RE: [ActiveDir] Windows 2003 R2 Issue

2006-08-16 Thread Manjeet Singh








We need to sync the
machine password for authentication purpose because the DR machine is not a
part of production AD domain. We have to sync the password so that Kerberos
authentication work properly (Kerberos is not working when the password do not
match). So whenever there is a password changes on Production exchange we sync
it immediately.

 

We do not sync the
machine SID.

I do not have a solution for your issues.
I am just curious. Why do you NEED the password? Why is it important for you to
set the same password on your DR box?





 





So, the real exchange server dies, you bring in your DR box
and have it impersonate the real one? Is this why? Is this to eliminate the
need to have to manually join your
box to the domain? Do you also clone the machine SID?





 





Again, just curious.

RE: [ActiveDir] Installing DNS in Child Domain

2005-04-19 Thread Manjeet Singh
Hi,

Yes, your summary is absolutely correct. No I did not create any
structure manually; all were created automatically during first DC
promotion.

Now when I see the A host record under child.test.com, there is only one
record 'same as parent'.

Thanks,
Manjeet

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Installing DNS in Child Domain

 
I'm working on the premise that at present all DCs and members resolve
against a single DNS server running on the DC in the forest root that
was
created during the promotion of the very first DC.  You've since
promoted a
new DC and created a child domain named child.test.com.  This DC also
resolves against the DNS server running on the DC in the root domain.  

Is that summary accurate?
Have you altered the default configuration created by DCpromo in anyway
or
did you create the current DNS structure manually?
Does the A record for the child DC exist, this is a known bug that would
cause anything we do from this point (excluding the use of BIND zone
files)
to fail -
- expand the zone on the root DNS server
- locate the entry 'child.test'com'
- two A (host) records should exist, one named after the DC
itself
the other, 'same as parent'

Once we have this information, the steps to distribute your DNS
namespace
become relatively simple.

Hi,

I am using windows 2003 standard edition.

This might be the requirement when you have distributed domain model.
Say Root and child domain are in separate remote location. So reduce the
traffic I need to have separate DNS on my child domain controller.

So do I configure DNS on preinstall Child domain controller ?

Yes, you can start the services remotely.

1. Login on server or any other XP machine with administrator
2. My computer > right click > manage
3. Right click computer management in manage windows and point to
connect to another computer.
4. Give the destination computer XP machine name on which u want to
start the services.
4. Now move to services and u can start/stop or disable any service.

Make sure the domain does not have any

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Service\USBSTOR





and look for the Star key if it has a 4,
then USB is disabled, it should have a 3.

Hi Manjeet

You are looking to remove conditional forwarders correct?  W2K3 DNS treats
conditional forwarders as zones in their own right.

dnscmd /zonedelete xyz.com will remove the conditional forwarder outright
(it will prompt - I believe if you use the /f it does not ask if you are
sure)

dnscmd /zoneadd xyz.com /forwarder 192.168.1.1   will set a conditional
forwarder for the zone xyz.com.

Hi Neil,

Thanks for the reply. But the dnscmd /resetforwarders only remove the IP
entries of default DNS domain (All other DNS domains) and I want to remove
another domain entries.

Suppose to make a trust with external domain, I have created a forwarder
from âabc.comâ to âxyz.comâ.

Now I want to remove the forwarder entry of xyz.com domain using command
line.


Thanks,
Manjeet

[ActiveDir] IP Relay Restrictions Attribute format

2005-03-24 Thread Manjeet Singh








Hi,

 

Exchange SMTP Servers store IP Relay Restrictions in Active
Directory Attribute called “msExchSmtpRelayIpList” which is binary
string. If anyone has inside knowledge of format of data stored in this
attribute, the help is highly appreciated. This attribute need to set for the
setting IP Relay settings on the SMTP Servers for testing

 

There is a COM Object called ExpIPSec from MS to do so, but
the interface provide by this object is very restrictive and not usable for
sync’ing the value

 

 

This attribute can have following
information encoded in binary string:


 IP
 Address 
 IP
 Address with Subnet mask 
 Domain
 names. 


 

 

Any pointers on that?
