Trust relationship error on PDC

$
0
0

Hello,

We are getting the error "The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship" on our main domain controller.  We have a primary domain controller and also a second domain controller on one domain.  We are unable to logon to the PDC when this is happening and have to do a hard reboot to get it back up.  At the same time our VPN does not roll over to the BDC so we are unable to logon at the time of the error.

We are receiving 5722, 5805 in reference to the BDC on the PDC and we are getting 5783 (in reference to the PDC) and 5719 on the BDC.  We are also getting 7 on the PDC as well mentioning the security account manager failed a KDC request. 

I've been jumping all over the net to find a solution, but it seems they are all in regards to workstations or other servers with the trust relationship error and nothing in regards to this error on a PDC. 

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Hi All,

  I have 6 Site and SiteA(Prod) and SiteB (DR) connect to the Internet. All other sites are connect to internet via SiteA.

How do i configure DNS Forwarders.

 SiteA : Internet Provider 1 / Internet Provider 2

 SiteB: Internet Provider 1 / Internet Provider 2

 SiteC: SiteA & SiteB DC

SiteD: SiteA & SiteB DC

Is this correct?

  • Uncheck the box for "Use root hints if no forwarders are available".

Unable to get a user's full list of group memberships from global catalog

$
0
0

I'm having trouble getting a user's full list of group memberships from a global catalog inside a single forest.

The scenario is a bit unique:

We have 2 domains within the forest - domainA.example.com and domainB.example.com:

  • The domains share a transitive trust between them.
  • Each domain has a single domain controller, which are also global catalogs.
  • domainA holds only computer objects, while domainB holds only user objects and group.
  • I am trying to get the user's group memberships, which are all globalgroups.

The client i'm using (a java client i wrote) doesn't have access to domainB directly, only to domainA.

Therefore, in order to get a domainA user's list of group memberships, i have to query domainA... i did this using Global Catalog - the problem was that when i ask the GC from domainA to get me the list of groups (using thememberOf attribute),i get a partial list of groups (65 groups out of 106 groups the user belongs to).

I am trying to figure out why that is, and whether or not this is even the correct method, considering the fact that i don't have direct access to domainB (it is blocked via a firewall)




Randomly slow login with roaming profile in DFS Namespace but fine when in same root share???

$

0

Hi

I have an issue with random login speeds and it seems to boil down to DFS Namespace.

Server 2008 R2 WDC at HQ (namepace server)

Server 2008 R2 RODC at test site (namespace target)

I have an XP client test pc at the test site which logs in super quick with the profile path written as \\RODC\Profiles$\%username%

But if I change the profile path to \\domain.com\Profiles\%username% then login hangs around randomly at different points and is very sluggish

This is doing my head in because I really need to get this nailed so I can continue to roll out AD with Roaming Profiles across multiple sites.  Fast login is critical!

Please help?

Many thanks

Grant Read Access to Active Directory Deleted Objects Container on Windows 2012 domain.

$
0
0

I am installing Checkpoint in a Windows 2012 domain.  I created an service account for the active directory scanner and am now required to give it special permissions for checkpoint to the "Deleted objects container".

I was able to find this KB article for windows 2000 and 2003.  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892806

I need to know if this is still valid for 2012?  Or if there is an updated KB article I am missing somewhere.

I am trying to avoid making this account a domain admin.

Please advise.

This is the guide from checkpoint:

Directory Scanner

If your organization uses the Microsoft Active Directory Service, you can import users, groups, Organizational units (OUs) and computers from multiple AD domains into the Endpoint Security Management Server. After the objects are imported, you can assign policies that appropriately reflect the needs of the organization.

Setting Directory Scanner Credentials

When you first login to the Endpoint Security Management Console, theMy Organizationtree is empty. To populate the tree with users from the active directory, use the Directory Scanner Configuration Service.

The Directory Scanner scans the defined Active Directory and fills theDirectoriesnode in the My Organization tab, copying the existing Active Directory structure to the server database. For this to succeed, the user account associated with the Check Point AD Scanner service requires read permissions to:

All Active Directory containers from the root of the scanned Domain.

The deleted objects container.

