    - Error lsasvr 40690 Hi all, I have been having this error on one of our domain controler (cut and paste of the event at the end of the post). It's repeated every 1:30 to 2 hours and has been going on for 2 weeks. I have made an extensibe search both on microsoft website and google (web) and I couldn't find anything that apply to this error. I have also made a complete diagnostic of the server with dsdiag, netdiag, nltest and nothing comes out, all diagnostics indicate that the server is fonctionning correctly without any error. The IP configuration is correct, the account is not disabled or erase and at this point I can't figure out what is wrong or if I even need to be worriedÂ. One last thing, it as been a while since the server has been rebooted. I plan on doing it this afternoon and see if it makes a difference. Event Type: Warning Event Source: LSASRV Event Category: SPNEGO (Negotiator) Event ID: 40960 Date: 3/25/2008 Time: 1:20:41 PM User: N/A Computer: SHSJDC02 Description: The Security System detected an authentication error for the server ldap/shsjdc02.somewhere.intranet/somewhere.intranet@somewhere.intranet.

    - Adding Win2003 Server R2 to Non-SP Win2003 Server Domain Our sole DC is a W2003 Server without any service packs. The system partition is too small to allow me to SP this machine. I am planning on taking this machine down and replacing drives after I get this new machine up and running. OS on new machine is W2003 Server R2. The AD schema on the existing DC needs to be extended via ADPREP. Questions I have are can the AD Schema be extended regardless of the lack of SP's and does the server require a reboot after running ADPREP? Tag: There must be an easy answer to this one..

    - How to rename domain.com to domain.local? Hi there, I recently posted about was it wrong to use company-name.com as our Forest/Domain and should company-name.local be used. The suggestions were to use .local where possible but as we already have .com I have decided to leave it as everyone said it is OK if not causing problems. I don't actually want to do this or have any plans to but does anyone know how I would go about changing .com to .local and the impacts of doing so including downtime or problems. Thanks.

    - AD DNS Zone question - Dynamic Updates I had someone ask me a question the other day that I wasn't totally sure the answer to. Let's say you have an active directory dns zone, either integrated or primary, and you have dynamic updates turned off. So I realize that no clients will be able to update or create host records in the zone. However, let's say you make domain controller changes, such as bringing up a new DC and making it a GC. Will the SRV records be updated within the zone for the domain controller(s)? Tag: There must be an easy answer to this one.. Tag: 125511

    - Main differences between Enterprise CA and Standalone CA ? Hi, one people in my team has made a project with a standalone CA but we are thinking about installing an Enterprise CA as we are using Active Directory. We don't have any special needs actually but the advantage to have the Enterprise CA is the auto-enrollment so we would like to install it for the project and not anymore the standalone CA. My question is, what differences should we have to know about the installation of an Enterprise CA in place of a Standalone CA ? (or more exactly what default options should I have to change on the Enterprise CA to work as if I was using a Standalone CA?) For example, I am thinking about changing the default value of autoenrollment in the Enterprise CA ( Policy Modules/Properties/Set the certificate request status to pending). But is there anything else ? Thank you -- Pascal Tag: There must be an easy answer to this one.. Tag: 125505

    - Active Directory login seems too fail, shares not corrensponding . Hello people, have abit of a problem, will try to explain below. (I am very new to this so go easy on me). We recently installed a new fiberoptic for WAN communication. In this process we changed our entire network subnet and ip scope. We have a different means of distributing ip-adresses to clients then we had before. Now, everything works fine up to the point when it comes to login in to server from a client. Login scripts, connections to shares - doesn't seem to register upon logon. Running from the server itself it looks fine, no problems there. If one tries to connect to a share from a client the message "networkpath could not be found .. " appears. I can ping the DC, works fine. Run nslookup (dns), works fine and such - but not get the shares to work / run login scripts from clients. Any ideas? I've basically given up on this because I really do not know what to look for or where to start. And it's really not in my job description either. Any help is appreciated.

    - Network Infrastructure Hi Guys, Hope Im in the right group. Im in a stage of fixing my network. This is my current setup. 1. I have an active directory server, which is mydomain.com, wherein also my DNS and DHCP is located. 2. My subnet is 255.255.255.0 This is my idea. 1. Have these servers: (Need suggestions on these) a. AD Server with DNS Server - is this a good practice? b. DHCP Server with ISA Server - is this a good practice? Other concern: I want my network to have access limitations. Here is a scenario. 1. In our network, only managers can use their laptop to access our network and internet. It can be wired or wireless. Unauthorized laptop should or must not access our network. But from the way the network was setup, they can access it through wire. I can filter the wireless using MAC Address filter from the routers. But if they connect through wire and know how to config TCP/IP they can easily access our network. Can this be avoided through ISA? Is there a way to filter MAC Address through Active Directory?

    - Parent - Child Domain Trust Relationship - Cannot modify trust Hello, I am not able to modify my trust relationship between a child and parent domain. AD Domains and Trusts setup a two-way Transitive trust - shortcut relationship. I do not want the parent domain trust the child, I do not want users in the child domain to have access to the parent (one-way trust), but the Remove button is grey out and I cann't add a trust because one already exits. There appears to be no option to modify the settings. Second, I attempted three times to create this child domain using Microsoft Docs, it never worked. It doesn't create the child domain zone file, Even though the DNS test during the Child's dcpromo tested good. http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/e3f241b5-82a0-4c24-a56a-bfc00ce1b5c21033.mspx?mfr=true After the child domain was created, replication failed due to DNS failure. I ended up manually configuring DNS an setup the Child with DNS delegation. I assume this the only way it will work? I don't know if the problems are related to modifing my trust relationship now.

    - Lose Authentication Hey, A small problem I've been having lately is that users who are logged on to the domain seem to lose their authentication randomly. They'll suddenly be asked for their password when viewing their e-mail (exchange setup), they can no longer access network drives, and need to reboot 3 times or so until they can even log back into windows after logging out. We have a very simple setup, 2 AD servers with about 20 client machines. I don't beleive is a replication issue or anything like that, but I'm not sure where to even start checking for this issue. Does anybody have any ideas? The server is running Windows 2k3 and the client machines are running Windows XP SP2 (both have the latest updates/hot fixes).

    - AD Users not getting proper permissions I have three users (that I know about) that don't seem to be getting the proper permissions. I have shared network drives that have the same permissions set, but the users only have access to some of the shared drives. I also have a user in the domain admins group that does not have permissions where domain admins should. My other domain admins permissions work fine. We are using a server 2000/2003 AD.

    - Migrating User Profiles between Servers Hey All, I have an AD 2000 Server that also acts as our DC. We currently have a Terminal Server (also WIn 2000) joined to this domain and all users authenticate into TS using AD. All user profiles reside on the Terminal Server. We're moving to a Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Server for Terminal Services (we'll then remove the 2000 Terminal Server). Since we're still staying with the 2000 AD. Is there a seemless way to move the profiles from TS 2000 to TS 2003? I could even do it manually, but until a user actually logs in once, they don't have a profile directory in the new server ... Thanks Joe Tag: There must be an easy answer to this one.. Tag: 125249

How would i export all avilable attributes (be they populated or not) for a
user object? I can view them by scrolling through an accounts properties in
ADSI Edit, but i'd like to have them in a single list i can view and make
notations on.

Even better would be a link that lists all the attributes along with an
explanation for each one. ..But i'm not greedy, i'll settle for only the
list at this point.

Thanks in advance.

The following article shows you how to export those objects:

For excel, the following script looks promising and easy to extend if
you need some additional attributes:
