Auto enrollment issue - in AD user object certificate is missing

In our environment , we are publishing User certificate and SMIME certificate through auto enrollment, both are been pushed through same Group policy. We identified that few of the user  (around 200+ users) AD object  is not having SMIME certificate
but user certificate is available . In the Issuing CA and users local store we can able to find the certificate . We revoked 2 or 3 user certificate and when the user next logging in , the certificate has been successfully generated, we dont know what is causing
the issue. Please help on this.
We have checked the group policy its applying properly.
We have checked few of the user machine and found that the error Eventid # 6 has been generated every 8 hours once. (Automatic server enrollment  failed. the specified server can not perform the requested operation)
The working users and affected users all are part of same OU.

Dear All,
Thanks for your inputs. We found solution on this. we assume issue with attribute modification conflicts 
We are having two different issuing CA in our environment and both are in same site, in the site is having 4 domain controller. 
- We ran the network monitor in both the Issuing CA's and found the communication between Issuing CA and domain controllers for each user certificate  (success and failure also)
- we can able to see there is difference between both the certificate generation is less than 8 seconds
- The first (SMIME) certificate has been published in the AD object through Domain controller A and second certificate is reaching Domain controller B for publish the second (USER) certificate in few seconds.
- When replication is happening between Domain controller A and Domain controller B, the highest version value is winning
- We ran the command repadmin /showobjmeta "users distinguish name" for success user and failure user
- found success users certificate version is 2 and failure user certificate version is 1.
Solution: We are planning to make single Issuing CA for both certificate enrollment.
Not sure what are the impacts on this

  • Expired AD User Object certificate

    We have an expired certificate under Active Directory User Object > Certificates.
    Can someone please tell me to renew or re-create this certificate?

    Hi,
    We cannot renew expired certificate, you can request a new certificate instead.
    If you are using enterprise CA, you can refer to this article below to request a new certificate:

  • Domain Controller Auto-Enrollment Issue

    I recently noticed one of our domain controllers is not auto enrolling its Domain Controller certificate with our AD CS server. 
    We have 2 DC's and one auto-enrolls just fine and the other one doesn't. The one that auto-enrolls fine is a Server 2008 R2 domain controller and the one that doesn't is a Server 2012 R2 domain controller (the schema has been updated to accommodate this
    domain controller). The CA is on the Server 2008 R2 DC (I noticed this issue as I am planning on migrating off the CA from the DC to its own dedicated DC). 
    I see three errors in the event log:
    Event ID 6: Automatic certificate enrollment for local system failed (0x800706ba) The RPC server is unavailable.
    Event ID 13: Certificate enrollment for Local system failed to enroll for a DomainController certificate with request ID N/A from DC
    FQDN\CA Name (The RPC server is unavailable. 0x800706ba (WIN32: 1722 RPC_S_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE)).
    Event ID 82: Certificate enrollment for Local system failed in authentication to all urls for enrollment server associated with policy id: {61B8511A-9BFE-46A8-90D5-FB1709DADB2D} (The RPC server is unavailable. 0x800706ba (WIN32: 1722 RPC_S_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE)).
    Failed to enroll for template: DomainController
    In a packet capture, I am seeing this error: Expert Info (Note/Response): Fault: nca_s_fault_access_denied
    I did notice the "Certificate Service DCOM Access" group had no members, so I added the Authenticated Users group into it (I have a newly stood up development domain and notice Authenticated Users was in this group by default). Still not having
    any success. I tried stopping the CA service and starting it up after this group change and had no success either. I haven't rebooted any of the servers yet...didn't think I needed too. 
    I tried the "certutil -config - -ping" command and it found the proper CA and once I selected it, I was able to connect to the CA just fine and says its alive. 
    Not to sure where to look at from here as I am out of ideas. 

    Ok I got this working, but not sure what finally kicked it in.
    I followed this article first: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947237 After performing what that article mentions, I still had the same errors.  It only mentions Vista, so didn't think it applied. Not entirely sure what the certutil
    -setreg SetupStatus -SETUP_DCOM_SECURITY_UPDATED_FLAG does. I think it added permissions to my DCOM COM Security for Access and Launch/Activation permissions? 
    Initially testing this, it failed with the same errors. After a few minutes, I tried again to see if the packet capture was showing the same authentication error, and it finally succeeded. 

  • Anyconnect SCEP Auto-enrollment Issue

    Hello Everyone,
    I have been trying to configure cisco`s any connect client with SCEP Auto-enrollment with no success. I followed all the steps necessary to complete the configuration but still no success. What happens to me is, enrollment happens fine, certificate is downloaded according to what it should be but when I try to use it to authenticate and connect to my VPN it seems the certificate is not valid and not forwarded to the ASA, every time I reconnect the Anyconnect enrolls me to a new certificate, which means that if I repeat the process a 1000 times I`ll most likely have 1000 new certificates. Being trying for a while now and nothing seems to work with it. Can anyone tell me anything that could help me?
    I am using windows 2k12 with NDES module installed, the certificate template being used is a custom IPSEC Offline request template, the asa sends the enrollment request according to what it should be and the enrollment happens fine, the problem is that I cannot match the certificate for some reason.
    Anyone that can help me?

