    - Active Directory interoperability with other systems. Hi, I am not too much familiar with Active Directory capabilities, my question is: 1. Is it possible to configure Active Directory in a trigger like mode where if a new user is created AD would add this info into a csv file or SQL Server table, or if a user was deleted from AD it would also export this info somehow. We would like to use this info in other systems and to build that kind of automation. 2.If this is not possible are there any built-in tools in AD that could be scheduled to run automatically to export certain fields for all the users in AD into a csv file or Sql Server Table Please let me know if my questions are not clear, essentially I am looking for automated solution where other systems would be synchronized with AD info when users are added/deleted from AD, so other systems would be aware of that. Thank you, Vadim Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128276

    - Moving File Server Into New Domain Good Afternoon Everyone, Iâ??m going through a domain migration and Iâ??ve done users, workstations, Exchange, and now its time for the file servers. I have a trust between Domain OLD and Domain NEW. For the file servers Iâ??ve replicated user permissions on each folder so that any folder with an entry for dOLD\user now also has an entry for dNEW\user. This has worked great but since my goal is to retire Domain OLD I want to move the file sever into the new domain. My question is this: If I move the file server from Domain OLD to Domain NEW will my permission erase? TIA, Ray Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128268

    - Quesiton on Group Policy Loopback Processing Hi all, I am new to GPOs and I have a problem with Group Policy Loopback Processing. I am dealing with two OUs, one called LAB101 (which only has computer accounts in it) and one called STAFF (which houses all of my users). For the STAFF OU I added a GPO called "STAFF GPO" but I have not configured anything in it. For the LAB101 OU I added a GPO called "LAB101 GPO". In the LAB101 GPO I enabled Group Policy Loopback Processing (mode = replace). I did this because I want a User logon script to run whenever a user logs into the machine. So, I also added a logon script in the user configuration of the LAB101 GPO. However, when I log into a LAB101 machine, the script never runs. Am I missing a step? Any help is appreciated, thanks.

    - Accounts randomly loosing membership to a group in DL's security Hi, We have a Windows 2003 shop. We have two servers where one user looses his membership to a Security Group that we have setup under DLs Security. Why is this happening? The PC's in question are different operating systems (2000 and Vista) so I highly doubt that that has anything to do with it. Both servers are 2003 Standard R2. Thoughts?

    - Dfs problem Hi all, I have 2 domain controllers in my network (hq.company.srh, fsv.company.srh) . Operations master role (RID,PDC,Infrastructure) belongs to only one domain controller-hq.company.srh. I am creating a DFS root on hq.company.srh something like company. I can log in to the domain using my domain account from a computer which is not a domain computer without problems but when I try to enter the directory of DFS I get an error saying "Configuration information cannot be read from the domain controller either because the machine is unavailable or access has been denied" Normally if I wrote \\company.srh to open up the dfs root. Instead of hq.company.srh comes up fsv.company.srh. I have tried to create dfs root on fsv.company.srh. I can log on from the client computer with no problems What do you think the problem is?

    - DHCP dynamically updating internal DNS servers instead of authoritative? Hi there. Say you have a domain: domain.com which is out there on the Internet doing its thing, et cetera but you also use that domain internally for your active directory (which is probably not ideal). Domain.com is hosted on your cluster of authoritative nameservers and has records related to your online presence such as MX records, A records for your website and other public services, et cetera. Lets say that you're running DHCP/DNS in your active directory and you would like new registrations to only be added to the 'local' version of domain.com and not the Internet version of domain.com, I realize that the DHCP server (and perhaps windows in general) sends dynamic updates to the authoritative nameservers, but I would rather not for reasons of security through obscurity publish our internal DNS to the Internet. I realize the right way to do this would've probably been to use a subdomain such as internal.domain.com or corp.domain.com but this was all established 10 years ago. So the question is, is it possible to have the DHCP server send updates to the local DNS servers rather than the actual authoritative DNS servers? thanks, Andy Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128247

    - GPO Queston Hi all, I have a batch script that I need to run that sets the default printer, it contains the following line: rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /y /n "115 Lab 4200" My thinking is that I would make an OU for the Room 115 lab and put all of the machines in that lab in the OU. I then made a GPO for that OU and added the script to User Configuration -> logon Scripts, hoping it would execute this script along with the logon script set in the properties of the users. However, it does not. What am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated, thanks. Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128246

