Active Directory account lockout from OS X Server

I'm looking for assistance in tracking down why our 10.9 Mac server is constantly trying to use my Active Directory account. I changed my password a week ago and have been getting locked out constantly, and it appears the lockouts are coming from invalid password attempts from this OS X server. However, I don't know why the server would be using my AD credentials since I login to the Mac with an admin account and not my own. The only thing I can think of that may have used my AD credentials is connecting to a network file share at some point in the past, but I wouldn't have saved the credentials and it shouldn't be auto-mapping the share. The Mac itself is bound to Active Directory too.
I checked the Login Items and there is nothing there. I also reset the keychain to defaults and that didn't help. Does anyone else have any ideas for me to try to narrow down what the OS X server may be trying to use my credentials for?

So I'm going to guess I'm the only one that's ever had this issue...
Further digging with Wireshark shows that the OS X server is indeed issuing bind requests using my old AD account credentials multiple times per minute. I tried unbinding and rebinding, but that didn't help. The requests also start right away after a reboot, so whatever is using my credentials is doing so prior to any user logins on the server. Now I'm trying to track down what is actually issuing these requests on the server
In a span of a few seconds the machine issues three bind requests. The first is
bindRequest (1) "[email protected]" simple
Followed by
bindRequest (1) "<ROOT>" sasl
then
bindRequest (2) "<ROOT>" sasl
Anyone have an idea for me as to how to track down where my user account comes into play? It wasn't used to bind the machine to AD, I didn't see it anywhere in the keychain, and I only have a few apps running on the server, none of which use AD authentication or would request binding.

How do I create Local Network Home Folders for Users from an Active Directory binding?

My situation is this... I run an iMac lab at my school. I have a server set up to manage the network user accounts in the lab. Currently, I can sucessfully create Local Network Users and log in to them from any of the iMacs. My school has an Active Directory set up for all the students on campus. What I'd like to be able to do is configure the server to allow the students to use their user names and passwords from their school accounts to log in to the iMacs and have it automatically build a network user folder on the server for them to use during the lab.
So far, I have been able to configure access for the Active Directory accounts to use the services on the server, mainly File Sharing, but I cannot figure out how to allow them to log into a user account on the client's machines using their same Active Directory credentials. I have even attempted to allow the user accounts to create mobile accounts, but that's not working out either. Entering indivual network user accounts into the server for every student every semester will be a nightmare. I'm sure there's a way to do it automatically using the exisitng Active Directory structure.
The live server is running 10.8.5 Server still, but I've also got a clone running OS X Server in case it matters. Please help!

ok reinstalled everything dns seems to be working have done sudo changeip -checkhostname and it says that both names match but then i started open directory and can't seem to get Kerberos started, i've tried changing it to stand alone then back again but it does nothing. I'm wondering why this would happen? i've tried adding a kerberos record but it doesn't do it just does nothing so i don't know what i'm doing wrong. I wondered if it might be a problem with the two network cards and dns as on ethernet one it is getting the dns name xserve.xxxx.ac.uk (which matches what the college server wants to call us) but on ethernet 2 gets xserve-2.local because it tells me that it already exists on ethernet one and renames it to this. I need to set up NAT so have ethernet coming in on port one and out again on port two. I wonder if my dns is backwards as its got the 192. address the NAT uses but its linked to the ethernet port one dns maybe this is the problem. would this cause open directory not to start kerberos?

The DNS server has encountered a critical error from the Active Directory. Check that the Active Directory is functioning properly. The extended error debug information (which may be empty) is "". The event data contains the error.

got event ID 4015 and source DNS-Server-Service. please suggest how to fix this issue

Hi
first run "ipconfig /flushdns" and then "ipconfig /registerdns" finally restart dns service and check the situation,also you can check dns logs computer management ->Event viewer->Custom Views->Server roles->DNS.

How to populate a sharepoint 2010 list from the active directory. How to populate a sharepoint 2010 list with all sharepoint user profiles

How to populate a sharepoint 2010 from the active directory.
I want a list of all the computers in the active directory,
another one with all users.
I want also to populate a sharepoint 2010 list from the sharepoint user profiles.
Thanks
sz

