    - Cannot login to domain controller The problem: "Windows cannot connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found. Please try again later. If this message continues to appear, contact your system administrator for assistance." For the most part everything is working fine. Occasionally Iâ??ll get the above message and I can fix it by leaving the domain and joining it again. Sometimes the problem will come back in a few days, sometimes weeks later. On other workstations after correcting it once the problem never returns. I donâ??t see any errors generated in the workstation or domain controller event logs. The workstation has the correct DNS for the domain controller. It can ping the DNS controller. It can leave and join the domain with no problems at all. The problem seems to happen mostly to laptop users that take their PC away from the domain for a few days, but itâ??s not isolated to these users. It has happened to desktop users too. The server is running Windows Server 2003 R2. Itâ??s connected to another domain controller via a VPN using Logmein Hamachi. I have another location with the same configuration with but it does not experience the same problems. Any ideas on what can be causing the problem? Tag: Move users between DL's? Tag: 134228

    - Netlogon Error Causes RDC to Fail Until After Local Logon? Hi, A few months ago I changed the network connection for one of my DCs from its 100 MB NIC to its gigabit NIC. (I was concerned about the slower NIC's connector having been possibly damaged.) Since then, any time I reboot this server remotely (security patch application) I am unable to log back on to it remotely until AFTER I have gone to the server and logged on locally. All other functionality on the server and the domain appears to be fine. I find a single instanced of Event ID 3096 in the System log after each boot. I have done some research and learned that if the Netlogon service starts before the NIC is bound (And this appears to be common with gigabit NICs.) and / or before DNS has started on the server, then this error is likely to occur. My understanding is that this error is of no real consequence under these circumstances and can be ignored safely. Otherwise, I can configure the system to delay the starting of Netlogon, or I can set the DC to use one of the other DCs as a secondary DNS server (instead of only having it point at itself), or switch back to the 100 MB NIC. Does anyone (besides me) think that my inability to log on via RDP is related to this issue? Because, if it is, then I'll be more likely to take steps to correct the issue. The server is in a very inconvenient location for me to get to, and I'd be happier not having to make the trek to it after each reboot. I'd like to make my effort on this count, because I can only reboot that server once per month (following application of security updates). And my reboot for this month is already used up.

    - How to schedule tasks run at specified time via group policy? Dear Master, I have one query about using Group Policy to implement the following situation: Windows 2003 Active Directory Environement. I'd like all the clients (windows XP +SP2, windows 2000) to run a bat script at 12:00 p.m. every Tuesday, this bat file is to cleanup temporary files. Moreover, if it is also possible, I'd like all the client run the MRT (Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool) tool at 12:00 every Wednesday. Pls be mentioned as I've checked this tool need administrative right on your client. Is that possible to be implemented by Group Policy or other scripts? Thanks in advance!

    - stop replication between 2 DC's Hi Friends, I've been using 2 domain controllers xyz.com and abc.com. abc.com was migrated from xyz.com as I needed to have more space and hardware resource. Unfortunately one of my coworker formatted source domain xyz.com rather to properly depromote it; i've been getting file replication error as the source DC no longer exists. I tried to stop replication between xyz and abc DC's, tried deleting the xyz DC from sites and services MMC. I am getting the error message dsa object cannot be deleted.

    - ntdsutil not working for me. I'm trying to remove two DCs from a 2K3 domain that's no longer in use. I've already migrated the primary DC to our new domain (and all the users), but now I'm attempting to promote these other two DCs into the new domain. I tried running dcpromo on both of the servers but both are "not willing to" be demoted. So I moved on to this Technote: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/216498 and I'm still coming up empty. I get as far as selecting the old domain and old site and when I list servers, I get Found (1) Servers, 0 - (null).I try to select the (null) server and it fails. At this point, I think the only thing I can do is start from scratch and rebuild both of the old DCs, but one of them is my WSUS server and I'd prefer to not have to rebuild that. Anyone have any other ideas. When I look at Sites and Services, both DCs (DC02 & DC03) are linked to each other in the NTDS settings, but DC03 still has a link to DC01, which has since been migrated to the new domain.