    - Connectivity problems between child member-server and root domain controllers Hi Support I have a forest with one root domain (root.local) and a child domain (child.root.local) in a single AD forest. The root domain and the child domain are seperated by a ISA server 2006 firewall. I have open for communikation between all of the domains controller in the root and the child domain. All of the domain controllere in both domains are Global Catalog servere. Everything is working fine, replication, DNS, GC without any errors. The root domain controllers hosts the root DNS zone (root.local) The child domain controllers hosts the child DNS zone (child.root.local) I have forwarders on the child domain controllers DNS works fine Replication Works fine My issue is: When I am on a member server i the child domain and want to assign NTFS permissions on a folder, the dialog boxes hangs for a long period of time. (Could be any member server in the child domain) I have looket at the ISA server logs and can see that this child member sever tries to access the root domain controllere while it hangs. I first to connect to the rootdcs using "PING", "Microsoft CIFS" and last "Session" If i open PING and CIFS in the firewall between the child member server and the root domain controllers it works fine, but i dont not want that communikation to occur. The communication must be so that the child member-servers only communicate with the child domain controllers. I have specific sites defined for the ROOT domain and the CHILD domain Hope you have som good idears so we can this fixed Best regards Jesper vedholm Systemtech A/S Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128241

    - AD system state backup on Windows 2008, disk size increasing Hello everyone, I've been working lately with Windows Server 2008 RTM version, and I promoted one server (virtual machine) as a DC. After having some obstacles configuring the AD system state backup I finally completed and I had a schedule backup running periodically. That backup storage is made on a seconday disk on the DC, but I found out that the system state backup catalog it's getting real big in a few weeks, meaning that the VM disk is increasing as well (over 25gb right now). Is there any way that I can have more control about that? Like accessing the system state catalog and removing old system state backups? Basically I don't want to get to the point where I have virtual disks over 200gb :) Thanks! -- augusto alvarez | it pro | southworks http://staff.southworks.net/aalvarez Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128236

    - GPO question after using rendom.exe I=92m renaming a domain, which is managed by two W2K3 R2 domain controllers, with the rendom utility. In Microsoft=92s step by step guide to renaming a domain, it says to enter this command: gpfixup /olddns:oas.local /newdns:oas-backup.local /oldnb:oas / newnb:oas-backup 2>&1 >gpfixup.log This command fails and the resulting popup window has this error message: =93The procedure entry point CryptUnprotectMemory could not be located in the dynamic link library CRYPT32.dll=94 Also, this is probably related but when I try to run gpmc.msc, I experience the following trouble: There is a problem when clicking on either the domain controller policy or the domain policy. In fact, a window is displayed asking to change the current domain controller. On this form there is a combobox, which is greyed out, and it says, =93look in this domain=94. And the domain reflected in the un-editable control is =93oas.local=94 =96 which is the old domain!!! Any attempts to select any of the four radio buttons (the domain control which is the PDC emulator, any domain controller, and available domain controller running Windows 2003, or specifying a domain controller) fails. Just about everything worked using rendom =96 except for being able to access the GPO for the domain and the domain controllers.

    - Problem with domain name I struggled with this one and finally figured it out but I want to understand what is going on with this network. Single DC on the network. When I looked at all of the domain members under computer properties, the domain name only reads "local". I also looked under the active directory on the server and the computer properties of the server and it was listed as "local". I assumed that someone prior to me had set this up as a single level DNS domain name. So I tried to add a member with "local" as the domain name and it continued to fail. So eventually I noticed that if I browsed the network on a workstation that was already part of the domain the domain name was actually "DOMAIN". So I tried to add the member with this name and it worked. But it still displays as simply "local" when viewed under computer properties, under active directory on the DC, etc. Why is the FQDN not showing. I expect it to be displayed as "DOMAIN.local"?? Is there a group policy setting that hides this part of the domain name. All is working fine I just wanted to understand why this is happening? Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128220

    - clear current members of a distrib grp and add new members from a 2003 AD, Native forest and Domain. XP SP2 clients. I need to script up a way of clearing all current members for an AD Distribution Group and then adding back in all the members from a .txt or .csv file. The script needs to be able to be run by users that have permissions to the AD group object. Any ideas? Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128166

    - question about domain rename Hello, I just finished reading the Step-by-Step Guide to Implementing Domain Rename publication from Microsoft. Wouldn't it be easier to just remove the hosts from the domain, demote the domain controllers, rename the DCs, and re-promote them? Thanks! Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128157

