Authentication, login trouble.

Hello,
Part my work's domain set up is not behaving normally. This anomaly was noticed on March 11th. My co-worker connects to the network share daily from her Mac via smb:// , but starting the 11th she couldn't anymore. It's similarly true with my other coworkers
who use Mac, and also those that use Windows that are added to the domain. We use various version of OSX (10.7 - 10.10) and Windows 7, 8.
The servers of interest:
Server A: physical machine. Host the network share. Host virtual machines. Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1.
Server B: virtual machine on server A. Domain Controller, and primary DNS. Windows Server 2003 SP2
Server C: virtual machine on server A. DHCP, and secondary DNS. Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1.
Server D: physical machine. Has a network share that uses active directory authentication. Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1.
NAS: physical device. Synology DS415+. Connected to the domain.
I am the primary manager of these machines. I haven't done any configuration changes since the end of February, when I added a new user. These machines are patched up-to-date.
Another problem with Server A is RDP'ing to it. I usually can log in using domain admin account, or .\Administrator (local account), but now have to use SERVER_A\Administrator.
Connecting to the NAS also unable to authenticate against domain accounts; I have yet to find the error logs. I do not know when the NAS started having problem authenticating. The last time I used the NAS was at the end of February.
Interestingly, the network share on Server D works with AD authentication. Other aspects of the domain seems to be working fine.
I've been searching around the internet using these keywords: Event 4625, NULL SID,  An Error occured during Logon, 0xc000005e.
I haven't found a solution. My plan is to make a new server similar to Server D, and start a new network share. But the NAS seems unrecoverable.
Please advise. Thank you.
Event viewer's security log of Server A shows audit failure of this form when trying to connect to the network share:
- <System>

  • My MacBook Pro Retina's Bluetooth chipset unknown/odd login message on the login screen states Login Window Authentication Login window Name edit text has keyboard focus. In addition, the login screen is not remembering me

    I have been experiencing several issues with my MacBook Pro Retina mid 2012. My MBPR is scheduled to go into the depot. However, I am wondering if anyone may be able to shed light on a few issues as this is the third "official" time my MBPR is going back for service ("one depot" trip; "one authorized" dealer; several in-store visits).
    My Bluetooth is stating that the Bluetooth Chipset is Unknown (0). I also have had Bluetooth Preferences mysteriously change on me. In addition, while Bluetooth is off there are two serial modems turning on. I have turned them off, but they continue to pop up.
    In addition, when I log in, my MBPR is not remembering me and my login name is not appearing on the slate-gray screen. The name and password are blank and the following message appears in the lower left hand corner. "login window authentication login window Name edit text has keyboard focus."  As a side note, I am the only user. The login issue is a recent occurrence as we just totally wiped it again via a Command + R, and I don't believe I have an accessibility setting set to anything that would cause this, but wanted to check.
    Should I be concerned here? Has anyone else had issues like this? I don't want to worry if I don't have to. I have had so many issues over the course of nine months. 5-6 wipes. Airport card replaced and I am about to pull my hair out if my MBPR doesn't come back worldly like clock work this time. I just can't send my days trying to get a $2300 product to work for me any longer. No idea what is wrong with it, but it is driving me insane. Cross your fingers for me and any guidance you have or thoughts would be welcomed. Thank you. EMM

    There are a ton of other warnings. Before I go through this again, can someone tell me if this is normal (all of it -- above too); or if these are symptoms is a keystroke logger or hardware issues? 
    I ask because originally, when my computer went in for diagnostics (more than once), Apple stated the hardware was fine (other than Airport Card -- finally). However, if I've done 5-6 total wipes; created new users; do not have sharing set-up; have not played around in Terminal; and am up-to-date with versions -- and various issues KEEP COMING BACK -- I am left wondering if a keystroke logger would be possible here?!? I thought maybe a faulty logic board, but why would diagnostics be okay, then? Not trying to be hyperbole, just desperate.
    Please help me rule keystroke logger out or at least, tell me so I know, so I can take appropriate action. If you think it could be the logic board with symptoms above, that would be a great too.
    All I want to do is use the computer as intended, but I can't seem to get a real answer, so after nine months -- I am turning to the communities to see if anyone -- anyone at all -- can help. The last thing I can do is have the MBPR come back from the depot and the same thing occur. Any guidance or advice would be so gratefully appreciated.

