EAS IP restriction to MDM servers

$

0

https://community.office365.com/en-us/f/158/t/228495

Dear ADFS Forum engineers and members,

I would like to refer to the case on top.

We use an on premise MDM solution with Exchange online. Recently a search has indicated that a lot of our users are connecting to Office365 Mailboxes using EAS via either Outlook app or native mobile device apps. We want to restrict email access using our MDM. 

Basically our goal is that users who try to connect through EAS with whatever client they use should not be granted access to their mailboxes. Only way should be that they install our MDM application and then they should be able to access mail. 

The built in claim rules on ADFS does not really answer our custom demand. 

Has anyone experience with such request? Any information provided will be highly appreciated.

Thank you,

A.Kurtay


Changing AD domain name

$
0
0

Hi all,

Let's say the company name is NODNOL

When our internal domain was setup many years ago the person who did it set it up as just one level ie. the FQDN is NODNOL.

So one of the servers for example is called SERVER1.NODNOL

Our email addresses are of the form rob@nodnol.co.uk

Now I wish to implement Exchange server, and from research I think it would make life easier if our domain was NODNOL.co.uk - is it possible to rename the internal domain NODNOL to this, or maybe start with a new domain NODNOL.co.uk?

Any thoughts welcomed.

Adding a Windows server 2012 DC to a Windows 2003 subdomain requires Enterprise Admins account

$

Hi,

We have a example.com forest running with Windows 2003 functional level. There are multiple subdomains in this forest (fr.example.com, pl.exqample.com ...). We already have deployed Windows server 2012 domain controlers for some subdomains (i.e. fr.example.com).

We know want to deploy a Windows server 2012 domain controler in our polish subdomain pl.example.com that currently only have only Windows server 2003 domain controlers. 

During the promotion of the new Polish Windows server 2012 domain controler (runned with an account member of Domain admin group of Polish subdomain), the installation process request for Enterprise Admins account to :

  • Domain preparation ( I understand this one)
  • Forest and schema preparation

I don't understand why it indicates "Forest and schema preparation". As we already have deployed Windows server 2012 servers in the forest and also domain controllers running this version of Windows OS in other subdomains, we should not have to make any Forest and schema preparation.

Please could you help me understand that point ?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Old DNS records are not deleted

$

I need help trying to understand why old DNS records are not deleted.

The host has been rebuild with the same hostname, ip has changed.

Looking at the properties of a record i see ""Delete this record when it becomes stale"" is checked.

The record time stamp is "8/‎20/‎2015 3:00:00 AM", according to this logic 

Record time stamp + No-refresh interval for zone + Refresh interval for zone<o:p></o:p>

If the value of this sum is greater than current server time, no action is taken and the record continues to age in the zone.

The record should be deleted "i think". What settings can i look for for further troubleshooting?

Thank you.

Setting custom attribute to AD user account

I have created a customer attribute in Schema and I am trying to set the value of the attribute to True for certain users. When I search the user by "Find" functionality  in Active Directory I do not see Attribute Editor tab. The only way to see the Attribute Editor is by browsing to the user account. I have 1.2 million users in AD and it is hard to load all users in AD user and computers window. 

Would any body know power shell command to the same.

Repadmin /syncall causes DC01 to try and replicate to itself and gets "Access Denied"

$

Hi Everyone. I have been trying to figure out this peculiar behavior from one of our DC's. We have 3 DCs in our environment and I can force replication on DC02 and DC03 with no issues. By issuing "repadmin /syncall" on DC02 and DC03, I get the following success message:

DC02: repadmin /syncall

    From: a9326fa6-e465-4a55-8fe4-143f4d2100e8._msdcs.test.com
    To  : 3dc7a026-c031-4bdc-915f-f200e0aebcba._msdcs.test.com
CALLBACK MESSAGE: The following replication completed successfully:

CALLBACK MESSAGE: The following replication is in progress:

CALLBACK MESSAGE: The following replication completed successfully:

    To  : 3dc7a026-c031-4bdc-915f-f200e0aebcba._msdcs.test.com

However, from DC01: repadmin /syncall

CALLBACK MESSAGE: Error contacting server 83ce846e-4d0b-485e-a414-4ac5abc39bc5._msdcs.test.net (network error): 5 (0x5):
    Access is denied.

SyncAll exited with fatal Win32 error: 8440 (0x20f8): The naming context specified for this replication operation is invalid.

The peculiar thing is that "83ce846e-4d0b-485e-a414-4ac5abc39bc5._msdcs.test.net" is actually DC01 itself:

DC01: nslookup 83ce846e-4d0b-485e-a414-4ac5abc39bc5._msdcs.test.net

Server:  dc02.test.net
Address:  x.x.x.40

Name:    dc01.test.net
Address:  x.x.x.120
Aliases:  83ce846e-4d0b-485e-a414-4ac5abc39bc5._msdcs.test.net

So why is DC01 trying to replicate to itself and not the other DCs? Or am I just looking at this wrong? We have only 1 site in Sites and Services, and all the DC's  have the correct connection links in NTDS Settings. 

Replication in our environment still works - just not when initiated from DC01. I can also manually replicate from DC01 when I specify the partition to replicate.

DC01: repadmin /replicate dc02 dc01 "CN=configuration,DC=test,DC=com"

Sync from DC01 to DC02 completed successfully.