    - Delegated account control is getting access denied Hi everyone, I'll skip over some of the things I have tried. But basically the situation is this: I create a barnd new account and delegate these controls for the account specifically:- allow reset account allow read pwdLastSet allow write pwdLastSet Now that user can select and tick the box for 'user must change password at next logon' for any user in the container that delegation has been set up for. However once this has been selected and applied that user cannot remove the tick form the tick box - same object. You get an error - The following Active Directory error occurred: Access is denied But there are no explicit denies for this user and the delegation that has been set up. Plus if there was surely you would not be able to tick the option in the first place. Anyone have experience with this sort of issue? Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128154

    - Kerberos NTLM Is there a reason that IE(IE7) would send NTLM instead of KERBEROS after setting IE as follows? Is thee something else i have to lok for? 1. put the requesting site in IE to local-network 2. in the IE extended security option enable Integrated Windows Authentication To configure Intranet Authentication: 1. Click the Security tab, click Local intranet, and then click Custom Level. 2. In the Security Settings dialog box, scroll down to the User Authentication section of the list. 3. Select Automatic logon only in Intranet zone. This setting prevents users from having to re-enter logon credentials; a key piece to this solution. 4. Click OK to close the Security Settings dialog box. In addition to the previous settings, one additional setting is required if you are running Internet Explorer 6.0. 1. In Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click Internet Options. 2. Click the Advanced tab. 3. Scroll down to the Security section. 4. Make sure that Enable Integrated Windows Authentication (requires restart) is checked, and then click OK. 5. If this box was not checked, restart the browser. Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128145

    - Child domain and DNS Hello list. In a Windows 2003 R2 forest I've added with dcpromo a child domain of my root domain. On the Root's DNS, the child domain appears as a subdomain. I'd like it to appear as a deleagate zone of the child domain pointed to the child DC's DNS server. my idea is 1. create the zone on the child DC's DNS by manually copying all entries from the root's DNS 2. delete the subdomain on the root DNS 3. create a delegated zone in the root domain for the child zone. Is it a good solution? Is there any better solution with a 2003 (native mode) forest? thank you. Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128141

    - Restricting FTP access via windows Explorer You guys may have some trick to do this. I use Group policy to restrict almost everything. I would like to restrict users to stop using FTP access from their machine. I used GPO to restrict ftp, http, in connection setting. That restrict the user from internet explorer or other browser. However, user can still access using windows explorer and type in address bar like ftp://servername .com. and this will ask username and password and can easily access. Is ftp client also built in windows explorer ? If I want to restrict ftp for those particular users in OU how do i do this ? Thanks AT Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128131

    - AD Sync Problem Hi, I have a situation. I just got customer who had deployed 2 x 2K3 R2 AD and had it sync with each other at the main office. They also deployed exchange 2007 at the main office. However, they split the network between 2 sites and have moved 1 of the AD to a site office, but these 2 AD have not been connected for the last 3 months. To access the domain and exchange, they create the same new user account on the 2 AD server and exhange 2007. So site office users login in to the site office AD, but access exchange via the main office AD and exhange. Question: If they connect the network together now and tried to sync the 2 AD, will the new accounts created on both sites conflict with each other or will they just sync with each other and the users on both sides would continue to work as per normal? Thanks. Gilbert Tag: Domain DC Time Tag: 128123

    - NTDS Automatic Entries We are just emerging from resolving issues with lingering objects and now have A/D replicating without errors in replmon. When I look at Sites and Services under one of my domain controllers, the NTDS Settings show a few <automatically generated> connections and about six others that show the server name in both the Name and From Server columns. I am thinking these are there because we manually moved these connections during the process of troubleshooting our replication issues (and we had plenty). My question is, can I delete these non-automatic entries and have A/D reconnect everything using the automatically generated type? We have had solid, reliable replication for about 5 days now and I am confident that all DCs are communicating properly across my WAN. Thanks in advance for any thoughts or comments!

I thought that all computers on a Domaain were supposed to sync up with
their DC as their primary NTP server. Why is it that when i run net time
/querysntp i get this then: The current SNTP value is: time.windows.com ;
shouldnt it be the ip or hostname of my DC?

Hello Ovidio B.,

Is the machine where you run the command the PDCEmulator? If not run
net time \\pdcemulatorname /querysntp then you will see which time source
is used in the domain. Also if you have configured the PDCEmulator for an
external time source you can see with that command. When you run w32tm /resync
/rediscover you can see in the event viewer system log the event id 37 which
will also contain the time server name from your domain.

Best regards

Ovidio,
the output of net time /querysntp command simply provides the value of the
local NtpServer (REG_SZ) registry entry (under
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters). As long as the
Type entry is set to NT5DS (which you can also verify by running w32tm
/dumpreg /subkey:parameters), the target computer is using domain-based
mechanism for time sync...
