ADFS2012R2 Install: Why does this need Active Directory Domain Admin Account as one of the pre requisites for installating AD FS server

Team,
We were trying to configure AD FS through ADFS Wizard on Windows 2012 R2 box as part of ADFS upgrade from ADFS 2.0 to ADFS 3.0. But the installation got stuck in between as the domain account which we were using does not have admin privileges on the AD side. 
We have to raise to AD team to elevate the rights of the service accountb we are using.
Can any one please tell me why having an admin AD account is pre requisite for the AD FS configuration, what are the "Write" changes which occur at Active Directory side post ADFS installtion, we need this details to supply to AD team for the justification
purpose.
Would appreciate any detailed response on this query
thanks
Lav

Hi,
dont know all exact objects ADFS is trying to create in AD, but it needs to create some container and objects under cn=Programm Data,DC=domain,dc=com for sharing certificates.
We had troube with this because the container does'nt exists.

  • AFP only works for Active Directory "Domain Admins"

    I have purchased a new XServe to add to our Active Directory domain as a member server. It all seems to work right except that only users in AD who are members of the "Domain Admins" group seem to function properly under AFP.
    The Mac Clients can connect to our Windows boxes just fine and AD login's seem to work for loggin in any clients. I've created a shared volume on the XServe and when I try to access it via AFP with any user account that doesn't have Administrator rights I get "Invalid Login or Password" on the Mac Client.
    Anyone got any ideas, this is driving me crazy.

    Post to the appropriate server forum or AD forum where people dealing with these products hang out.

  • I always want google classic, but sometimes i get google beta or google security (or whatever, can't remember its name) when i don't want it. why does this happen and how can i set google classic as the default?

    google is my default on the home page. But when i ask for google or simply open firefox, i sometimes get google beta or google security (or whatever its name is) instead of google classic. I just want google classic. How can i set it as my default. (I have a desk top computer, use firefox, and this never happens.)

    Why Apple can't undo its mistake?
    Whose mistake? The source of the problem:
    I was required to enter my recovery key. Now, there begins that huge flaw. I've forgotten it (I know it was my responsibility to remember it).
    If you had just taken the simple steps of storing your recovery key as Apple tells you to when you set it up, none of this would've happened.
    As it clearly states in the FAQ on 2-step verification: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
    After you turn it on, there will be no way for anyone to access and manage your account at My Apple ID other than by using your password, verification codes sent your trusted devices, or your Recovery Key. You must be responsible for:
    Remembering your password.
    Keeping your trusted devices physically secure.
    Keeping your Recovery Key in a safe place.
    If you lose access to two of these three items at the same time, you could be locked out of your Apple ID account permanently.
    In addition, with two-step verification turned on, only you can reset your password, manage your trusted devices, or create a new recovery key.
    Apple Support can help you with other aspects of your service, but they will not be able to update or recover these three things on your behalf.
    If you aren't responsible enough to do that, you should not have turned the optional security feature on.
    This is your fault, not Apple's.

  • Why does m4v need to be converted again

    Hi. I converted a dvd movie I bought into the ipod format .m4v using another converting software program I have. I then imported it into the videos section of my itunes. It would not load into my ipod unless i convertd it again using the itunes conver for ipod option. Why does this need to be converted again for ipod if its already in a .m4v and is there any way i can fix this so when im originally converting my movie with my converting software I can eliminate this last step in itunes. It takes up to 5 hours to convert in itunes. thanks

    I should also add that I am using a AVS video converter which has an IPod 5.5 converting option that makes my movies Highest available quality H.264, 30fps 640x480
    There are more Ipod options availble but im using the Highest quality available one. Maybe I should be using one of these:
    ipod 5x- NTFS Standard quality H.264 29.97fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x- PAL standard quality H.264 24fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x- low quality H264., 20fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x - Best quality (MPEG4, 24fps, 320X240)
    ipod 5x- economy quality (MPEG4, 20fps, 176X144)
    ipod 5x- for tv output (MPEG4, 24fps, 512X384)

  • Laptop (Running Windows 8.1) no longer able to print and now see message Active Directory Domain Services is not available