An object deleted from the Active Directory is not immediately erased but moved to the Deleted Objects container. Comparing objects in the AD with those in the Deleted objects container gives a clear picture of network resources (computers, servers, users, groups) that have changed since the last scan.

Domain Upgrade & Cross Forest Trusts

$

Hi,

I manage a single  windows 2003 Forest with a single domain (AD Level Windows 2003 R2). I'm preparing to upgrade the domain to Windows 2008 R2 but before I do I'm hoping someone can advise if this will impact on a number of cross forest trusts I have with related organisations. 

The trusts are a mix of 1 way and 2 way non transitive domain level trusts. 

My query is, will I need to recreate these trusts after and "adprep /forestprep" or "adprep/domainprep" (getting resources on the opposing side lined up to do create\recreate trusts is a big job so I'm hoping the impact with be zero).

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Please can someone help me understand the process for extending AD schema for Exchange?

I’m conceded because there are some cautions noted generally in the process so i’m looking for best practice to ensure extending in a safe and smooth manor.

Bit of background on our environment - 

Moving to Office365 in a hybrid environment, never used Microsoft products for email. 

New On-prem AD Physical DC, 2012 Server with DirSync to Azure/ O365

OU’s populated with objects.

Would like to manage users and distribution groups from within AD on-prem.

Many thanks,

Bridgehead Server

How secure are bridgehead servers?  This is a question that my instructor asked me via discussion.


Account Operators couldn't reset their own passwords

$

0

We have new admin accounts created for the L1 admins and they're supposed to have the ability to unlock accounts, reset user passwords, create, delete and modify groups and membership, manage print servers and add/remove computers to domain.

These admin accounts are part of Account Operators, Print Operators and another security group (delegated in OU level for managing the workstations in the domain like adding/removing).

We're using Windows 2012 R2 Standard.

The issue is the new admin accounts have the ability to perform all their tasks other than resetting their own passwords. Appreciate your response on this as this is creepy and lingering for a week and still couldn't figure out the cause.

Force Forest Trust to establish between Core DCs

$
0
0

Hi,

The scenario is as follows; 2 forests which require a trust. Network comms only allow Domain Controllers residing in respective data centres to talk yet there are multiple remote sites in each forest.

I am finding that the verification and trust secure channel works intermittently and external network monitoring indicates DCs trying to talk to remote site DCs (which indeed fails).

_msdcs nslookup returns all DCs in 'other' domain and all with same priority and weight (0,100). There is conditional forwarding configured (also tried Stub and Primary Zones with same result). I am suspecting that a round robin / pseudorandom effect is happening that results in timeouts.

How does one establish consistent trust communication between 'bridgehead' domain controllers while ignoring those DCs that are not reachable?

Appropriate ports are open and tested. These are Windows 2008 DCs in Windows 2003 functional level. I have researched DCLocator and AD Site configuration without luck. If we need to change SRV records for ONLY those trust domain requests, how would that be achieved?

Thanks in Advance,

Al

  • IP - 192.168.1.4
  • Windows Server 2012
  • DNS : 127.0.0.1, 192.168.1.11

 

DC2

  • IP - 192.168.1.11
  • Windows Server 2008 R2
  • DNS : 192.168.1.4, 127.0.0.1

Workstation Computer

  • Windows XP
  • IP - 192.168.1.32
  • DNS : 192.168.1.11

Because I want to test the new DC(DC2), I shut down DC1 and tried to log in to the Workstation computer but it says the Domain is not available. But when I turn on the DC1 and try to log in, it logs me in fine even though the DNS I set on the workstation computer is only DC2 IP. That means, the workstation computer user account is always authenticated by DC1 even though the request goes through DC2. I'm not sure what is going on here. Any ideas??


Computer domain re-join

Hi

If we manually change the domain membership of a server from DomainA to DomainB, but then need to return it to DomainA (e.g. something doesn't work while on DomainB) can this be done cleanly ?  Or is it effectively creating a new computer account back in DomainA ?  With new GUID/SID etc ?

Would a full backup of the server (including system state) make any difference ? I don't think it would as it is the reference in A.D. which has been changed.

Does the computer account go disabled or get deleted when removed from DomainA ?  Or does this depend on what account is used to perform the task ?

Thanks
