Cannot Bind Leopard Server to Windows Active Directory

Trying to Bind new Leopard Server but keep getting an Unknown error. it there an issue with the new Server OS?
This is the error

Okay, I have now managed to setup up the server. I did this by creating a Open Directory Master and then binding that to our Active Directory. I have setup Active Directory and LDAP binding on the client Macs.
I then added a user from AD into Workgroup Manager and applied a few preferences. They worked brilliantly. However, the computer Workgroup Manager preferences are not working at all! Is there a different way to add computers to Workgroup Manager (I added them by using the + sign and dragging them in from AD) and is there a way to automatically add a computer once it's joined to the domain, like it goes in to AD?

Error when joining a leopard server to an active directory

Hi all,
I'd like to add my mac os x server to an active directory. If I fill the "Active Directory Domain" with ip address, "Unable to add the domain, there was no response from the ip,please check that the address you entered is correct", if I fill with domain name, "Unable to add domain, An unexpected error of type -14987 (eUndefinedError) occurred.

Directory Security Strange Permissions Issues (Windows Server 2003 running Active Directory)

I have a user that all of a sudden was not able to open 70% of her files located on a file server, Windows Server 2003 running Active Directory, from her laptop. The same user can access all the same files from a different machine, logging on with the same
credentials. Just looking for a point in the right direction and a possible theory as what could cause this problem, an why all of a sudden. I did go back through the logs but nothing sticks out. For the most part the logs on the server and the laptop are
pretty clean.
Both machines are Latitude E5420s running Windows 7 Enterprise Service Pack 1. Both machines are 64bit and connect to the network via hard-wire, not wireless.
Thanks in advanced.

I would recommend proceeding that way:
Check that your DCs are in a healthy state and AD replication is fine: It might be that the user is member of security groups and the membership is not getting replicated properly which can cause this random behavior. You can use
dcdiag and repadmin for checks and you can refer to my recommendations here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/18513.active-directory-replication-issues-basic-troubleshooting-steps-single-ad-domain-in-a-single-ad-forest.aspx
Make sure that the file server is reachable from the user client computer. Start with
ping and nslookup. Also, you need to make sure that the traffic between the client and the server is not blocked or filtered. You might want to temporary disable security software for testing

Windows Server 2008 R2 - Active Directory Replication over DynDNS

Hello,
I have one server that Windows Server 2008 R2 - Active Directory / DNS
Now some users shifted to new office with the server
Some users still in the original place that now don't have ADDS/DNS
i want to install one replication server in the original place to retrieve AD/DNS form new office via DynDNS
is that possible of not?
Best regards,

Badr, I don't think you want AD replication occurring over the internet - even if that was possible the server would need access to all the SRV records, a records, And all the ports required for communication - See here for an exhaustive list
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/584.active-directory-replication-over-firewalls.aspx - I don't think I have to tell you how bad opening all these ports to the internet would be.
You may want to look at Setting up a vpn or DirectAccess from the original site to the new site. This will give you more security and generally won't cost to much.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/network/dd420463.aspx
Another thing that may work for you would be if you setup remote desktop services in the new location and had the original location remote into via a gateway server -
http://blogs.technet.com/b/windowsserver/archive/2012/05/09/windows-server-2012-remote-desktop-services-rds.aspx as a starting point. With RDS your users would be able to access the new location from anywhere, although there would be upfront costs associated,
licensing and server being part of them - I don't recommend turning your domain controller into an RDS server.These are just some ideas to help you with your issue

Windows Server 2008 R2-Active Directory

Hi ,
I cloned a machine using VMware VSphere 5.1 and did not use sysprep during cloning. The original source machine disappeared from Windows Active Directory. Is there anyway to get the object back ? I also deleted the cloned Virtual machine .
Thanks in advance.

Can't connect to Small Business Server 2003 via Active Directory

I have done lots of searching, both in these forums and the wider internet, and cannot find a solution to my specific problem.
I am trying to connect my G5 (10.3.9) to a Windows network. We have a Microsoft Small Business Server 2003 with Active Directory. The PCs have no problem using this, and I can connect to shares setup on the server via AFP.
But I am having problems when I try to configure the AD plug-in in Directory Access on the Mac. When I click 'Bind', I enter the Server's Administrator username & password and when I click 'OK', it gets to Step 3 of 5 "Verifying Credentials". It ticks away at this step for about 30 seconds, then comes up with error message saying "Invalid user name and password combination."
I have tried other users with admin privileges, but they don't work either. I know the usernames and passwords aren't invalid, because I created them. I have tried fiddling around with other settings in the AD setup, but nothing gets any further.
Without any other 3rd party software (that's my final option), is there something I need to check/change, either on the Mac or the server, to make this Mac to authenticate via AD? Please help!

