Hi,
We are planning to upgrade CORP Domain from Windows 2003 Active Directory Schema to Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory Schema.

Windows 2008 R2 activation

Hello,
I'm trying to activate Windows 2008 R2 Standard on my computer and I get an error. I want to do the phone activation, but I do not get the phone numbers list (only a link to the help file), and I do not get the phone activation screen (with the fields for manual input). I looked for a number on the web but found only the volume license activation numbers. I have a standard license.
I live in Canada...does anybody know the number and how to get the phone activation screen?
Thanks.

Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory User can not change their password

Our AD domain already having two domain controllers with windows 2008 (not R2), last week we added one more domain controler with windows 2008 R2 for that we run domain prep and forestprep. After this domain no users can change their password by pressing ALT+CTRL+Del--Change password. Administrators can still reset the password, and if administrator provide the option change password and at next logon, it works, users can reset the password. But after login they can not.
The error telling the new password does not meet length,complexity, history requirements. We are sure their is no Group policy which setting password/account policy. And even we tried to attach a simple password policy domain level with out complexity.
Please provide a feedback..waiting for your response.
Thanks

additional info: up to Server 2008 R2, Windows ONLY supports ONE Password policy PER Domain. (exept: the R2 supports more pw-policies, but not with gpo, it has to be congifured with ADSI-Editor)
So, in case you still use the 2008 / R2 - you Need to know that ;))
regard..
Stephan Ertel - MCITP/MCSA -
From Windows 2008(Non R2) and higher is supported for more than one password policy with fine granted password polcy.DFL should be 2008.

Windows 2008 R2 AD auth for computer account

I am trying to use new computer account created in Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory from my external LDAP client. The LDAP client connection fails to connect displaying error "AcceptSecurityContext error, data 710, v1db1". The credentials
and other connection details are all correct. I see the same error code when I attempt to use localhost ldp.exe client from Windows 2008 server.
The audit failure log for the failed attempt has status code 0xC0000199 for which the description says "The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or local user account to access this server."
I am able to use computer account in Windows 2003 server from my LDAP client, and authentication works fine. Is there a special security setting required to make it work in Windows 2008 R2?.
Could anyone please help me here? Thanks

Hi,
So if here this account is used as service account, then check here:

Windows 7 user account is automatically locked every so often

Hello,
On Friday I changed the password to access to my user account (Win7 runs below Windows 2008 Operative Server). At short time I changed it, after I have entered in the account with my new password, the account was locked unexplainably. I unlocked it again,
and again at a short time the account was locked again automatically.
I dont know what`s going on.
Anybody knows why happens this?
Thanks with anticipation.
Regards

Hello,
I dont think there is a scheduled task, at least I am not consciously , ( I have also the role of the netowrk administrator).
Reading other threads I was afraid of Conficker worm has infected the server, but is issue only happens to me from the last Friday, never happened to me before.
I also have searched out, the event viewer of the Server, going to the Security log and filter by ID: 644, but there is no record of locked account showed, it seems that by that part everything is ok.
Is there any other audit application, that can show me where is the problem focused when the account is locked suddenly?
Thanks

Windows 2008 R2 DCs machine account password expiring

We've a mixed Windows 2008/2003 environment across 30 connected sites. There is a mixture of 2008/2003 DCs. We've had an issue whereby when some of the Windows 2008 R2 DC have been rebooted, they lose there trust relationship with the domain ie
we have needed to reset the Machine Account Password for the Windows 2008 R2 DC. This only happens after the reboot. Initially the problem was only occuring on one site, but now it has happened on 3 seperate sites.
Servers trying to communicate with the effected DC, are generating Kerberos Event ID 4 (KRB_AP_ERR_Modified) .
Any ideas what may be causing this issue.
Marcus.

Looks, error indicates that the secure channel between the DC's are broken.

