I have forest and child domain controller environment. I have two forest domain controller in one site. For DR and HA, i am adding two additional forest domain controllers in two different sites. OS on forest domain controller is Windows Server 2008. Network connectivity is through and now only dc promo is required.
Any special considerations before adding domain controller with forest wide role in different site. How to check its functionality after promoting.
Thanks

Dear
I have two Domain Controllers.
AD50 & AD100
If i give AD50 as primary DNS in Network connections of client machine, it work fine and users are able to logon
If i give AD100 as primary DNS in Network connections of client machine, It gives user name and password incorrect error to remote desktop users whereas domain admins are able to logon.
Replication, AD health, DNS all are working fine on ADs.
Any idea???

I'm in the process of a domain rename.

When I run the command:
Dcdiag /test:DNS /DnsRecordRegistration /s:<my domaincontroller>
I get the following errors:

I'm having issues replicating between my Primary DC (Which is also my primary DNS server) and my secondary DC (also DNS server).
My primary is running server 2003 R2 Standard SP2
My secondary is running Server 2012 Standard
If I go to the AD Sites and services console, right click on the server under "sites" and click "replicate now" I can an error while trying to synchronize stating that the "Target Principal name is incorrect."
I also get a kerb_app_err_modified error when I run dcdiag on the 2012 DC.
How can I resolve this?

dns server detected that is not enlisted in the replication scope, also The DSA operation is unable to proceed because of a DNS lookup failure. lost of errors in the event logs event id 1578, 1126, 1926.

Hi,
I have been trying to configure a new ADC to transfer all the FSMO Roles from the old RDC (Root Domain Controller) but facing some issues on configuring the new ADC. Would like to get some solution over here. When I promoted a new Machine
on the ADC, I didn't got 'SYSVOL' as well 'NETLOGON' folder as a share folder so looking after few blogs and forum i enabled it playing some key in registry which make sysvol to get appear on my ADC. But I am not able to replicate the content of SYSVOL from
RDC to ADC. I tried to check the replication status, everything is ok. there is no issue on replication too. Can anyone help me to solve this issue??
I demoted two 2003 R2 servers and turnded off the servers one of which was FSMO. Now when I run "DCDIAG /c /v /f:dcdiag.txt" on the new FSMO server ma-file1 it still shows the two demoted domain controllers ma-file and ma-util as shown below. I have cleaned DNS but can't seem to clear the below entries. I also made sure ma-file and ma-util are not in Sites and Services. Any ideas how to get this cleared. Again ma-file and ma-util only show up on ma-file1 when running dcdiag. The other DC's do not show ma-file or ma-util when running dcdiag.
ma-file and ma-util are demoted and turned off. Very odd.
erforming initial setup:
* Connecting to directory service on server ma-file1.
ma-file1.currentTime = 20140324215330.0Z
ma-file1.highestCommittedUSN = 300526
ma-file1.isSynchronized = 1
ma-file1.isGlobalCatalogReady = 1

I have a remote user who's domain account keeps getting locked out, and I'm completely stumped. Due to the lockout issues, we have disabled the domain lockout policy, and use the soft lockout function available in forefront TMG. This is working for everyone but the 1 user.
On the DC that is locking the account, I see the event ID 4740 in the security logs. What makes ZERO sense is the Caller Compuer shows has her workstation. Her workstation is a surface pro, which is not on a VPN. So it has no connection to the domain controller. When users that are connecting through TMG were getting locked out, the Caller Computer showed as the TMG machine.
I have gone through and cleared any saved credentials from the Credential manager on the workstation, yet the account is still getting locked out.
So why is this account getting locked out even though the lockout policy is disabled. And how is it showing the users workstation as the caller computer, when it has no direct connection to any domain controllers?
Hi,
I am trying to replicate 'member of' attribute to global catalog server, to get the data from child domain where trust is enabled.
i did a little reserach and found that 'isMemberOfPartialAttributeSet' should be true to get it replicated to global catalog server.
in schema, i am trying set 'isMemberOfPartialAttributeSet' true for "is-member-of-DL" attribute and getting illegal modification.
is there any other way, where i can modify (or with help of Microsoft).

I am not able to modify application partition (root object) in ADLDS instance.
In our directory we need one objectClass and its attributes in application partition (root) object. When I try to add this objectClass (simple modify command) it is throwing an error (Code 65-ObjectClasss violation), the same class was added in old directory (Sun ONE Directory Server).
The require objectClass and its attributes are available in ADLDS schema. Here are modify operation:
dn: O=Company.com
While loging to workstation getting trust relationship error & it is not allowing to login to the domain with domain account.
The soln. for this is to login with local administrator ID - Remove & rejoin the system to the domain.
Being a Server administrator can I manage the same process without intervention at workstation end.
Tried prestaging the computer name, resetting the existing computername in AD but didn't worked.
Pls let us know if having any alternate solution.

I have an intersting problem that I really need help. We are creating a group in domain two and will add users from domain one, they have different forest. We want to grant access rights to domain two website.
Only one user account from domain one is seen as 'user' when pulling from another domain (domain two), other users from domain one is seen as 'contact' in domain two.
I think this issue could be the result of no trust established between domain one and domain two. The reason it is showing as a 'contact' because user from domain one is pulling from domain two. I am told it's a central sync point for GAL.
My question is why one user from domain one is seen as 'user' from domain two? I could not see anything difference between this specific account with other accounts at domain one.
Any suggestion to solve this problem is appreciated. I could not find anything about this searching online, and I am still searching.
Thank You,

Quick question: Does AD LDS support multivalued RDN?
At the moment I am using OpenDS, where I have entries with DNs like this:
"myAttribute1=val1 +myAttribute2=val2+myAttribute3=val3, OU=instance1, DC=adtest"
It seems there is no way to do something similar in Active Directory, no?
Please advise.
Hi
I have created a Security Group, and delegate below rights to this Group.
Delegated can reset the password, but after resetting the users password, on account tab, user must change password at next logon got selected automatically.
And when delegated user try to uncheck this option or try to check another option it says access denied.
Even delegated user is not able change any option on account tab of users properties.
Same thing happening while delegated user created a new user with password never expire option
Below is Error Message.
Note:- delegated user can delete/Disable the user and can change the other properties
In my test environment these delegation rights working fine

I need to synchronize and Active Directory with Tivoli Directory Server.
Im implementing Cisco Unified Call Manager and this server needs to comunicate with Tivoli Directory Server, but it can not do it directly, so Im thinking to implement an Active Directory (something as a "proxy server") so the CUCM talks with the Active Directory and this one with the Tivoli Directory Server.
CUCM <------>Active Directory<-------> Tivoli Directory Server
Anyone could help me?
Thanks in advance
Is it feasible to use a network shared folder as the "Home" Redirection folder in Active Directory. For example:
Network attached storage lets call it a QNAP for the moment.
I add a mapped drive to \\someipaddress\share to drive letter G:
Taking into account windows ACLs will this work? By the way also for the v2/roaming profiles?
Thanks in advance.