While
the contacts list is usually filled out for contacts that are outside the company, there are times when you would use a contacts list to store internal and external resources. Wouldn’t it be nice if you didn’t have to re-type your internal contacts’
information that are already in the system? Now you can with a little InfoPath customization on the contacts list.
Here’s our plan:
Create the contacts list, and open in InfoPath
Create a data connection to the User Profile web service
Customize the form adding some text, a people picker and a button
Create InfoPath rules that will populate the contact fields from the user fields in the User Profile store
Let’s get going! Before we begin, make sure you have InfoPath 2010 installed locally on your computer. I also want to give credit Laura
Rogers and Darvish Shadravan’s book Using
Microsoft InfoPath 2010 with Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Step by Step. I know it looks like a lot of steps, but it’s easy once you get the hang of it.
So obviously we need a contacts list. If you don’t already have one, go to the SharePoint site where it will live, and create a contacts list.
From the list, click the List tab on the ribbon, then click Customize form:
So now we have our form open in InfoPath 2010. Let’s add our elements to the form.
Above all the fields, let’s add some text instructing users what to do with the the field we’re about to add (.e.g To enter an existing user’s information, choose the user below).
Insert a people picker control by clicking the Person/Group Picker control in the Controls section of the ribbon. This will add a column to the contacts list called group.
Below the people picker, insert a button control from the same section of the ribbon as above. With the button still highlighted, click the Control Tools|Properties tab on the ribbon.
Then in the Label box, change the text to something more appropriate to our task (e.g. Click here to load user data!).
You can drag the button control a little larger to account for the text.
We should end up with something like this:
Before we can populate the fields with user data, we need to create a connection to the User Profile Service.
Add a data connection to the User Profile Service
Click the Data tab on the ribbon, and click the option From Web Service, and From SOAP Web Service.
For the location, enter the URL of your SharePoint site in the following format – http://<site url>/_vti_bin/UserProfileService.asmx?WSDL. Click Next.
Note - for the URL, it can be any SharePoint site URL, not just to the site where your list is.
For the operation, choose GetUserProfileByName. Click Next.
Click Next on the next two screens.
On the final screen, uncheck the box for “Automatically retrieve data when form is opened”. This is because we are going to retrieve the data when the button is clicked, also for performance reasons.
Now we need to wire up the actions on our button to populate the fields with the information for the user in the people picker control.
Tell the form to read the user from the people picker control
Click the Home tab on the ribbon.
Click the button control we created, and under the Rules section of the ribbon, click Manage Rules. Notice the pane appear on the far right.
In the Rules pane, click New –> Action. Change the name to something like “Query and load user data”.
Leave the condition to default (none – rule runs when button is clicked).
Click the Add button next to “Run these actions:”, and choose “Set a field’s value”.
For Field, click the button on the right to load the select a field dialog. Click the Show advanced view on the bottom. At the top, click the drop down and choose the GetUserProfileByName
(Secondary) option. Expand myFields and queryFields to the last option and highlightAccountName. Click ok.
For Value, click the formula icon. On the formula screen, click the Insert Field or Group button. Again click the show advanced view link, but this time leave the data
connection as Main. Expand dataFields, then mySharePointListItem_RW. At the bottom you should see a folder called group (the people picker control we just added to the form). Expand this, then pc:Person,
and highlightAccountId. Click Ok twice to get back to the Rules pane.
If we didn’t do this and just queried the user profile service, it would load the data of the currently logged in user. So we need to tell the form what user to load the data for. We take the AccountID field from the people
picker control and inject into the AccountName query field of the User Profile Service data connection.
Load the user profile service information for the chosen user
Click the Add button next to “Run these actions:”, and choose Query for data.
In the popup, for Data connection, click the one we created earlier – GetUserProfileByName and clickOk.
We’re closing in on our goal. Let’s see our progress. We should see something like this:
Now that we have the user’s data read into the form, we can populate the fields in the contact form. The number of steps to complete will depend on how many fields you want to populate. We need to add an action step for
each field. I’ll show you one example and then you will just repeat the steps for the other fields. Let’s update the Job Title field.
Populate the contact form fields with existing user’s data
Click the Add button next to “Run these actions:”, and choose “Set a field’s value”.
For Field, click the button on the right to load the select a field dialog. Highlight the field Job Title.
For Value, click the formula icon. On the formula screen, click the Insert Field or Group button. Click the Show advanced view on the bottom. At the top, click the
drop down and choose theGetUserProfileByName (Secondary) option. Expand the fields all the way down until you see the Value field. Highlight it but don’t click ok, but click the Filter
Data button, then Add.
For the first dropdown that says Value, choose Select a field or group. The value field will be highlighted, but click the field Name field
under PropertyData. Click Ok.
In the blank field after “is equal to”, click in the box and choose Type text. Then type the text Title.
Click ok until you get back to the Manage Rules pane. The last previous screen will look like this.
We’re going to update common fields that are in the user’s profile, and likely from Active Directory. You can update fields like first and last name, company, mobile and work phone number, etc. For the other fields, the
steps are the same except the Field you choose to update from the form, and the very last step where you enter the text will change. Here’s what the rules look like when we’re done:
We’re all done, good work! You can preview the form and try it now. Click Ctrl+Shift+B to preview the form. Once you’re satisfied, you can publish the form back to the library. Click File –> Quick
Publish. Once it’s done, you will get confirmation:
Now open your form in SharePoint. From the contact list, click Add new item. Type in a name, and click the button and watch the magic happen!