    Have a very recent Lenovo Ideapad Laptop running Windows 8.1. Connected via USB port to HP LaserJet Pro CM1415 frw Color MFP Printer. Was able to print fine nearly 2 weeks ago, but something recently happened - either a new windows or office 2013 update
    or perhaps I blew away a certain file by mistake. I can see the printer installed but cannot print to it from anything (Word, Notepad, IE, Firefox etc.). The one thing to note is that usually when I plug or unplug a USB related device, Windows 8.1 recognizes
    this and makes a certain chime noise, but with the printer USB cable it never makes that noise - making me think that it never fully recognizes the printer. Also when I select the printer (from within the control panel) and right click for properties (via
    admin rights) It never lets me fully connect to it.
    I have tried all the usual remedies - remove, install all drivers, reinstall printer, Windows update, start/stop print spooler and all other printer related services,  etc. Its really annoying because this printer was working fine nearly 2
    weeks ago. Looking for any advice now. Thanks.
    -Chris

    Hi Chris,
    à
    I have tried all the usual remedies - remove, install all drivers, reinstall printer, Windows update, start/stop print spooler and all other printer related services, etc.
    I noticed that you had reinstalled the printer. Just a confirmation, when un-install this printer, please check
    if this printer still exist in registry. For more details, please refer to following KB.
    Registry entries for printing
    If printer entry still exist in registry, please delete that printer entry and re-install this printer again,
    then check if this issue still exists. (Please backup registry entries before operating registry. It will help us to avoid unexpected issue.)
    àand now see
    message Active Directory Domain Services is not available
    By the way, would you please let me know where/when get this
    Active Directory Domain Services is not available error message? Or provide a screenshot of it?
    (Please hide all protected or private information) Please check if all services are running correctly on the computer. Meanwhile, please refer to following article and check if can help you.

  • Activating Windows 7 by using KMS Without the Active Directory Domain environment

    Dear,
                 Can we able to activate the Windows 7 O/S Machines by using KMS without the Active Directory Domain environment,As our some of the Computers will not connect with AD domain, we need to setup the speprate KMS
    server for this.
    Thanks
    Balaji K 

    You can point the KMS clients to the KMS host machine by opening an Elevated CMD prompt:
    and running slmgr /skms to point directly to the KMS host.
    You do not need a Domain controller.
    Volume Licensing: Key Management Service (KMS) Client Options:
    /skms <Name[:Port] | : port> [Activation ID] [Activation ID]                                                                                                          
    Set the name and/or the port for the KMS computer this machine will use. IPv6 address must be specified in
    the format [hostname]:port                          /ckms [Activation ID]

  • Migrating to new Active Directory Domain

    Hey people,
    I have a OSX Server here at a school which I need to move from an old Active Directory domain to a new one. We are having a restructure of our IT System and 90% of our equipment is PC but have a few macs on site for the specific tasks that we need them to do.
    The OSX server was set-up 2yrs ago by some consultant which charged an arm and leg, so its up to me this time round to configure it. It is not a vital part of the IT system so a rebuild is possible, but the quicker it can moved across the better.
    So my question is. Is it easier to "modify" the settings on the OSX Server to the new domain? i.e. change field names in Server Admin. or rebuild the server from scratch?
    Our configuration is Apple clients authenticate to AD, but grab all their settings and OSX group membership from the OSX server. I have here a guide called "Leveraging Active Directory on OSX" would this be useful if I need to rebuild the server? I am fairly confident that I wont run into too many problems, but things like kerberos settings, etc may confuse me. Any help would be excellent!

    Hi,
    perform homogeneous system copy if you migrate from one server to other.
    find document at service.sap.com/systemcopy
    if you just add you local system to domain then look following
    Domain name change for an existing SAP System

  • IPAD/Network Shares/Active Directory Domain

    Can an IPAD connect to Network Shares within an Server 2003 Active Directory Domain? If so how?

    The iPad cannot natively connect to file shares. There are third-party apps that allow this, though. FileBrowser is one that is often recommended:

  • Pre requisites for installing SAP Router

    Hi Friends,
    As i am going through the implementation phase, I have to install sap router which i am new at. Also i am doing it because i have to connect Maintenance Optimizer to Sap service Market place for which Router would be essentially required.
    I have some questions to put forth.
    1. what are the pre requisites for SAP Router
    2. Do we require Public IP and what would be the use of this ip
    3. how to configure the SAP Router
    4. Can i install the SAP router on the same host on which we have Solution manager, is it advisable. or we should go for a seperate host.