Any ideas on why I cant do a repadmin /syncall on DC01?

Thanks!

Hi,

In my company we are using a forest (example.com) with multiple subdomains (sub1.example.com, sub2.example.com, sub3.example.com). The curest functional level of the forest is Windows server 2003.

As a particularity we have one of our subdomain still using Exchange 2003 (sub3.example.com), they plan to move to Office 365 :) !!

One of our subsdiary managing one of our subdomain (sub1.example.com), not the one with Exchange 2003,  wants to create a new domain controler using Windows server 2012 R2 operating system.

Is there any problem to introduce a Windows server 2012 R2 domain controler in the environement I describe above ?

Best Regards.

Qestion about Kerberos Version 5 Authentication Protocol in cross domains environment.

$
0
0

Hi,

I'm a software developer, and I implemented the SSO function in our product. I have a question about how does the Kerberos 5 Authentication work in cross domain environment.

the current status is:

1. In customer's company, there are two domains, Client Domain and Server Domain.

2. Server Domain trusts Client Domain. (One-way trust)

3. Client want access a service in Server Domain.

Customer found there are data traffic between the following machines:

1. Client machine and Client Domain AD machine.

2. Client machine and Server Domain AD machine.

3. Client machine and Server service provider machine.

Customer think the data traffic 2 (Client machine and Server Domain AD machine.) should not exist.

I read the document of < How the Kerberos Version 5 Authentication Protocol Works> https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772815%28v=ws.10%29.aspx

In the section of Cross-Realm Authentication Between Two Realms,

Cross-Realm Authentication Between Two Realms

To understand how cross-realm authentication works, first consider the simplest case: a network with only two realms, East and West. If administrators for these realms are members of the same organization, or if for some other reason they are willing to treat the other realm's users as their own, they can enable authentication across realm boundaries simply by sharing an inter-realm key. (In Active Directory domains this happens automatically when two domains establish a trust relationship.) After the inter-realm key is shared, the ticket-granting service of each realm is registered as a security principal with the other realm's KDC. As a result, the ticket-granting service in each realm can treat the ticket-granting service in the other realm as just another service, something for which properly authenticated clients can request and receive service tickets.

When a user with an account in West wants access to a server with an account in East, the process is:

  1. The Kerberos client on the user's workstation sends a request for a service ticket to the ticket-granting service in the user account's realm, West.
  2. The ticket-granting service in West determines that the desired server is not a security principal in its realm, so it replies by sending the client a referral ticket—a TGT encrypted with the inter-realm key that the KDC in West shares with the KDC in East.
  3. The client uses the referral ticket to prepare a second request for a service ticket, and this time sends the request to the ticket-granting service in the server account's realm, East.
  4. The ticket-granting service in East uses its copy of the inter-realm key to decrypt the referral ticket. If decryption is successful, it sends the client a service ticket to the desired server in its domain.

From the above description, I think the data traffic 2 (Client machine and Server Domain AD machine.) is function as designed. Am I right?

Then I want test my thinking, so I shared a file in a Server domain machine. Then I access this shared file from the client machine which is in the Client domain. I captured the data traffic in the client machine, and I did NOT found the data traffic between Client machine and Server Domain AD machine. This confused me. So my questions are:

1. In my customer's scenario, is the data traffic 2 reasonable?

2. If it's yes for question 1, why there is no data traffic 2 when client  accessing the shared file in Server machine?

Delegate rights to another user temporarily

[WS 2003; Active directory]

Hi all,

I was not able to find a solution to my problem on the internet so I come ask it here.

I am part of an organization of +300 employees, and we manage the rights for accessing to shared folders very specifically.

We map network drives for each department, user, project, etc. We also have a folder for exchange between users / departments containing many subfolders for each one several security groups are defined (containing specifics users)

The result of this is that each user belong to many security groups, and sometimes we need to grant to one user the same access of another user who could be in another department, accessing to different shared folders.

I wasn't able to find a way of delegating AD rights from one user to another one, do you guys know if it is possible in any way ? Or could you think of another way to approch this issue ?

Thank you for any help.

I have 
Forest A and Forest B

I have a one way trust from Forest A to Forest B , user sin Forest A can authenticate in Forest B. It's all good all up to here.

However, in Forest A if i go to the Domain controller, and I go to Active directory, I am able to list all users/objects/computers in Forest B if I go to "change domain".

How do I restrict this?

Please let me know any solutions to fix....

Steps, I did try from one of the blogs -

Open Component Services. Got oStart --> Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> Components Services. Expand the Component Services branch then expand Computers, My Computer and DCOM Config. Right-click on "sms agent host" (my case) and click Properties. Click on the Security tab and under “Launch and Activation Permissions” select "edit" and add user Local Service (Local lunch). Click OK, close the Component Services window.

In the Launch Permission dialog box, make sure that the Everyone group has Remote Launch and Remote Activation permissions.

In the Launch Permission dialog box, make sure that the SMS Reporting Users local group has following permissions:

Local Launch / Remote Launch / Local Activation / Remote Activation

Also added Remote Launch / Remote Activation permission for Network Service (for the SMS_Reporting_Point)

Added Admin Group to the "ConfigMgr Remote Control Users"
