web application connecting to DC via ldap

We have a web application in the internet and we want to use our active directory controller on-premise for authentication via ldap when logging in to the application. Can it be done? Or we need a third party software to interface between our web app and active directory since the web app is public and the DC is private?

ADAMSync and two Domains

$

Hello

I've got a working AD LDS instance on Server 2019. I should now sync two different domains, which works if I do this on the cmd.

For each domain I have a special user to sync the data. What I did not master yet, how can I automatize the synchronization, if the two usernames of the two domains are different. It seems that every time I use one of the two /install commands:

ADAMSync /install localhost:50000 c:\windows\ADAM\MS-AdamSyncConf_domainB_v2.xml /passprompt

ADAMSync /install localhost:50000 c:\windows\ADAM\MS-AdamSyncConf_domainA_v2.xml /passprompt

it will overwrite/delete the password of the user configured in the xml file. Is this correct?

All the manuals I've seen, talk about using a Batch file and run it as a scheduled task for synchronization, that would mean that I've to enter a (nearly) domain admin credential into a text file, something I don't really like. Do I miss something in the documentation here?

Thanks for help

Windows Server 2019 failing DCDIAG with Unable to start a DCOM server...

I have two Windows Server 2019 and one Windows Server 2008 R2 server in the AD.  One of the 2019 servers is throwing this error when I run DCDIAG.

        An error event occurred.  EventID: 0x00002710
            Time Generated: 06/08/2020   10:02:09
            Event String: Unable to start a DCOM Server: {9C38ED61-D565-4728-AEEE-C80952F0ECDE}. The error:
         ......................... AQUAPDC3 failed test SystemLog

The event log has:

Unable to start a DCOM Server: {9C38ED61-D565-4728-AEEE-C80952F0ECDE}. The error:
"0"
Happened while starting this command:
C:\Windows\System32\vdsldr.exe -Embedding

Event ID: 10000

The date and time of the event match with the running of DCDIAG....

I have searched for solutions, but many of the posts I find don't really match what I am getting.

The domain appears to be functioning fine, but this error message is concerning.

Any leads most helpful.

GC authentication for un

$

Hi folks,

I have question about GC. If there are AD accounts with the same sAMAccountName (for example johndoe" but in different child domains ( for example, the forest root is company.com and the 2 domains are hr.company.com and it.company.com), what will happen when johndoe is authenticated? Will GC only allow a unique sAMAccountName in forest or successfully find the user in proper domain? 

Thanks in advance.

Why is AD replicating user objetcs, but not some COMPUTER objetcs?

$

I´ts possible for AD, to replicate correctly "user" objetcts, but not "computer objects"?

A HelpDesk user told me thta he´s suspecting a problem at AD replication

So i tried to check using repadmin /showobjmeta to check the version of certain attributes for some users and everything was fine, severals users are replicating with no problem, it looked like a case closed

But i noticed that for COMPUTER objects, it seams to be a problem:

here, the details:

In a particular object, the changes has been made locally on that site, but the change has not been replicated

Object was changed today, on DC3, a simple "description" entry, but nothing it seams to be replicated to other DCs

The weird part, is that other computer objects and some users i checked, are not affected, replicating normally

repadmin /showobjmeta DC3 
1765457                         DC3\BRAMS-SRV0005   1765457 2020-06-08 12:24:50 1037 description

AD FS ESL on update password page

Hello,

I trued to configure ADFS ESL

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-fs/operations/configure-ad-fs-extranet-smart-lockout-protection

but I test it with password update page

I set logs only mode and there is no event like Id=1203,1210. Only this one

Windows 2016

Config:

And of course my test account locked only with AD but not with ESL. So intruder can lock any account in domain with brute force.

How can I protect AD account, with  locking attempts before AD account will be locked?

Thank you!

ADCS Installing CA Certificate

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.

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?

Event Log 4738 Missing From Event Viewer

$

Hey,
I am trying to monitor user account changes using event log 4738.
I am seeing changes to some user account attributes, but not all of them.
In windows own docs it is mentioned that not all changes invoke an event log, which I assume is the reason why the logs are missing.
Is there a way to enable log creation for all user account attributes?
Thanks!

(Relevant Doc - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/auditing/event-4738
"Some changes do not invoke a 4738 event.")

Some users have a value for "LastLogonTimeStamp" even though they have never logged on

$

Hi All,

I am trying to track down some weirdness with some test accounts in our domain.

These accounts were created years ago and have never logged on, yet they have a date in the replicated "Lastlogontimestamp" attribute. This date seems to change regularly and is always showing as being within the last week.

In order to determine the last time an account has logged on, I have a script which checks every Domain Controller on our domain for the "lastlogon" attribute, compares the values from each Domain Controller, and then takes the most recent value as the true last logon time. When I run this script against these test accounts, they show as never having logged in which is what I expect.

However when I issue "get-aduser <user> -Properties LastLogonDate" (Which queries the "lastlogontimestamp" attribute), I get a date within the last week. Even thought these accounts have no value for "lastlogon" on any of our domain controllers, and have a cumulative "logoncount" of zero, they do for some reason have a value in the "lastlogontimestamp" attribute.

This does not make any sense to me and I was wondering if there is something I am not getting about this attribute.

Any insights to this behavior would be appreciated.

Thank you,

John.
