RE: [ActiveDir] oracle directory service integration with windows 2000 active directory

2004-12-20 Thread Grillenmeier, Guido
sounds like you're trying to syncronize oracle data with AD and you want
to perform an LDAP query against AD to retrieve the last changes that
took place - is this about right?

If so, you could use the DirSync contol (but this needs to have an
active process running on a DC) or you could use the USN attributes in
AD to restrict the export to things that have changed since the last
syncronization - e.g. using an LDAP filter with
&(usnCREATED>=)(usnCHANGED>=).

RE: [ActiveDir] oracle directory service integration with windows 2000 active directory

2004-12-20 Thread Mulnick, Al
Still not entirely clear, but let me reword and see if I understand
correctly.

The oracle folks want to know if Active Directory was used in some way
during a transaction on their system.  They want to know based on a certain
time.

Is that right?

If so, how is Oracle integrated in your environment?  If just the database,
then it was likely using identification and authentication services of
Active Directory.  That being the case, you'd want to be auditing for the
events in your security logs on the domain controllers.  

If oracle is trying to make changes to objects in the directory, then
lastchanged would be the way to find out when. To find out whom, you'd have
to revert to the audit logs.

If there is a certain function they are calling that triggers off of
usnchanged, then they should know what they're looking for already which is
likely what's confusing me.  Do they just want to see if a particular
attribute on the object has changed and want to look for it by USNCHANGED
value?  

What component of Oracle are they using?