Windows 2008 R2 Fax Server (Ongoing issue)

I have a Windows 2008 R2 active directory, fax services work inbound through USB modem - have 50 Windows 7 clients connecting to the fax server and outbound faxing works. Here's the issue: After a few days, the clients start getting server disconnected
on the fax clients. When I go to the Server, I restart the fax services, even though no event viewer shows any error's. I do see inbound fax errors of some not received, but these are not consistent when this happens.
I restart the fax services (by restarting print spooler service), and clients still show disconnected. If I remove the account from the Windows 7 Fax client and try to add it back - I get the "You do not have security permissions to complete this
operation. Contact your fax administrator for more information".
Now, I reboot the windows 2008 R2 server and fax services work again inbound and outbound, and I can reconnect the Windows 7 Fax client that I previously removed. UAC is turned off, Domain Admins full control to Fax server permission, and domain users
have fax permissions.
This issue has happened over the last 3 weeks, I've uninstalled Fax roles, and reinstalled many times prior and followed the fax setup step by step on techarticles - like I stated, the fax services work then stop, and rebooting the server allows the faxing
to work again. This server does house Exchange 2010 SP3, but the only thing effected or having issues on this box is Fax services. Any suggestions to look?

Hi ITQ_Jhays,
Please go to Control Panel -> Printers and share the fax printer.
A similar discussion is for your reference:
I can't connect to fax server from client computers.
If there is anything else regarding this issue, please feel free to post back.

Does sysvol migration in windows 2008 R2 DC, requires any specific steps, if the AD Data are stored not in C drive of the server?

With one of our client, the windows 2008 R2 Active directory data are stored on D drive of the PDC (NTDS DATA, NTDS Logs and SYSVOL) and on the other 2 Dcs, they are on different drives too.
So my question when we do the sysvol migrations to DFS, do we have to add any specific command or script other than the usual migration commands?

Hi Zac Kurian,
As far as I know there don’t have issue when you migrate your SYSVOL which locate on others partition. If you worry about the DFSR health, you can enable the DFSR report then
monitor the DFSR health status, otherwise, please confirm you have installed the DFS known issue hotfix on your server.

Which account is used to failover to passive node of Windows 2008 R2 2-node cluster?

When I set up drive letter for shared drives in Windows 2008 R2 2-node cluster, I accidentally used a drive letter which has already mapped automatically due to the login I used.   After I run the cluster validation tests, all the drive letters
for shared drives are changed.   I fixed this issue by disconnecting the automatic mapped drive and reassigned all the drive letters.
However, I wonder whether CNO is used to perform the failover so such issue will not occur actually. Also, what happen if someone is logged on the passive node when the failover occur and any of the drive letters assigned for the shared drives
is already mapped due to that person's login.

Hi Sebastian,
Let me clarify my question. For example, there are clustered drives W:, M:, and L:.   Active Directory Group Policy has policy for some users to have mapped drive M:.
What will happen if failover occurs when one of the users having that policy is still logged on the passive node?
What will happen if failover occurs but that user has already logged off the passive node?
AKAIK, mapped drives are tied to the current logon user not for all users.
I don't know which account is actually used for the failover process. CNO, VNO, the domain user account used to create the windows cluster, or ?
Thanks.

Windows 2008- Account Lock not working and getting Domain Policy access denied

Hi
Windows 2008 Root Domain we tried to Edit the policy and we were getting the error "Access Denied on the Domain Policy template" we resolved by giving Write permission for authenticated user on the Template. later we applied account lock out policy.
but it is not applying and automatically reset to 0 in account lockout tool.
Error:"Access Denied:\\sysvol\Domain.com\policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\Windows NT\SecEdit\GPTmpl.inf.Make sure that you have the right permission to this object.

Hi,
The error message is Access Denied, so it should be a permission issue.
You mentioned that you tested the account lockout in isolated network, it was working fine without any problem, by which did you mean that you didn’t get the Access Denied error message, or account wasn’t lockout out?
If you are facing account lockout problem, here are some troubleshooting articles below for you:

SCVMM 2008 R2 - "The SQL Server service account does not have permission to access Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)."

