Hi,
Lately we having an issue with adding a new PC to our domain. We can remove and add an existing machine to the domain but if machine is new one get even 4097 error code 1332 and error code 1003
Our domain is server 2012 with multiple DC's, the time on app of the DC's are the same and we use NetBIOS name or FQDN both with the same result.
Any suggestion?
Hi Technet,
Is it possible to track who has updated a users first or last name in Active Directory?
It looks like event 4738 cover most user properties, but I've trawelled the internet and cannot find any logs that actually track who has updated these particular properties. Is it possible to track these changes?
Thanks,

I am using a cpp program to search an Active Directory using the IDirectory-Search (ref: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/adsi/searching-with-idirectorysearch).
For computer objects this function is able to fetch all attributes expect 'msFVE-RecoveryPassword' attribute and instead returning '0x80005010' (E_ADS_COLUMN_NOT_SET) on calling GetColumn function. All other attributes including other bitlocker attributes like 'msFVE-RecoveryGuid' are fetched properly.
The password is visible in ADUC properties page of the computer object and also through Bitlocker recovery password viewer. Since the 'msFVE-RecoveryPassword' is not available in security tab -> permission list, I am not able to find if the user credentials used in the program have the read permission on the attribute. But since 'msFVE-RecoveryInformation' has a common delegation, it might not be a permission issue.
Any suggestion or troubleshooting step would be really helpful
Thanks in advance.
Hi all.
I have two Domain Controlles with 2012 R2 (DC 1 and DC2), both RWDC. I have the necessity to create other server with Win 2019 but for this I have to change de technology replication from FRS to DFS.
So, I ran the commands on the existing AD: "dfsrmig /setglobalstate 1", after that "dfsrmig /setglobalstate 2", "dfsrmig /setglobalstate 3".
After that, I ran "dfsrmig /getglobalstate" and the result was "Eliminated" and the result is "completed succesfully".
With the command "dfsrmig /getmigrationstate" the results is that "Migration has not reached a consistent state on all Domain Controllers state information might be stale due to AD latency"
All the users lost resource connectivity that needs AD authentication. I tried repeat the process but it's not possible. It's give me a message "Invalid state change requested"
I's very worried about this. Can anyone help me please? What can I do for work back?
Thank you.
Just created a new, off-line root CA, and signed the SubCA request generated. All are on the same WS2016 Datacenter
Now I attempt to install this certificate and I receive an error about Invalid Data. The error is instructing me to re-run the wizard which would require I uninstall the role and start over. Then perform another root key ceremony to sign the SubCA request. The error also indicates that there was a subsequent .req file created, when there wasn't.
What are is the real cause of this error? Is there debug logging I can enable to learn more? I really do not know if this is a problem accessing the private key or not.
Hello Team,
If we create password setting container with password length and added AD group which contains service account , if some service accounts(already exist in the group) which does not meet password length which is configures in container. will it impact any
thing?
Hi everyone!
We are running W2K8 DCs and the following command...
%SystemRoot%\System32\dsquery.exe user "DC=mydomain,DC=local" -inactive 8 -s localhost -limit 1000
... but it seens DSQUERY.EXE counts users who connect to work using VPN too. It is a false positive. Is it the expect behavior? In other words, it only updates the last logon attribute if user connects interactively?

Hi,
What is the difference between Role-based delegation vs Object-type delegation? Can somebody give me some examples of both types? How to delegate such thing likeDC cloning? Normally you add a member to Cloneable Domain Controllers group.
I need to understand this topic. Thank you!

Hi,
We seeing event 2213 on our server 2012 DC that has the 5 fsmo roles. we have 5 DC's in our doamin, 2 in the same site and the rest in different site.
The event viewer says run this command:
wmic /namespace:\\root\microsoftdfs path dfsrVolumeConfig where volumeGuid="32D935BE-37DF-11E2-93E7-806E6F6E6963" call ResumeReplication
I did run this command from Powershell as admin and run the above command and get the message:
Unexpected switch at this level
Should I run the command from command prompt? or the above messge has other meaning?
Thanks

Dear Team,
I want to configure Microsoft two factor OTP authentication in Active Director users, advice me and share the documents. suggest the third party (RSA) software, will be support active directory.
My Environment
1. all user connect in Active Directory Service (AD DS)
2. Mail- gmail service
I have a set of read only domain controllers on a segregated network. Sites and Services are set to that subnet. When pinging the domain, the first ping is always to an internal writable DC - which is not accessible by non DC's. I set the host file to ping the RODC which works fine as a sort of fix and modified the LMHost file and registry. I've also made changes to DNSDomainZones and DNSForestZones for the site within DNS to only include the RODC's. I do see tcp/udp (for kpassword and ldap)further up to the root does not include the RODC's.
When using Active Directory Explorer, the first lookup is always the internal DC's and then eventually the RODC's which takes 30 or more seconds. For now the lookup
is set to RODC host name (with the host record) - which works in under 3 seconds. Anyone have any ideas on how to force the domain lookup to always go to the read only DC's? Thank you in advance.
We are running a windows server 2012 r2 AD environment and would like to dynamically map user specific network drives at time of logon to domain desktop sessions. We created a network share on a 2012 R2 server with full share and security permissions for the everyone group just to see if it would work however whenever we use the following command on domain authenticated user session
net use H: \\servername\home\%username% OR net use H: \\servername\home\%LogonUser%
we receive the following error:
System error 55 has occurred. The specific network resource or device is no longer available.
In troubleshooting we tried ECHO %username% at a command prompt and receive the correct username. We were able to use the same UNC path above in the builtin "Connect" feature under the Profile tab in AD to get the drive to map correctly. The share is not hidden.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I need to provide to a team of junior system administrators some pointers to up-to-date documentation about basic Active Directory management procedures on Windows server 2019 or Windows server 2016 servers, including creating users and groups, creating and applying Group Policies, assigning user rights, protecting files and directories and so on.
Up to now I was able to locate only outdated pages and some third party pages.
Where can I locate up-to-date and Comprehensive Microsoft documentation on the matter?
Regards
marius
