Raise our level of active directory for 2008

Currently we are running active directory on Windows 2008 R2 server and all our domain controllers are Windows 2008 R2 servers. But domian functional level is Windows server 2003 and windows 2000 forest functional level. What needs to be done before I can lift the two functional level to Windows server 2008?

Do I have to run the commands ' adprep /foreestprep and adprep /domainprep /gpprep before I can get up levels?

Please advise!

Thank you so much in advance!

  • Active Directory for authentication - authorization database

    Hello

    I searched a lot but could not find a way to work to do and I have Weblogic Server 10.3.4. My problem is; I currently have an Authenticator SQL read-only which validates the name of user and password and he also holds a group membership of those users. Thus, the when users are connected to our Flex application, they are authenticated and authorized through this security provider. Now, I want to * move the part name validation of username/password to Active Directory * and group membership and other roles etc will stay in the read-only SQL authenticator. To do this, I added the second security provider to my Kingdom which is Active Directory Authenticator, but right now because users are authenticated via Active Directory roles, the etc group memberships do not come to the user, resulting in not to be able to call EJB.

    So my question is, How can I manipulate simply authenticate users to Active Directory and other parties (roles, groups) of database (in the database I don't store the password more meaningless it longer)? Do I have to write a custom provider to do this, if this is the case can show you a way to work from the merger of two suppliers of security?

    Thank you.

    Yes, you will need to create a security provider for this.

  • Can OBIEE on UNIX OS - we use LDAP using Microsoft Active Directory for UNIX OS?

    We are looking at options to run OBIEE 11 g on a UNIX server.

    Can we use authentication using Microsoft Active Directory LDAP for authentication OBIEE?

    Short answer: Yes.

    Longer answer: Yes you can. Operating system has no influence on that. All you need is the ability to connect to LDAP, and it's pure networking.

  • Authentication Active Directory for Jabber video

    Hello

    I managed to configure my control of VCS to join my AD domain name, so now my video Jabber authenticate accounts with the credentials of the AD.  I downloaded certificates appropriate for VCS to make connecting to AD is encrypted TLS.

    I use the Provisioning Extensions on X7.2 and TMS 13.2.1.

    Before the addition of the VCS to the domain AD and passage to TMSPE, Movi accounts would authenticate on the (Agent of TMS) database on the VCS control, regardless of the authentication request came control VCS, or has been transferred from the highway of VCS.  Now Jabber clients trying to authenticate on the highway to VCS fail if the default Zone or subzone default are set to "verify the credentials.  If I change the settings of the area to be "treat as authenticated"... it works, but they are not actually be authenticated, since no matter what password is accepted.  Of course, this isn't a good idea.

    So my question is basically, what I'm missing?  Am I supposed to join the motorway VCS to AD as well?  Given the external location of the highway, it's a less-than-desirable solution; No there is no way to pass authentication to AD requests to the VCS control?

    I read 'Cisco_VCS_Authenticating_Devices_Deployment_Guide_X7-2' and the relevant sections of the Admin Guide VCS and I don't know if I'm missing it but I can't find information to lead me in the right direction here.

    Hi Anthony,.

    It is not necessary to join the motorway to listing! Highway should pass any authentication control and should be able to register without the need to join the domain.

    Ideally, requests authentication from the highway should be sent to the control and control put in question the user for credentials.

    for authentication of clients jabber by highway, you should put the area crossed the vcs control to check the credentials and on Highway information, keep the default zone do not check the credentials.

    Also check if you set the ADS services on the highway? If so, turn it off...

    Thank you

  • Installation of Active Directory LDAP for the editor

    I hope it is easy.
    I have 10.3.4.1 BEEP and answers/dashboards. Answers/dashboard currently use active directory for authentication. I would like to do the same thing with BEEP.
    How can I do?
    Since I have now two products I have to go to a place of business?


    Article links would be fine. There is nothing in the manual of the editor on LDAP or Security (really). The websites I found display a file xml with a series of parameters, but they seem to refer to an earlier version of publisher.

    Should be easy points.

    Did you check this: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12844_01/doc/bip.1013/e12188.pdf?

    Your version is 10.1.3.4.1?

  • Oracle Forms and Microsoft Active Directory

    Application server = 10.1.2.2.0
    Database server = 10.2.0.3.0

    We have a connection to a database (for example abcd/abcd@abcd). The login is in the formsweb.cfg file.

    Users click a URL that opens the first form (10g), where they must enter their username and password. The "When-new-form-Instance" trigger will use the data entered to check the username and password is correct on a users Table. It will also recover the level of security for members of the staff.

    If authentication fails, a message in a form and they can not go further.

    If authentication is successful then the first form of the system is displayed. The level of security is used to decide what forms/States are available for this user and the data that is displayed. The user ID is used throughout the system to save the changes made by the user.

    We went to Microsoft Active Directory and I have a requirement to allow a user to simply click on a link and the application opens with the data and access. I also need the user ID in the application.

    Is it possible to either from the Microsoft Active Directory for the Oracle Forms user ID or is there a way to recover it from in Oracle Forms.

    Thanks in advance

    I seem to remember that we did in an installation of web Forms6i a few years ago.

    We used the ONE LOGON trigger to invoke the DBMS_LDAP package to interact with the microsoft server active dir.

    There are several ways to do it now with SSO also.

  • How to remove OracleContext of Active Directory

    All,

    We have extended our Windows 2003 Active Directory schema using the NetCA tool to test the integration of commercials with oracle 11 g. Completed trials, we are looking for a way to remove the schema extensions properly and remove OracleContext of Active Directory container. I was not able to find any documentation on this process. If anyone can help?

    You will probably want to consult Microsoft documentation.

    I found this:

    Removal of the schema information

    It is not possible to remove the schema object definitions. However, object definitions can be made unusable by the deactivation process. When an object definition is disabled, it is no longer can be used to create objects in the directory. Objects whose definitions have been disabled in the schema are designated as extirpated. >

  • authentication Microsoft Active Directory iDRAC 7

    Hello

    I installed Microsoft Active Directory on iDRAC 7 with some very basic options (no certificate, no Single Sign-On, not Kerberos Keytab, the Standard schema). Everything works fine.

    The problem is that we have 2 forests with full trust configured between them and iDRAC is not able to authenticate the users of both of them.

    Basically, we have the single domain on 1 security group and pair the users of these two forests (1 and foret2). If I add domain (DC) IPs for two areas-forest controllers, authentication fails on the first domain controller, if the user is a different domain (check does not reach the second DC IP to verify the user). The error I get:

    ERROR: failed to bind: Invalid credentials, 80090308: LdapErr: IDDM-0C0903A9, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, 52nd data, v1db0: [email protected] host = 192.168.0.1.

    [email protected] - 1 user
    192.168.0.1 - foret2 DC IP

    Does IDARC support AD authentication for users of forest separated couple?

    Thank you

    iDRAC do not support authentication Active Directory for the domain of the unique forest.