I know this question has been asked before, but never for R2, that I can tell, and the posted fixes aren't working. I have just installed SCVMM 2008 R2 on a Windows Server 2008 R2 server, using a remote SQL 2008 SP1 database. When I attempt to connect to SCVMM, I get the following error:
"The SQL Server service account does not have permission to access Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS).
Ensure that the SQL Server service is running under a domain account or a computer account that has permission to access AD DS. For more information, see "Some applications and APIs require access to authorization information on account objects" in the Microsoft Knowledge Base at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=121054.
ID: 2607"
What I've seen online is that this is usually becuase the domain account SCVMM is running as does not have the proper permissions on the SQL database. Here's what I've confirmed:
1) My SCVMM service account is a local admin on the SCVMM server
2) My SCVMM service account is a dbowner on the SCVMM database in SQL
3) My SQL service account is a dbowner on the SCVMM database in SQL
4) My SQL service account is a domain user (even made it a domain admin, just in case, and it still "doesn't have access to AD DS," which is obviously untrue)
5) Neither service account is locked out
Has anyone run in to this? It says in Technet that remote SQL 2008 is supported, as long as the SQL management studio is installed to the SCVMM server, and I installed and patched before I began the SCVMM installation. I just don't know what else to try - I have no errors in event logs, no issues during the installation itself...
Andrew Topp

That answer was very unhelpful fr33m4n. The individual mentions that they've received the error that points to the KB article. I currently receive the same error -- there seems to be no resolution. I've run the Microsoft VBS script to add TAUG to the WAAG
as suggested by 331951, and that made absolutely no difference.
1) My SCVMM service account is a local admin on the SCVMM server
2) My SCVMM service account is a dbowner on the SCVMM database in SQL
3) My SQL service account is a dbowner on the SCVMM database in SQL
4) My SQL service account is a domain user (even made it a domain admin, just in case, and it still
"doesn't have access to AD DS," which is obviously untrue)
The user is also a member of WAAG, the machines have delegated authority to each other. Is there any other solution?

Script stops automatically on windows server 2008, IE8 is not launched or it doesn't navigate

QTP 11.0 - Script stops automatically on windows server 2008, IE8 and works fine on other standalone machines having Windows 7. Pls advise. It is very weird, it suddenly stops launching IE8. Sometimes it launches IE8 but des not navigate from one step to another. I have scheduled it using a vbscript though windows scheduler. I tired to uninstall QTP, then reinstall, it works fine for first run but stops again.

To Wendy23,
Just for clarity, the Windows Server 2008 OS that I ran ROBOCOPY and XCOPY on was the non-R2 version. Microsoft might have fixed this issue in R2.
You'll probably need to logon as local Administrator or use an account belonging to the local Administrators group.
Also, open the Command Prompt using "Run as Administrator" (right-click on Command Prompt), then run the XCOPY and ROBOCOPY commands from within this prompt.
To answer G.Write, the storage is local hard disks.
Thanks, was a long time ago, I was having a problem with robocopy not copying permissions on a SAN, and was wondering if the SAN was the problem, but your method worked fine for me, thanks.

Active directory account lockout issue

I have 1 main AD server which is on windows 2003 R2 and all users are authenticated from this server and second ADC i.e backup ADC which is on windows 2003 R2, we have 3rd ADC on windows 2008 R2 which is created for Exchange 2010 on windows
2008R2,
Users are getting Account lock out issue randomly.
Can any one help on this.

Hi,
You can start with the below threads to see if you have prepared to determine lockouts sources.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773155(v=ws.10).aspx
http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2012/12/27/use-powershell-to-find-the-location-of-a-locked-out-user.aspx
Use Lokoutstatus from Altools (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=18465) then check the source DC where lockouts are being reported. Use the event viewer on
that DC and look for "failure audits" for that particular user acocunt or during that time frame reported on lockoutstatus. Use the event description to find the source workstations/server where the lockout is coming from and verify that server for
any (disconnect RDP sessions, credentials manager, services running with domain accounts,applications,etc).
Hope this helps.

Calin

10g Express Edition on Windows 2008 Enterprise R2 x64 with Active Directory

I have successfully installed the 10g Express Edition on Windows 2008 Ent. r2 x64 with Microsoft Active Directory Domain Controller but i could not be able to run http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
Although i have run the http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex on my another Windows 2008 R2 x64 ant WITHOUT Active Directory Domain Controller Role.
i think its related with AD Domain server role of my server, because i run that on same config and operation without Active Directory Domain Controller role.
Can anyone help about this issue?
thanks in advance

I have experienced the same problem - running 10g Express on a Win 2008 (32-bit). When not being a Domain controller, the install was fine. When installing after the server had been given the Domain Controller role (+the required DNS), it failed. NO FIREWALLS are involved on the server. Seems like Oracle Express has problems being installed in this kind of environment - independent of x32 or x64 bit OS.