    Scep-proxy was not integrated into the ASA until 8.4
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/asa84/configuration/guide/access_certs.html#wp1318578
    If you want to do legacy scep, this should work.  Your Anyconnect version is ok, but we always suggest the latest in the 3.0/3.1 line for the most up-to-date bug fixes.

  • Linux NSS DB Issue with Personal User/Client Certificate Friendly Names.

    I have an issue with the NSSDB lib and my browsers in which client certificates I use for an application (Nessus Vulnerability Scanner) show up in the list with the same friendly name/nickname, making it very difficult to distinguish which certificate goes with which server.
    Each certificate is generated on a different server with a different hostname but the same username. Upon importing the certificate into my browser, or even the pk12util command, the first certificate will appear correctly. However, importing additional certificates will just reuse the nickname from the first certificate instead of the nickname I chose. I have tested many different scenarios, and it doesn't seem the problem is related at all to the content of the nickname, so I have no idea how to force it to work correctly. I've searched around and found some indications of "nickname conflicts" and things, but nothing that helps me resolve the issue. I'm not sure if it's a bug or if it's some weird condition I've encountered.

    Maybe try to ask on the mozilla.dev.tech.crypto news group.

  • Re-enrollment issue

    We are upgrading the clients to Windows 8.1 with SCCM 2012 and are experience a strange issue with users and computers certificates,
    the clients both consist of laptops, desktops and hybrids (Lenovo Tablet) and the only client that experiences this problems is the laptop.
    There active directory is running windows server 2003 as does the certificate authority with a two tier.
    When the client first deploys and goes through the task sequence they both get the certificates installed, user certificate and computer
    certificate.  However during and redeployment of the client were, I suspect, when an certificated already have been issued it can't reenroll once more, except when enforcing it with certutil –pulse in which the certificates gets installed.
    As the auto enrollment have worked fine with Windows XP clients, but also works with the desktops and hybrid I have no idée to fix this.
    I have looked through the certificate authority and controlled all the settings, but I don’t suspect the CA is the issue here since it can reenroll, just on other clients when they are redeployed.
    In the CA I can read this error in the event viewer; but the error doesn’t get any more specific.
    "The permissions on the certificate template do not allow the current user to enroll for this type of certificate. You do not
    have permission to request this type of certificate"
    Why this does only happened to laptops and not the desktops/hybrids? There is no difference between them either in AD or in CA, not
    in the task sequence either if someone interested in that, just different standard applications and drivers.
    Why does the command certutil -pulse work on the contrary to GPO?
     Is this issue even a problem that related to the certificate authority?

    I'm actually seeing the same issue here for my Windows 8.1 workstations. Until Windows 8 the autoenrollment policies have not been a problem. The client certificates are needed for the automatic client enrollment in System Center Configuration Manager. Until
    now I've checked if the group policies were applied well. Results of the get-certificateautoenrollmentpolicy are:
    PS C:\Users\administrator> Get-CertificateAutoEnrollmentPolicy -context machine -scope applied
    PolicyState                : Enabled
    EnableMyStoreManagement    : True
    EnableTemplateCheck        : True
    ExpirationPercentage       : 10
    StoreName                  : {MY}
    EnableBalloonNotifications : False
    So it looks like the policy is being applied.
    When rebooting or manually updating the policies with gpupdate no certificate is enrolled. When I use the certutil -pulse command however i receive a certificate without any problems. I've been testing with your suggestion to change the permissions
    on the template (giving authenticated users enroll permissions as well) but this doesn't change anything. 
    We're using a Server 2008 R2 CA
    Did you get any further with this?

  • Creating a security group for S/Mime cert auto-enrolment

    We currently have auto-enrolment rights for an Exchange User cert granted to Domain Users. In our environment this is generating more than 50,000 failed requests each week by service accounts which don't have an email address.
    I would like to create a security group of users with an email address, and grant enrolment rights on the CA to that group.
    I have tried the following script to create such a group, however it's way too slow to be of any use (ours is a large enterprise):
    add-module activedirectoryGet-ADGroup -filter {name -eq "SMime Users"} | ForEach-Object {dsget group -members $_.distinguishedname | dsmod group $_.distinguishedname -rmmbr}Get-ADUser -filter {emailaddress -like "*"} | ForEach-Object {Add-ADGroupMember "SMime Users" -Members $_.SamAccountName}
    Any ideas on a way to bulk add users with an email address to a group? Or another way to achieve the same result?

    Although this group is going to be used for certificate enrollment this
    really isn't the right forum for your question. You should repost to either
    an Active Directory forum or to one dedicated to scripting or Powershell.

