NETLOGON 5723, 5805, 5722 from none existent computer

NETLOGON 5723, 5805, 5722 from none existent computer

 

I have a single domain with Windows 2012, 2008 and 2003 domain controllers. Domain forest functional level 2003.

 

All domain controller have NETLOGON 5723, 5805, 5722 errors caused by one computer. The problematic computer was a Surface Pro 3 which we no longer have and is no longer on the network.

 

I have seen this type of problem before and simply disjoint and rejoin the computer to the domain to fix the problem. However. This particular computer “ST339”, I just cannot remove the NETLOGON 5723, 5805, 5722 errors from the domain controller’s event log.

 

I have no replication and network connectivity issues. The whole network is on a local Ethernet LAN.

 

I have done the following:

 

Deleted DNS records to the machine, deleted computer account in the domain computers container, deleted DHCP record.

 

Used both different Windows 7 PC and Windows 8.1 laptop to try to fix the problem by changing their name to ST339 and join/disjoin/rejoin to the domain. Tried this multiple times.  Even used a new Windows 7 installation (not image) to make are there are no SID issues.

 

Also used UTDSUTIL to check for duplicate SID in the domain and found none.

 

I can tell the computers can join the domain fine because AD show the computer ST339 and DNS record added (the AD shows computer with the correct OS i.e. Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 indicating it was jointed correctly). After I disjoin the computer, the DNS record and the AD computer account are removed.

 

With a computer joined to the domain with ST339, I get the following error:

 

NETLOGON 5722 and shows this error exactly 4 hours apart down to the very second:

"The session setup from the computer ST339 failed to authenticate. The name(s) of the account(s) referenced in the security database is ST339$. The following error occurred:

Access is denied."

 

With the computer disjointed from the domain and I made sure no records of it in the DNS and domain, I get errors 5723:

"The session setup from computer 'ST339' failed because the security database does not contain a trust account 'ST339$' referenced by the specified computer."

 

Followed by 5805 a few minutes apart:

“The session setup from the computer ST339 failed to authenticate. The following error occurred:

Access is denied.”

 

Again, my issue is I can’t prevent those errors. With the computer joined to the domain or the computer disjointed and all records deleted from the domain.

 

Also tried reset computer account from the AD.

 

DCDIAG shows no issues

 

Checked clock on DC and the computer.

 

I found this similar thread here and it was unsolved:

Virtual Server creation with domain controller.

I was wondering if any one could assist me. I come from a programming background and not familiar with Hyper V etc. 

This is what I have so far, I have two virtual machines installed. I would like one server to be Active Directory and a domain controller and the other server to be able to join the domain. This is purely for testing and not a production environment. 

Any articles or pointers would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Multiple Computers receive Access Denied at logon. User credentials are valid. Windows 7 Pro

$

Windows 7 Pro 64 bit computer working normally or recently rebooted. User tries to logon and the access denied message displays. I try to logon with local admin account and get the same error. Sometimes rebooting the pc will allow you to logon correctly but we have had to boot into safe mode and choose "active directory repair" on several machines. This has happened on several windows 7 desktops and one 2008 r2 server running Terminal Services. We have about 80 user computers and so far 10 have had this issue over the last month.

Our 2 DC servers are Windows 2008 R2. I couldn't find any AD errors.

To "fix" the pc we had to:

1.Boot into Safe Mode with Command Prompt
2.At the DOS prompt (Cmd) window, type MSCONFIG and press Enter
3.When MSCONFIG opens click the "Boot Options" tab
4.Click the option for "Active Directory Repair"
5.Exit MSCONFIG, and reboot the PC
The PC will boot into Safe Mode regardless of what you choose (e.g. "Start Windows Normally")
You may need to reboot more than once for the repair to be completed, mine needed 2 times.

When a computer has the issue I cannot logon with the domain credentials or the local admin user credentials. Unplugging the network cable doesn't help. The only way to "fix" the issue is to boot into safe mode, login with local admin account and run msconfig, safe boot, active directory repair.

Does anyone know what Safeboot Active Directory repair does? I reboot into this mode and then I reboot again normally and the issue is resolved. If I knew what exactly happens when I boot into safe mode with active directory repair checked then maybe I can understand the problem more.

Changing the gid for a group in Active Directory

Hi,

This might be a stupid question. I am not a Windows nor am i a Linux admin. I am an IBM Infosphere admin. I have been trying to configure InfoSphere whith Active Directory. While the configuration itself has been successful, i have a faced a small obstacle with AD. I have a group on Linux which i want to be created on Active Directory with the same gid as in Linux. Creating the same group in Active Directory and adding users to the group has been simple. However, I am not able to find anything on changing the gid. I am using Active Directory hosted on Windows Server 2012 and the linux is RedHat Enterprise Linux 6.7

Help! I have no netlogon share, and sysvol empty

I expect you've seen this before as there's a lot of it on the web, but I've tried allsorts and no joy.

Existing Server 2008 R2 as single domain controller, holding all 5 roles

built new 2012 server in workgroup, and without adding to domain I added ADDS role and then promoted to be a domain controller in one swift action - this is possibly where I went wrong but..

server added ok, sysvol share created, but no netlogon.

There don't seem to be any errors on original server and dcdiag errors just show problems about no netlogon share:

I've don't have this reg key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Backup/Restore\Process at Startup

I've determined that FRS is eliminated on both old and new servers, so we should be using DFS, I've restarted that on both servers.

Can anyone help please as I can't carry on this migration without this working.  Should I demote the new DC and re-promote?

Thanks


Fine Grained Password Policy - Can't Update Password from Windows 7 Desktop

Last year, we upgraded to Windows 2012 R2 Active Directory so we can take advantage of the fine grain password policy.

Within the last month, we finally used the fine grain password policy in our organization.