Hi Andbrowny, thanks for your response.
Your advice didn't really help my Active Directory problem (AD doesn't require SMB does it?), but it gave me some progress on my SMB problem. I can connect via AFP, but previously when I tried to connect via SMB, it kept coming up with the error "Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not correct".
Now, after changing the policies on the server, I get an error -43 message saying "The operation could not be completed because one or more required items cannot be found."
So now I have two problems! SMB is not finding something it needs, and Active Directory is not "verifying credentials".
Actually, I have three problems: When I am connected via AFP, filenames over 31 characters long are truncated on the server, and I can't copy long filenames onto the server without renaming them. I have read that SMB would fix this to a degree (256 characters for the complete file path), but is there anything (a protocol or software) that allows long filenames to be read/written with ease?
Side note: The server is not 100% configured, the bloke installing it still has some work to do, but Active Directory works for all the XP machines, and I can connect to each XP workstation with SMB.

How to create mailboxes under mac os x 10.6.4 either using ldapv3 or windows active directory?

hi,
i'm working on the mail server of our company. the plan is to implement the built in mail server feature of mac mini OS X 10.6.4 using either ldapv3 or preferably our existing window active directory users.
i was able to set the open directory and can view the user accounts from AD. my problem is i do not have any clear documentation or manual on how to create mailboxes using either AD accounts or MAC LDAPv3. i already checked the manual of mac os x mail service administration and have found none pertaining to this case.
i would really appreciate if someone can give me reference on how to do this. as of now im quite desperate because i have a deadline for this project.
thank you in advance for your help.

You said, "A 2014 iMac can't run either Snow Leopard or Lion." I know that. What I want to know is how I can install Lion or Snow Leopard on a peripheral hard drive, NOT on my iMac.

SAP User Authentication via Windows Active Directory

The non-profit company I work for as an SAP Security Admin has been using SAP since 1999. We are currently running ECC 6.0, BI 7.0, and CRM 7.0. With fewer than 300 SAP users, we have not implemented CUA, so each of our multiple clients in these systems is managed independently.
The company recently licensed and implemented some non-SAP software to be used by all of our employees (~1200) in keeping track of & catagorizing their work time; a very handy feature of this software is that it depends upon Windows Active Directory for user authentication. Therefore, each employee logs into this time-keeping package by entering his/her standard PC userID & password. If you can log onto your PC, you can log into the time-keeping software.
That got me thinking & researching, because our SAP users - especially those who have access to three or more SAP clients - must maintain their passwords independently in each SAP client that they hope to access in the future. I'm certainly not the first person who has thought of how nice it would be to permit SAP users to log into all SAP clients across the landscape in which they have defined userIDs, using the same password that they are using to log into their PCs (i.e., the password that is stored & maintained in Windows Active Directory). My quest has led me to find presentations on this topic that typically involve modules we aren't using & very complicated configurations that we really lack the time & resources to employ; or, to third-party solution providers who claim to be certified SAP partners who would love to sell us more software to provide this convenience, usually irelated to single sign-on, LDAP, etc. The lowest pricing tier for such software usually would cover many times the number of SAP users we have to serve here - and it feels like trying to push in a tack using a sledgehammer. It is true that we have not used the same userID for our PCs that we have defined in SAP, so there would need to be some way to translate from one to the other, but our PC password rules are consistent with those we have configured in SAP clients, so it seems to me it should be very simple. Can anyone lead me to a more straightforward solution? If not, can you articulate why this has to be so complicated using SAP software when it seems so simple using relatively inexpensive timekeeping sotware?

Once installed, yes. This is all you need to maintain when users are added. You can even use LDAP if you like to sync all user info between SAP and MS AD domain, but this cannot sync the password, so using SNC authentication instead of using SAP passwords is ideal.

Yes, that is correct. The mapping is maintained using standard SAP user management, such as su01. The user in AD domain might have long account name, e.g. "firstname.verylonglastname" which is too big for use as a SAP username so you can map this long AD account name onto a SAP user called FIRSTLAST in one or more SAP clients.

Trying to login to Windows active directory at work

I take my iMac back and forth between home and work. We have multiple types of servers which I can log into. But I'm unable to login to the Windows Active Directory. Note that I can login with the windows desktop. Just not my iMac which I strongly prefer to use.
I went into \applications\utilities\directory access and put in the directory domain (as shown in the windows computer) and typed in what I want it to see as my computer name and then clicked on Bind.
A new window opens (Network Administration Required) screen asking for my Username, password, and Computer OU: and I put them in as they show on my windows computer and hit enter.
A new window comes up showing "Invalid domain" An invalid Domain and Forest combination was specified. You should enter a fully qualified DNS name for the domain and forest (e.g., ads.company.com).
Tech support says they don't support anything other than Windows XP and don't look at all sorry about it. Any idea how I can find out the information I need from my Windows computer and typing things in at the command prompt?
Thanks in advance.

