorry!)  Let's try again:

 Seems you can also use that syntax GUID= as the argument to -b
in ADFIND, which makes sense, and is nice to know, espcially because I
couldn't figure out how to get DSQUERY to do the same.

 How come you can't query for the objectGUID as a filter (e.g. --
objectGUID=x--xxx ) - is this because that attribute's syntax
is an octet string?  I'm just curious...not knowing too much about the
way these things are stored!

I think the server-side intelligence bit would have answered my next
question anyway.  Thanks.

RE: [ActiveDir] GUID resolution

2005-04-07 Thread joseph.e.kaplan
You are missing the closing .

Regarding the question on GUID binding syntax, 2K supports both octet
string and COM GUID style with dashes.  Just don't get them mixed up.
The octet string is NOT the same as the COM GUID with no dashes.  

bcd3e267-50ff-4780-afd6-d1bb3785ada5
and
67E2D3BCFF508047AFD6D1BB3785ADA5
are equivalent.  Note the change of byte order on the first DWORD and
the first 2 WORDs.

Also, you can search by GUID and use them in LDIF files (generally for
creating schema with fixed schemaIDGUID):

(objectGUID=\67\E2\D3\BC\FF\50\80\47\AF\D6\D1\BB\37\85\AD\A5)
and
Z+LTvP9QgEev1tG7N4WtpQ==
For the Base64 that LDIF requires.

With SID binding, 2003 supports SDDL format and octet string, but 2K
supports octet string only.

HTH,

Joe K.