    - Connect to a domain occasionally; don't want the policies sent to me I work at a remote location from our home office. I have my own two computers here in my office, both running Windows XP Pro. I sometimes log in to the company's network using a VPN, which I *think* logs me in to their domain. (Although when I log on to my computer, I ask to log in to my local computer, not to any domain. I connect to the VPN later.) I don't want or need the corporate security policies applied to my computer here. They have some things like a big logon "scare" dialog box (which is so full of words that it overflows the dialog box, and of course there are no scroll bars on this box, so the message is partly useless anyway). Today, I tried to encrypt one of my local folders, and I can't, because somewhere in the vastness of the corporate behemoth, there is an expired certificate that was (or could be) used as a recovery agent. So I get the error message that the "recovery policy configured for this system [which system?] contains invalid recovery certificate". I tried to tell my own local Encrypting File System policy that I don't want to use a recovery agent, but I still can't encrypt anything. Question: Even though I connect occasionally to this corporate domain using a VPN, can I avoid their AD policies? I am my own administrator, and I want to log in to my own two-computer peer-to-peer network, or to no domain at all. Even when I am using the VPN Thanks. David Walker Tag: Move users between DL's?

    - user data to syncv between two forests Hello, we are currently re-design our demolab and want to get a flexible setup, where a schema update for one product is not affecting any other. Therefor we setup a main forest containing two DCs in one Domain. This domain contains all user accounts. For each product we now want to setup a dedicated Forest with one domain, which is linked to the primimary forest by a two-way-trust (right now). so far we are able to use the user credentials from the primary forest to log on at the product forest... The key issue we now faced is that in case we have to run a schema update to provide additional features to the users, we of course stuck in the middle of nowhere as the user data is not in the product forest. also ldap queries do not get any proper user information as long as we keep all seperated. Do you know any smart way how we can get the user data being synct in the product forest? so that we are able to configure additional features as well as being able to locate them in a ldap query we only point to the directory of the product forest? Thanks a lot for any help on this. Tag: Move users between DL's? Tag: 134115

    - vista folder redirection error My Setup: Windows Server 2003R2 File Server Active Directory Domain I have a policy set up to redirect the user's my documents to their 'home folder' On the user's account properties their home folder is set to 'connect u to' \\usd\homedirs\staff\hs\%username%' for example. So I have my user s home folder pointing to the home folders share via dfs. The folder was created by AD This works perfect with windows xp my users documents are redirected no problem. In windows vista this is not the case. The documents are not being redirected, in sync center there is an error staff (\\usd\homedirs) - Access is denied. Why would this be happening?

In each site there is a DC (which is a GC) for each domain in each site. I've got Exchange (1 server only). A few days ago i removed some older hardware DCs by demoting them. I noticed one was set as the bridgehead server for IP and SMTP i think. I thought these might populate themselves back or something but nothing has appeared? Do i need to set these manually?

    - Active Directory upgrade from W2000 to W2003 I am currently running all my DC with W2000. I want to replace them by new servers running W2003 and therefore need to upgrade my AD to W2003. According to a book and articles I read until now, it seems I have 2 solutions to upgrade my AD: 1) In place upgrade : upgrade my current DC which holds FSMO roles and is currently running W2000 to W2003, but this is not the best for me as I want to replace my old servers 2) Clean and Pristine migration : create a new domain on a new W2003 server and migrate my resources : a lot of work I was wondering is the following procedure wouldn't upgrade my AD to W2003 too: Introduce a new W2003 member server in the domain, run W2003 forest prep and domain prep, promote the new W2003 server as DC, move the FSMO roles to this new server. Will the result be different from in place upgrade? Thank you for your help Tag: Move users between DL's? Tag: 134075