  • NAC-OOB L2- Authentication Login page dosn't appear!

    Hi All,
    We have 2 NAC managers and 2 NAC servers. We have a failover solution. Our deployment is OOB Layer 2 Central Virtual Gateway. We have successfully added NAS into NAM and we did the required configuration in NAM like configuring VLAN mapping (from the untrusted vlan 913 to the trusted vlan 910), adding managed subnet, switch profile, port profile, adding switches (cisco 3560) to NAM, configuring user roles, local users and also user login page.
    Then we have tested it by connecting PC to the controlled port on the switch.
    The configuration of the controlled port was on VLAN 910 and after connecting the PC, it's converted to VLAN 913 then we successfully got an IP from the dhcp which is configured on the switch but the authentication login page didn't appear! and also, when we disconnect the PC from that port, the configuration isn't converted from vlan 913 to vlan 910 so we have to change it manually everytime to do our tests.
    What should we do to let the login page appear and also automatically let NAM change the port configuration after disconnecting the PC?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Is there any way to add SQL Server 2008 R2 "SQL Authentication" logins to SQL Server Integration Services

    Hi Experts, 
    We have a way to add the Windows Authentication-logins /OS users  in SSIS
    Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer -> DCOM Config -> MSDTSServer
    Right click on MSDTSServer
    Click properties
    Click on the Security tab
    Select Customize and add the users/groups to the Launch/Activation and Access tabs accordingly
    Add the user to the local Distributed COM Users group
    Restart the SSIS service
    +++But do we have a way to add SQL Server Authetication logins to SSIS, Please clarify me 
    Prem Gokull

    Hi PREM,
    If I understand correctly, you want to use SQL Server Authentication log to SQL Server Integration Services.
    Based on my research, only Microsoft Windows Authentication is available for SSIS. So we cannot use SQL Server Authentication log to SQL Server Integration Services. Besides, we can only add OS users in the DCOM Config permission area.
    Reference:
    Connect to Server (Integration Services)

  • SSRS Windows Authentication Login

    Hi guys, I have been battling with this issue for the past 2 days. 
    I have deployed my ssrs reports to my test server. 
    Anytime I try to  access the report manager or reportserver url from another client pc, I am being prompted with a Windows Security Login. 
    My client user isn't an part of the domain, but I want to disable that Windows Security prompt
    Steps I have taken
    1. I changed the rsreportserver config authentication type to <RSWindowsNTLM> 
    2. I have added an execution account(Local administrator) in the Report Configuration Manager
    3. I have added the Credentials Stored Securely on the report server settings.
    After doing all this, I am still prompted with the Windows Security.
    Please What Do u thing I am missing here?
    Guys I am counting on you.
    Thanks. 

    Hi earlgood77,
    As the error message said, the issue occurs because the remote SMTP server requires authentication, however, the report server is configured to use Anonymous authentication. To address this issue, we can create a virtual SMTP server on the report
    server computer which has IIS and IIS Manager installed, and relay mail to the desired SMTP server.

  • Windows Authentication login cannot access backup files stored in Users\[User] folder.

    I am currently logged in to my database engine using SSMS and Windows Authentication; specifically, I am logged in with Joe-PC\Joe, where Joe-PC is the domain name of the machine hosting the database, and Joe is the user that created the database. 
    If it matters, I am running all of this locally from Joe-PC.
    I have a .bak backup file stored in my C:\Users\Joe\Desktop folder that I am trying to restore.  However, I get an error saying 'Either the location does not exist, or the current login account does not have access to it.'  I am certain the location
    exists, as I am looking at it right now, and I can't see why Joe-PC\Joe wouldn't have access to it's own user folder. 
    I am absolutely baffled as to why this is behaving this way.  I am fully aware that I can work around the issue, but I'd like to know why this isn't working as it seems like it should.  Does the Windows Authentication that SQL Server uses not have
    the permissions that the account would normally have?  Is the Windows Authentication user even the same thing as the user that logs into Windows?  What else could be going on that I don't understand?

