    Hi MSGG70,

    We do not have this information here (this forum is not for servers) and to be honest I'm not sure that the info is available anywhere or even published if known, but the best place to look and ask is to start here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/wnserverDS/threads.  Even if they don't know, they are more likely to know where or how to find out.

  • What needs to be changed if migrate us from Novell to MS Active Directory?

    We use ESX in recent years.  Currently, we are conducting vCenter 4 (- SQL Server 2005 database in mixed mode) with the Update Manager module.

    Our AMENDMENTS will migrate from Novell to Active Directory in the near future.

    We would like to know what will be the change that we need for users in vCenter Server for Active Directory?

    Currently, we just create vCenter users and assign different roles.

    Your feedback is very much appreciated.

    Not necessarily, it depends on how you want to run it. But it is easier to go with domain accounts.

  • Password locking Active Directory - Apple ID

    In my office, we have three Macbooks linked to the Active Directory domain and all the three machines to meet the same problem. On all three machines, we use different local Admin, Mobile AD managed accounts. Accounts use private Apple ID in Itunes and App store. All three accounts have experienced what seemed to be random AD accounts locks.

    We have managed to limit somewhat through troubleshooting a problem with Apple ID and keychain.

    Users, initially created their Apple ID with their e-mails and the company when they connect to their Apple App Store ID they get locked out AD almost immediately.

    After they changed their Apple ID to their private emails, they got locked out AD whenever they tried to authenticate more than 5 times on App Store (or any where else some application requires Apple ID). Even if their identity papers have absolutely nothing to do with their usernames and passwords AD account. Somehow Apple ID or key ring tries to authenticate against AD. Whenever you enter the password wrong or correct it increments the counter "badpwdcount" of 1. If you try to authenticate five or repeatedly, causes it to lock the user of the AD because of the "5 bad passwords GPO" in AD.

    Even if the user enters a password valid, it always raises the 1 meter. If the user authenticates Apple ID with its business e-mail the lockout is immediate, which would mean the Apple itself ID forces on AD in quick succession or done something that causes lock it the user to use the e-mail AD and move. Is not question even if the pass is the same on the AD and Apple ID.

    Can you suggest what newspapers should happen to us AD to eventually find the reason that newspapers we checked that no information. Even the attribute which must display the name of the computer where the lockout was made has no information.
    We know when the lockout occur and we manage to avoid them but we would like to know why they happen. Why Apple ID, or Keychain has something to do with authentication on AD.

    We have studied this issue widely on the Interwebs and found no information that we could carry on. Locking issues revolve around a few old passwords stored on IPad and other similar positions only here on communities are way back in 2007. None of this information relates to our AD locking problems.

    We even did some heavy troubleshooting with certificates, but nothing helped.

    Someone else has the same or similar problems?

    I run several Mac Pro and Macbook Pro (El Capitan OS X 10.11.5 & 10.11.6) with the mobile AD accounts and links AD back to the domain AD WIN2012R2 server, where connection system is different from the apple ID used to access the apple store/itunes and have no problem with locked out as you describe.

    I've known a lot of problems but with "compatibility between previous versions of Mac OS X (Mavericks and Yosemite)" with WINSBS2003 then WIN2008 Server OS. Do not know what is the relationship of platform (OS X to WIN) of the software you have.

    I have found many problems have been fixed just by signing on iCloud, restart the MAC then sign in iCloud, don't know if doing the same thing could help you. The offender has generally been OS X, especially after an upgrade.

    Are your Mac related to AD, but search LDAP and NIS or too? This was one of my problems with WIN2008 and Nonconformists.

  • recover deleted active directory users

    I got Server Essentials 2012 version final candidate installed on my server, and I got to this level because the license runs out. So, to do this, I formatted the hard drive and installed the trial version of Server 2012 Essentials.

    However, since I deleted all the objects directory active Directory, users can access their profiles the SID are all different... something I did not consider at the same time.
    Is that what I can do to assign these profiles to another account SID or something?
    I have Windows 7 and Windows 8 customers.
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Although you should check for a definitive answer in a forum server, I'd say you're watered.  There is no way to re - associate old profiles with a SID generated recently to a different domain controller.

    PS - You should never, EVER, run evaluation or beta software in a production environment.  But you probably figured that now.  ;-(

  • Strategy of Kerberos WinServer2008r2 Active Directory group

    Hi all

    Need help bad in this. I'm trying to implement kerberos on my active directory. What I understand is kerberos is the default and the primary authentication protocol used when connected to a domain, but where and how do I configure kerberos settings in group policy? I managed to find configurations of kerberos in the "Local Group Policy Editor", but this would not push configurations to my clients right?

    I want to disable NTLM authentication as well and once again I can found under local policies > security options, but they are all local policies right? Is it possible that I can disable NTLM on my active directory and ensure that these settings are applied to my both client computers?

    Thank you so much in advance!
    PS: Sorry if I got some of my facts wrong, I'm a student performs internship and my understanding in active directory is not as strong.