    - How to restore a GC from backup using VERITAS? We would like to restore an existing Global Catalog backed up using VERITAS NetBackup. The situation: We have a single domain Windows 2000 forest with multiple DCs and GCs, all running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise. Service pack levels vary between SP1 and SP2. Our PDC Emulator experienced a failed upgrade to Windows Server 2003 SP2 from SP1 and the rollback of SP2 was not completely successful either. The server is still running, but it has some problems. We want to restore it using a backup taken before the attempted upgrade. The backup is about 30 days old at this point. The backup software is VERITAS NetBackup 5.1MP4 and the backup is a full backup including System State. The server in question is also a DNS server that points to itself for name resolution. Although I'd like to simply promote a new DC and remove the old one from the domain, this is not the preferred option because the old GC has several Secure LDAP clients that require the use of a specific certificate that is installed on it. As a last resort, we will build a replacement GC, issue a new cert and reconfigure the various dependent applications to use the new cert. We have an identical server available to perform the restore on. I have already transferred the FSMO roles the GC held to other DCs and enabled the GC function on another DC in the same site. Would the restore process be as follows? Load Windows Server 2003 SP1 on replacement server. Do not join domain, give it a temporary name. Load VERITAS NetBackup client on replacement. Perform a full system and System State restore of original GC using VERITAS Client on replacement. Remove replacement from network. Restart replacement. Replacement comes up with identity of original GC. Shut replacement down again. Shut down original GC. Bring replacement GC back up on production network. Other DCs and GCs replicate AD updates to replacement GC? When we tried this earlier, the System Event log showed Event ID 5706 SYSVOL errors, a 16651 FSMO error from SAM, 40960 errors from LSASRV, and a string of dynamic DNS registration errors. It looks like DNS isn't starting because it's AD-integrated and AD isn't available. Then DNS registration and lookups fail. AD has problems updating because DNS isn't working and DNS won't start working because AD isn't getting updated. The next time we try swapping the replacement GC, we'll have it pointed to a different DNS server and see if this sorts itself out, but I'd like to know if I'm missing anything else. Thank you.

    - Cross Domain Authentication I am currently trying to fix an issue with my companies AD structure. I have had this issue but I cannot find my answer on the internet yet so I will post here with hope that the community can help me out. Currently I have AD structure similar to the drawing below. <rootdomain.int> | | <domain.int> rootdomain.int has only a few DC's and 4 real users, just a empty root domain domain.int is where all the servers, groups, users and etc are. When on a member server from the "domain.int" domain I cannot access the rootdomain.int domain. I get access denied no matter what I do. I know the user accounts I am using (from both domains) have access as I can login to the DC's at the rootdomain.int with them. Plus they are Domain Administrators or something comparable. Anyone have any ideas? I seem to remember something about authentication and a GPO but I cannot put my finger on it yet. Peter Tag: Move users between DL's? Tag: 134068

    - Time not defaulting to NT5DS after DCPROMO We are in the process of doing a hardware refresh on all of our remote domain controllers.

    - Folder Redirection So, I set up the Default Domain Policy under Group Policy Management in Server Manager in Windows Server 2008 for Folder Redirection. The settings I chose were Basic (Redirect everyone's folder to the same location), and under Target Folder Location, "Create a folder for each user under the root path" was chosen. The Root Path is set as \ \SageRealtyDC.SageRealty.local\SageRealtyUsers. I set up SageRealtyUsers as a Share and gave Everyone Full Control. From most of what I read on the subject of Folder Redirection, this should create a folder in the SageRealtyUsers folder when the user logs in using this new policy for the first time, and copy the My Documents folder there. That is not happening. Am I assuming wrong? Do I need to manually create the user folders myself? Tag: Move users between DL's? Tag: 134044

    - Slow Log off scripts when laptop is off the domain network Hi all, We have log off scripts set on one of our GPOs. When laptops are taking off the network, they take ~10-20 minutes to shutdown as they get "stuck" at the "running log off scripts". My guess is that it keeps looking for our DCs but since the laptop is not on the network, it doesn't find them an eventually times out. Is there a way to resolve this either by changing a setting that will bypass the log off scrips when not on the network or by reducing the timeout value? Thanks Tag: Move users between DL's?

    - Infrastructure role - how intensive? Hi there, We've got our domain. It's got 3 sites (as set up in sites and services). We have 4 domain controllers as follows: 1. Site A - DC_A 2. Site B - DC_B 3. Site C - DC_C and DC_D (A virtual server) Now - A, B and C are GCs because they are each in their own site. C holds the majority of the roles. I know the infrastrcuture role should not be held on a GC so i've got it on D. Is this correct? How intensive is this role? I'd rather not stress a virtual machine you see -rather it just be there as the backup. Thanks, Tag: Move users between DL's? Tag: 134017