    Keith
    Thanks for your answer.  My user account is one of two administrator accounts on this computer (the other is only set up for consistency sake, and has probably only been logged into a total of 5 times; all of our computers have the account though, so
    I thought I should put it on here as well).  The issue isn't that my account doesn't have restore permissions, just that SSMS can't access the user folder when logged in using Windows Authentication.  Another issue that I assume is related results
    in a lack of permissions on backup files until I manually set permissions to 'Everyone' under the backup file's properties\security tab.  Also, not sure if it matters, the backup is taken from a customer's computer running Win 7 Pro x86 while my computer
    is on Win 7 Ultimate x64.
    Not sure if this helps pinpoint the issue, but my current workaround is as follows:
    Copy the .bak file to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.WSA\MSSQL\Backup (default backup folder)
    Right-click the .bak file and go to the properties toolbox.  Select the Security Tab, give full permission to 'Everyone'.
    In SSMS, select 'Restore Database' after right-clicking on 'Databases' in left-hand tree.
    Give the DB a name, restore from device, select my file.
    This method hasn't failed me yet, but any deviation (other than setting permissions before or after moving) causes me to get access errors when I try to restore.  Fortunately, this isn't a production database engine, just a testing environment, but
    I'd like to get an idea of what's going on, because I know it's only a matter of time before I or a customer runs into this issue.

  • Authentication login error

    Hi,
    I'm getting authentication error while logging in to SMC console. I have defined user under /var/opt/SUNWsymon/cfg/esusers but still can not login to console server. Has anyone encounter this error.
    TIA

    I'm getting authentication error while logging in to

    Can you login as another user, or is it broken for everybody? Any chance the Server entry is wrong when you tried to login: i.e. is the hostname correct and resolvable from where you launched the Console, and have you tried using the IP Address instead?

  • Oracle authentication login difference

    Dear all,
    I am new to this dba side, i had a doubt regarding ,
    1) if we issue */as sysdba* which password file it will authenticate.
    2)and if we issue * sys/password as sysdba* which password file it will authenticate.
    3)if we issue sqlplus /nolog which password file it will authenticate.
    please help me in this...
    Regards,
    vamsi.

    1) it will use OS authentication, no password file is used
    2) it will use the password file of the database, the name is database dependent and fixed
    3) /nolog means you don't get a login prompt.
    You still don't read documentation, do you? Why?

  • Imac 266- getting past login trouble

    OK so I found this Imac on the side of the road. To my surprise when I got it home it boots right up. It appears to be from a college and a sticker on it says login 9 Password 9.
    Silly me I believed the sticker and went ahead and bought a keyboard for it. Keyboard is brand new made for OS X. Anyway the password doesn't work so I'm still stuck at the login screen. My only option that doesn't require a password is to shut down.
    Since I don't have another mac or mac software I decided the easiest way to go is to download a copy of yellowdog Linux and go with that and keep my investment low. After all, I just want this thing for my kids to mess around with. Its a handy package. I attempted to boot to the YD CD by holding down the C key but no dice.
    The CD drive appears to be working as it sounds like it accesses the CD while booting but still boots to the HD. I looked up some of the boot commands and tried them to force it to boot from CD but no love. One site I visited posited that tray loading Imacs cannot boot from CDRs. This seems to be the case but I further could not get it to boot to anything other than the HD despite any of the keyboard boot commands I tried. I could get it to boot without extensions but that got me no further than the log in screen.
    I'm now assuming that that it cannot boot from a CD-R and went ahead and ordered an original 9.1 install disk from new world computing.
    Now between the keyboard ($30) and the OS ($40) I am now into this "free" machine for $70 and there are nicer ones available online for $100 shipped.
    OK enough babbling on to my questions:
    Is it possible that the new keyboard is not entirely compatible explaining why I can't seem to do much with boot commands?
    Can anyone confirm that tray loading Imacs cannot boot from CDRs? I'm really afraid that the OS9 disk is going to arrive just to find out that the problem was a faulty CDROM all along...
    I'm really inexperienced with macs- Is there something obvious I'm overlooking in trying to get this thing going?
    Thanks in advance for any tips/advice
    Imac 266   Mac OS 9.0.x  