    Installing the sapcrypto library and starting the SAProuter
    Contents
    u2022     Downloading necessary software components from SAP Service Marketplace
    u2022     Creating the certificate request
    u2022     Additional actions necessary before you can start saprouter
    This section describes the necessary steps to download and install the sapcrypto library for use with saprouter. The saprouter must be started with the options described later in this section.
    The license for the sapcrypto library covers  saprouter connections between saprouters at SAP and the first saprouter on customer sites and backend connections within the customer`s network. For all other purposes the library CANNOT be used!
    Downloading necessary software components from SAP Service Marketplace
    1.     Login to the SAP Service Marketplace with the Service Marketplace USERID which is assigned to your installation.
    2.     Change to the alias SAPROUTER-SNCADD. Before you can download the software components two preconditions must be met.
         a.     You must have been allowed to download the software. This authorization is added as soon as SAP has received a positive statement from the "Bundesausfuhramt". This procedure is necessary since the software falls under EU regulations.
         b.     For more information on how to obtain authorization if download is not possible see note 397175.
         c.     You must accept that you must follow the regulations imposed by the EU on the use and distribution of the cryptographic software components downloaded from the SAP Service Marketplace.
    3.     The acceptance of the terms and conditions is logged with your USERID and stored for reporting purposes to the "Bundesausfuhramt".
    4.     Accepting with the button on the web-based form takes you to the folder where you can download the Software components.
    These are packed into a single CAR file sapcrypto.car
    5.     Copy the file to the direcory where the saprouter executable is located
    6.     You can get the file car.exe/sapcar.exe, which is necessary to unpack the archive from any Installation Kernel CD.
    Executing the command car -xvf SAPCRYPTO.CAR will unpack the following files:
    [lib]sapcrypto.[dll|so|sl]
    sapgenpse[.exe]
    ticket
    Creating the certificate request
    1.     As user <snc>adm set the environment variables
    SECUDIR = <directory_of_saprouter>
    2.     Change to the Shortlink SAPROUTER-SNCADD. From the list of SAProuters registered to your installation, choose the relevant "Distinguished Name"
    3.     Generate the certificate Request with the command
    sapgenpse get_pse -v -r certreq -p local.pse "<Your Distinguished Name>"
    4.     Alternatively use the two commands:
    sapgenpse get_pse -v -noreq -p local.pse "<Your Distinguished Name>"
    sapgenpse get_pse -v -onlyreq -r certreq -p local.pse
    5.     Display the output file "certreq" and with copy&paste insert the certificate request into the text area of the same form on the SAP Service Marketplace from which you copied the Distinguished Name
    6.     In response you will receive the certificate signed by the CA in the Service Marketplace, cut&paste the text to a local file named srcert
    7.     With this in turn you can install the certificate in your saprouter by calling
    sapgenpse import_own_cert -c srcert -p local.pse
    8.     now you will have to create the credentials for the SAProuter with the same program (if you omit -O <user>, the credentials are created for the logged in user account)
    sapgenpse seclogin -p local.pse -O <user_for _saprouter>
    9.     This will create a file called cred_v2 in the same directory.
    For increased security please check that the file can only be accessed by the user running the SAProuter.
    Do not allow any other access (not even from the same group)!
    On UNIX this will mean permissions being set to 600 or even 400!
    On NT check that the permissions are granted only to the user the service is running as!
    1.     Check if the certificate has been imported correctly
    sapgenpse get_my_name -v -n Issuer
    The name of the Issuer should be: CN=SAProuter CA, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE
    2.     If this is not the case, delete the files cred_v2, local.pse and start over at Item 4.  If the output still does not match please open a customer message in component XX-SER-NET-OSS stating the actions you have taken so far and the output of the commands
    4.,7.,8. and 10.
    Additional actions necessary before you can start saprouter
    1.     The environment variable SNC_LIB needs to be set for the user account SAProuter is running under.
    SNC_LIB has the form
    UNIX      <path_to_libsecude>/<name_of_sapcrypto_library>
    Windows NT, Windows 2000     <drive>:\<path_to_libsecude>\<name_of_sapcrypto_library>
    2.     Check if the environment of the user running saprouter contains the environment variable SNC_LIB
    UNIX     printenv
    Windows NT     System environment variable
    3.     start the saprouter with the following command line:
    saprouter -r -S <port> -K "p:<Your Distingushed Name>"
    -K tells the saprouter to start with loading the SNC library
    the corresponding file ./saprouttab should contain at least the following entries
    inbound connections MUST use SNC
    KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <your_server1> <port_number>
    repeat this for the servers and port_numbers you will need to allow,
    please make sure that all explicit ports are inserted in front of a
    generic entry '*' for port_number
    outbound connections to <sapservX> will use SNC
    KT "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <sapservX> <sapservX_inbound_port>
    permission entries to check if connection is allowed at all
    P <IP address of a local host> <IP address of sapserv2>
    all other connections will be denied
    D  * * *
    Example
    For a SNC encrypted connection to the SAPRouter on sapserv2 (194.39.131.34), the saprouttab should contain the following entries:
    SNC-connection from and to SAP
    KT "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" 194.39.131.34 *
    SNC-connection from SAP to local R/3-System for Support
    KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <R/3-Server> <R/3-Instance>
    SNC-connection from SAP to local R/3-System for NetMeeting, if it is needed
    KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <R/3-Server> 1503
    SNC-connection from SAP to local R/3-System for saptelnet, if it is needed
    KP "p:CN=sapserv2, OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE" <R/3-Server> 23
    Access from the local Network to SAPNet - R/3 Frontend (OSS)
    P <IP-addess of a local PC> 194.39.131.34 3299
    deny all other connections