Note that are computers come preconfigured and already connecting to our Windows server. So users don't enter any information other than user-name and password to get in.
So they have to create a computer name (like creating a user) on the server and then tell me what it is and I put the same info in my computer to login. Hmmm. Now the question is whether they will do that for me or not.
Thank you.

How can I authenticate a User In Windows Active Directory?

I need to authenticate a user in Windows Active Directory, but I found use the code below will return true if the user name and password are both correct and false if one of them is wrong. But when I input a user name which is not exist in Active Driectory with a blank password, it will also return true. What shall I do? Ask every user must input a password withnot blank?
Please give me some help to solve this problem. Thanks a lot.
Code:
private Context ctx = null;
Hashtable env = new Hashtable ();
boolean isValid = false;
try {
this.setEnvironmentProperties();
String domainName = AuthenticateResources.getString("mydomain.com");
//set the name of domain with the user name
String fullName = name + "@" + domainName;
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"ldap://mydomain:389");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION,"simple");
//set user related information
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, fullName);
//set user password
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, password);
//validate user
ctx = new InitialDirContext(env);
isValid = true;
}catch (AuthenticationException ex){
isValid = false;
catch (NamingException ex) {
throw ex;
}finally{
this.freeContext();
return isValid;

This is usually a problem if Anonymous Binding is enabled. I have faced this in other Directory Servers, but I am not familiar with Active Directory.
I think by default Active Directory disables Anonymous Binding, but you may want to check.

Oracle Linux and Windows Active Directory

I am looking for a good article on joining an Oracle Linux server to a Windows Active directory domain.
We are primarily a Windows shop but need to bring up a couple of Oracle Linux servers (VM Server and VM Manager). I would like to use the existing Windows domain controller for user authentication.

I don't have experience in joining a Linux system with Windows AD, and it generally does not sound like the best idea to me, but since Oracle Enterprise Linux is a clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the solution you are looking for could be called Winbind.
Perhaps the following links are useful:

X-Serve not finding active directory

My X-Serve has begun to behave somewhat peculiarly.
I recently had SNow Leopard installed, and it had been working fine. I was deploying using deploy studio, it was all working fine. Then one day suddenly it just seems not to be able to find the active directory.
The AD is the PC network, I also can't connect to the internet. (And I've checked the proxies)
Also Server Admin has started throwing up errors saying it can't find the X-Serve... I'm a little confused as to why it can't find itself. Also the workstations now can't find the deploy studio server.
I can see the X-Serve remotely and operate it.
Any clues?
I've rebooted, I've fixed preferences, I'd update, but I can't get on the internet.

Just speaking to the loss of AD, If you are running Deep Freeze you may need to run a command that sets passinterval to 0.

Windows active directory logs

Hi,
We are using Windows active directory to manage our users. Another company has configured the same for us.
Currently we don't have permissions to create a new user. They have given us one account and by using that account, we are able to create new groups in AD, add users to the groups, etc. We would like to get the logs for each user removal or addition to the
AD groups. How do we enable the same. We would like to know who and when each user is getting added to the AD groups. Please help us in this.

Hi Kewpin,
To enable the complete details on user account account changes including group membership, you need enable the following audit settings,
1. Open GPMC console, click Start --> Administrative Tools --> Group Policy Management.
2. Right click the Default Domain Controllers Policy, and then click Edit.
3. Navigate to Audit Policy node, “Computer Configuration/ Policies/ Windows Settings/ Security Settings/ Local Policies/ Audit Policy”.
4. Now enable the Success auditing for - Audit Account Management and Audit Directory Service Access.
5. Execute the command “GPUPDATE /FORCE” in the Domain Controller to force apply the GPO settings.
For Windows Server 2008 R2 and later versions, additional configuration is required in “Advanced Audit Policy Configuration” section in Default Domain Controller Policy.
For additional auditing configuration of,
1. AD Changes
Go to the node DS Access (Computer Configuration/Policies/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Advanced Audit Policy Configuration/Audit Policies/DS Access.)
Enable Success auditing for the following settings
- Audit Directory Service Changes
2. Account Management
Go to the node Account Management (Computer Configuration/Policies/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Advanced Audit Policy Configuration/Audit Policies/Account Management.)
Enable Success auditing for the following settings
- Audit User Account Management
- Audit Security Group Management
- Audit Distribution Group Management
Once you have enabled the above audit settings, you can set an auditing SACL for the AD object.
Checkout the below screenshot for setting the auditing SACL,
Checkout the below link on Security Event id list for auditing AD changes,