    The disk arrived today and I was actually able to boot with the cd and delete some extensions/files so that I could boot directly into OS 8.x.
    Installation of 9 required a firmware update that went without a hitch. Now that I've gotten 9.1 in I'm having terrible trouble getting it to update to 9.21. Everytime I try it gives me an error 127.
    I looked up this error and it seems that initializing the disk with a fresh install should solve the problem but it doesnt. Disk Utility says the disk is good.
    This error comes when I try to install the north american English update. Is it possible the disk I have was international and this is causing the error? The only other thing I can think of is a bad ram chip - but I only get an error on this one update- everything els has been smooth. Any suggestions appreciated

  • Login Trouble

    HI,
    I am using XI. When i am trying to logon to Integration Repository, its saying "No Authoraization for this Action", i logged in SUPER USER which got all permissions i think.
    I logged in As other user to Integration Repository and tried to Import Software Component, then its saying "No Authoraization to Import the Object 'External Software Component 1.1'
    What might be the trouble.? Suggest me the solution.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Can you just see if you have followed the following teps while creating the user.
    This is a detailed step by step procedure for creating a user:
    - On your SAP Web AS host, create the user below with at least the following parameters (transaction SU01).
    <b>User</b> : XISUPER
    <b>Last name (Tab: Address)</b> : <your_name>, for example XI Super
    <b>Password / User Type (Tab: Logon Data)</b> : <init_password> / Dialog
    <b>
    Role (Tab: Role)</b> :
    AP_BC_AI_LANDSCAPE_DB_RFC
    SAP_SLD_ADMINISTRATOR SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR
    SAP_XI_CONFIGURATOR SAP_XI_CONTENT_ORGANIZER
    SAP_XI_DEVELOPER SAP_XI_MONITOR
    The SAP_XI* roles are composite roles
    - Save, and exit SU01
    - You must now log on to the Integration server host with the user XISUPER, to switch the initial password to a valid password.
    - You must restart the J2EE engine to transfer the user creation to the J2EE
    Also go through this link for more details,
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/uuid/95d7d490-0301-0010-ce93-c58f9a3cde0b
    If its been done exactly in the same manner as explained and if you are still finding the problem do let us know so that we can try finding where exactly the problem is.

  • Login troubles

    well installation went fine and i fallowed all instructions. Come time to login i used the name i gave durning installation which as far as i know just asked for a host name, no real user name. and the password i had to type in twice. At login it fails. Any ideas what i should use to login or how i set up a user name and password as i havent been able to log in.

    The installation process does not create a user, other than "root".
    Your hostname is the machine name, not a user.
    Log in as root, using the root password you provided during the installation.
    You will then be able to create as many additional users as you wish.
    Here are a few links you can review:

    Your question does not seem to have anything to do with zones.
    You picked the wrong forum.
    It may have been more on-topic for "general" or for "installation".
    More Edit:
    Whoops! I see you also posted the same question to the Solaris-on-x86 forum.
    That's appropriate.
    In the future, don't cross-post.
    That splatters any responses all over the place.
    Thus it's bad forum manners.

  • Automatic Login Trouble and Short Name Trouble

    Hello everyone,
    I just got a fresh install of Leopard going on my Macbook (wiped the hard drive during installation instead of just upgrading the OS), but I'm running into a brick wall (two of them, actually).
    First off, for some reason, my Macbook refuses to automatically login. I know this is a good thing in terms of security, but I would really like it to login automatically to save time.
    I also made an error in spelling for my computer's home short name, so it is now sitting here with a capitalization problem. I tried to to change the name through Advanced Options in the Accounts section of the System Preferences, but for some reason, the capitalization won't change. I know that's a pretty minor problem, but I'd still like to fix it.
    Any help that could be sent my way would be deeply appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Arcturus

    If the short name is a problem, reinstall. Changing this name is a nightmare, usually.

    This will help if you want to try it, but it might fail, or screw things up.
    Trashing "com.apple.loginwindow.plist", you may cure the login problem. It's in your User/Library/Preference folder.
    Did you Migrate anything? If yes, re-migrate from your backup (You have one, right?).