    i cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    I am having the exact same problem with trying to sync my iPad with my computer. To make a long story short, I had to reinstall Windows for my computer and therefore had to reinstall itunes.
    I have done back ups in the past for my ipod touch and other ipods with no problems, but unfortunately I have never been able to back up my iPad. During a sync, the iPad would always disconnect from my computer and it would never finish. it would say the connection was lost, but nothing is wrong with the connection.
    So now I have over 100 apps and thousands of pictures that I am afraid will be deleted if I run the sync in itunes. I have tried to transfer purchases and it goes through the list of apps, but nothing is ever transferred.
    Any help would be appreciated. I am not interested in jailbreaking my iPad to solve this problem. There should be a fix for this and I want to upgrade to ios 4.3 as the original poster. Please help

  • While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store

    While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store.

    The Mountain Lion installer looks at your internal drive to make certain that it's error-free before continuing installation. You should have an application named "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" in your Applications folder now so you shouldn't have to download it again. Do this...
    Boot to your Lion recovery partition by holding down both the Command and the R keys while booting. Open Disk Utility from the Recovery partition and select your hard drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it) and click on Verify Disk. If you come up with any errors, click on Repair Disk. At the end of the cycle you will get a message that the disk was successfully repaired or a message that the hard drive could not be repaired.
    If you're able to repair the disk, just reboot as normal and open the "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" and the installation will proceed. If Disk Utility was unable to repair the disk, you need to get to your local Apple Store as soon as possible so that they can see if the disk is salvageable or beyond repair.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

  • When I open about this mac - more info and I switch through the tabs (display,memory,storage,support,service) it lags (fps drops, animation looks choppy not smooth). Why does this happen? (over 300 gb free,same programs installed,free desk-downloads)

    When I open about this mac -> more info and I switch through the tabs (display,memory,storage,support,service) it lags (fps drops, animation looks choppy not smooth) even though all the mac (programs , interface ) works smooth . Why does this happen? (over 300 gb free,same programs installed,free desktop-downloads -no garbage there- everything neat and tidy.) Need some help. Only there it the animations goes like 2 fps and is not smooth. I do not understand why because the programs are the same so its the usage. Nothing is changed, yet i experience this little issue for a couple of days.

    OK, I'm confused. When I do About this Mac > More Info in OS10.9, I don't see any animation other than the window resizing. Is that the animation you are describing?
    Which if any of the following apply to your computer:
    1) Are you running any anti-virus/internet security applications?
    2) Are you running any "cleaning/tune-up/optimizations" applications?
    3) Any peer-to-peer or torrent downloading software?
    4) Any third-party disk backup software that came bundled with an external hard drive?
    5) Any online backup scheme other than iCloud (Carbonite; GoogleDrive; MS One Drive)?
    6) Did your financial institution ask you to install Trusteer EndPoint Protection (also known as Trusteer Rapport)?