  • SQL Connection Failed for SCCM 2012 R2 (Unable to load user-specified certificate)

    We've recently completed an upgrade from SCCM 2012 SP1 to 2012 R2 and have been running in the new environment for about a week. As of this morning, The consoles failed to connect to the CAS' and one of the Primary Site's database. The issue was resolved
    easily enough by addressing a certificate issue in SQL, but I'm left wondering if there's a correlation between the SP1-to-R2 upgrade that would cause the cert to fail. Anyone have experience with this?

    We got the same certificate related error events after a fresh install of SCCM 2012 R2 on a new server. It happened during the first reboot after SCCM was installed. In the Certificates mmc, I right-clicked on the certificate used by SQL and chose Manage
    Private Keys. Giving the service account that runs the MSSQLSERVER service read rights to the private key allowed SQL to start. However, after a day or so we rebooted the server again, and SQL wouldn't start. Something had removed the service account's read
    permission. Since the SCCM configuration wasn't that far along, we uninstalled SCCM. After giving the service account read rights again, and rebooting several times over a few days, and SQL started every time. We then installed SCCM 2012 R2 again, and checked
    the certificate's permissions before rebooting. The service account still had read permissions when the install completed, but as soon as the server was rebooted, it lost the permissions again.
    The Certificates mmc was then used to request a second computer certificate and then SQL was configured to use that new certificate via SQL Server Configuration Manager. After several days and a number of reboots the SQL services have started normally every
    time so the second certificate seems to have fixed the issue. I have kept the original certificate for fear that removing it will cause whatever part of SCCM 2012 R2 that modifies the original certificate to start removing permissions from the new certificate
    as well.

    Very much appreciate your taking time to send a response. As a new user I wasn't sure if anyone would bother. Allow me to add a little more to my first post. I fit in that niche between amateur and a person with clients. For over 10 years I have covered events for a non-profit agency capturing the look and feel of 20+ events per year and was given permission to purchase a few cameras over the year. My decision from the beginning was to use the Canon Rebel. Images were spot on and only once did I have an issue with one of them (after shooting outside events in 105 degree temps for 3 days).
    So, when I retired a year ago it was for me a pretty simple choice to get a Canon for myself - especially since at that time the 70D was on the cover of magazines and was very highly touted. I also did a lot of desktop publishing and photo editing which helped me realize I wanted the best sensor, sharpness, resolution and lens I could afford - the 70D. My post was actually a result of reading many online responses including your very informative replies about the 70D focusing issues. My biggest concern is that I will spend several hundred dollars and maybe, just maybe get back a camera which captures better focused images, but still not as sharp as the lower end Rebels I was using. I had hoped to purchase my first "L" lens and really get excited - not repair the most expensive camera I've bought to date.
    Thanks again and before it gets noted by someone...yes, I should have pushed this issue sooner and then at least the warranty would have covered the cost. An expensivve lesson learned. But I will have to add that at least one authorized Canon repair dealer told me they have had several folks feel like I did - that it was the photographer/me as a new user having the issue and not the camera. I now know it's my camera.
    Let me clarify that I don't own a 70D, so anything I say about it is from watching what others have said, mainly in this forum. But it is disconcerting to see so much complaint about a camera that's supposed to have an innovative focusing system. One is strongly tempted to suspect that they went overboard in trying to make the camera serve both still  photographers and videographers.
    That said, I'm not a great fan of the Rebel line, because they lack autofocus microadjustment and I have at least one otherwise excellent Canon lens that would be useless without it. (The 70D does have AFMA, a point in its favor.)
    As far as spending the $280 for the repair, I understand why it's a hard call. If I were in your shoes and were convinced that Canon understands the issue and would fix it correctly and permanently, I guess I'd go for it. If you don't think they do, but fell that you need something a cut above the Rebels, this may be a good time to buy a leftover or refurbished 7D. Even though I now have a 5D3, I still use my 7D's a fair amount and have been very happy with them. And the 7D2 has gotten such a favorable reception that's it's almost bound to make more 7D's available at a decent price.

  • Java.lang.OutOfMemoryError when trying to refresh all User objects

    Hello - I am running IdM version 7.1. Currently, I am attempting to refresh all user objects in the IdM database as directed in this article:
    http://docs.sun.com/source/820-2961/A_edit_configObjects.html
    In order to interface with the Database, I am using NetBeans on a Windows 2003 SP2 server with 3.5G of memory. Through NetBeans, I select the "Run lh command" option, provide the Configurator password when prompted, and then enter the command: "refreshType User". This is supposed to go through and "touch" each user record.
    The command runs for about 5 minutes and then bombs out with an error message:
    Exception in thread "Object Change Dispatcher" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
    I'm assuming that the JRE on the Windows server I'm running NetBeans on is running out of memory. My questions are 1) Is my assumption correct and 2) If so, is there a way to allocate more memory to the Java process which is running the lh command? This Windows server is running JRE 1.5
    Thanks in advance!

    I ran into same issue, ran the deferred task scanner instead.. Took a long time to run, but didn't hang.. :)