Now that we are on the new password policy, some have reported that they can't change their password when using Ctrl-alt-del.  I tested myself and confirmed it. 

Our desktop is Windows 7 64bit Enterprise, and our desktop's are built in a Citrix VDI environment. 

Ideas or suggestions? 

Thanks

Is there way to create a claim that will the return the DN of all groups and super-groups a user is a MemberOf?

Currently running Windows 2012 R2 ADFS.

Example:

I have a structure of groups like the following.

GrandparentGroup ParentGroupA (memberOf=GrandparentGroup) ParentGroupB (memberOf=GrandparentGroup) GroupA (memberOf=ParentGroupA) GroupB (memberOf=ParentGroupA) GroupC (memberOf=ParentGroupB) GroupD (memberOf=ParentGroupB) UserA (memberOf=GroupA) UserB (memberOf=GroupA, memberOf=GroupB)

I want to return the full-DNs of GroupA, ParentGroupA, and GrandparentGroup when UserA logs in.

If building a claim is not possible are there other was to handle this scenario with ADFS?

I need to setup audit on Domain Controllers to log who creates users.

Ie: if me, with my login user xpto-admin created user01, I need to be possible to realize that user01 was created by xpto-admin. 

Is there any step-by-step or can you guide me to accomplish this task?

Thanks in advance.

Modify attributes in AD in bulk

Hello,

I have been tasked with a job I wish I wasn't... We have 900 users (students) at a school which the heads of the school want to have ALL of their usernames and primary email addresses changed.

What is the best way to go through all the accounts change the usernames (currently firstinitialLastname) and change them to the format that administration wants, no format, its the  first 4 letters of their last name followed by 3 random numbers generated by the student information system. On top of that I need to edit their proxy address to make the new username the primary email address and the current email address an alias (SMTP vs smpt)

Suggestions?

Domain Administrator can not access user's profile folder+Server 2012

$

Hello everyone

I recently setup a Windows Server 2012 and I created a test user with a roaming profile. It works fine but when I try to access the user's profile I get the message "You don't currently have permissin to access this folder. CLick continue to permanenlty get access to this folder". If I do that then the user loses permission to its own profile folder and can not login. a number of solutions online but nothing works for me.

I deleted the user, enabled policy "Add the administrators security group to roaming user profiles" then created another user but made no difference. I was unable to access the folder.

Another solution was to enable policy "Do not check for user ownership of Roaming profile folders" but no luck.

I also changed the registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\system\EnableLUA to 0 from 1, rebooted the server but still can't get access to the profile folders.

Does anyone has a solution/workaround about it? Any suggestions, please?

Many thanks



Cloned machine not appearing in Active Directory

Hello,


We have two Windows 10 machines on our network (DC's running Windows Server 2008 R2.) We used the first machine to create an image and cloned the second machine using Acronis Snap Deploy 5, however I've noticed the original machine is no longer appearing in Active Directory, only the cloned machine appears. Is there a utility I need to run to keep the SIDs from being duplicated?

AD Forest Trust User Account

I have a Windows 2008 R2 Forest in which I've created an outgoing forest trust with an external customer.  This same Forest that I'm managing has four other two way trusts.  Two are Forest level trusts and two are child domains.  When I launch adsiedit and browse to the Users container, I can see where user accounts to authenticate the trusts were created for all of my two way trusts, but not for my one way outgoing trust.

Why is there not a user account for this one?

Thanks in advance

MEMBER OF missing groups when viewing as help desk user

2008r2 Domain Controllers

When I view the MEMBER OF tab of a given user with my admin account, it lists all groups the user is a part of as expected.

However when I view the MEMBER OF tab of the same user with a help desk user, only the DOMAIN USERS group is listed.

I have checked that the help desk user has READ MEMBER OF permissions. With the help desk user I can browse to the group and list members of the groups without issue.

What could be the cause of this?

Cannot open ADUC or other AD related managment consoles on DC if first DC is unavailable

$

I'm having an interesting problem.  Note that I'm new to AD, so there might be a simple solution that I'm just missing.

We have two domain controllers, DC1 and DC2.  I am doing some testing with DC2 to ensure things are going to work the way we want them to, but so far they aren't.

I made it so that DC2 would be unable to talk to DC1 over the network.  The reason I'm doing this test is that DC2 will go into a remote site which will tie back to the site housing DC1 by site to site VPN.  I am trying to simulate how DC2 will behave if the internet connection at either site were to go down and sever the VPN connecting them.

As it stands, DC2 seems to be severely crippled if it can't talk to DC1.  I'm also noticing that I can't remote desktop to DC2 when it can't reach DC1, it fails with an error stating that the domain either doesn't exist or could not be contacted.  This seems non-sensical since I'm trying to connect to a domain controller that is setup as a global catalog.

I am aware that I can use mstsc /admin and it will let me remote to DC2 when it can't contact DC1.  That's not good enough.  While we get 2 free RDS CALs for Administration, we have more than 2 Admins that need access to this machine and we have purchased the requisite CALs.  Since we have more than 2 Admins, this must work in regular remote desktop mode, not /admin mode.

I need DC2 to be functional in a basic way such that our Admins can remote into it and work even if the VPN connection between our branch office and main office is down for whatever reason. What settings am I missing here that will correct these issues?


Windows 7 64 Bit and Active Directory Recycle Bin

$

Our domain has a combination of Windows 2012 R2 and Windows 2008 R2 domain controllers. The Recycle Bin is enabled and the restore is working well when I use the Active Directory Administrative Center from my Windows 8.1 laptop.

However my users with Windows 7 64 Bit using the Administrative Center aren't able to see the Deleted Objects container.

Is there something I need to enable on their version of the RSTAT?  or is there an update that I can apply?

Thanks for your advice.