'Public' Active Directory account no longer works w/Tiger?

We have approx 20 public Macs that all log onto our Windows 2003 server using the same Active Directory account - 'Public'
This has worked fine until Tiger - Now when we attempt to log onto one of our network drives with this account name I'm told by a pop-up window that the account is either disabled or I've put the password in incorrectly.
Can anyone confirm if 'Public' cannot be used by a user on Tiger? Is it exclusively for the OS?

Ran accross this in help file...
"Mac OS X 10.3 or later: "Invalid user name and password combination" Message When Using Active Directory
When binding a Mac OS X client computer to Active Directory, the account entered is not validated (resolved) at that time. It is used as entered. If entered incorrectly, you will see an alert message later.
Symptom
After configuring the Active Directory Directory Access plug-in, an alert message appears at the client computer that says "invalid user name and password combination."
Products affected
Mac OS X 10.3 or later
Solution
This happens when an incorrect name and/or password is entered, including a username entered with incorrect syntax.
The user's login name (also known as "PrincipalName") is required when binding a computer to Active Directory.
The user can also use the short part of the login name (such as "virginia"). The typical syntax of a login name is similar to "[email protected]".
Note: If the user's login name has been modified from the default "[email protected]", then the default login name must be used. The modified login name (such as "[email protected]") cannot be used."

How to avoid duplicate DN exception when creating Active Directory Account

I am using OIM 9.1.0.2 to provision Active Directory accounts.
I run into issues when the DN of the user to be created already exists and I would like to know if anyone has some logic I can use to generate a different DN for new user by adding a number or something like that to the DN
Here is an example.
User 1 exists already and their DN: cn=john smith, cn=users, dc=company,dc=org
New user joins the company and his name is also john smith and he has no middle name: so system attempts to create his account as cn=john smith, cn=users, dc=company,dc=org
how can I accomplish this by making the account say cn=john smith_1, cn=users, dc=company,dc=org

There are two different questions:
1. How to generate a sequence of candidates for the name attribute
2. How to check if a record with the given name candidate already exists in the Active Directory, and hence try the next candidate from the sequence.
The answer for the first part is usually defined by the policy existing in your organization, in the simplest case you can append sequential integer numbers to the end of the original name.
The answer for the second question is not so simple if you use are provisioning with MSAD connector.
There are two places you can put the check:
-- in the pre-populate adapter for the UD_ADUSER_COMMONNAME field
-- in the adpADCSCREATEUSER event handler, which is responsible for new AD user record creation.
Both cases need some coding, since you have to obtain the AD connection and search AD for matching records.
Pros & cons
Placing check code in the pre-populate adapter:
Pros:
the result is visible in the form, administrator can change the pre-calculated value if he wishes
Cons:
you need to have all access to connection parameters, and establish one extra connection
this is not the way OIM is supposed to work :-(
Placing check code in the AD user creation task:
Pros:
you have all access to connection parameters, and open a connection here anyway
Cons:
the result is not present in the form, so no way for manual interaction by administrator here
BTW: this problem is not only related to DN generation, some other AD attributes (e.g. sAMAccountName, mailNickName, userPrincipalName, mail) should be unique in the AD domain scope.

ActiveSync mail/contacts/calendars removed after Active Directory account is locked out?

Hey guys,
Wondering if anybody has seen an issue like this. This is a new Exchange 2010 deployment (8+ CAS servers) and the devices are all iPhones/iPads running the latest version of iOS (7.1.2). The CAS servers are behind a load-balancer.
Basically when a users' Active Directory account is Locked in AD (either manually or by entering the wrong password) their ActiveSync Contacts, Calendars and all Mail folders (except the Inbox strangely!) will be removed from the iOS device within a few hours. So an account might get locked out at say 6pm, if left locked out by the next morning the ActiveSync account will still be setup on the device as normal, but everything is gone except the mail in the Inbox. If a user has an iPad and iPhone both will be blanked.
The behaviour is similar to what is documented here - iOS: How to mitigate a full sync or reload of Exchange account data - however the Exchange servers are not issuing HTTP500 errors as we have captured logging during the window where the device blanks itself.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Hello,
which event ids are shown in the event viewer from the DCs? Or maybe locally also some errors are locked that give some more details.
If this happens it sounds personally for me that Java is the problem. Have you already opened a call at

Creating Active Directory Accounts for vSphere 5.1 Services

To set up the management pieces of vSphere, I need to have an account or accounts created in Active Directory. I need to determine how many to create and what permissions they need.
In Single Sign on Server, I need to choose an account that vCenter server will use when it connects to SSO. I can use the default admin@system-domain. Or I can add an account that is configured in Active Directory. Or, I can also use an active directory group instead of an individual user. What is the best way to do this and if I use an AD account, what permissions does it need at the domain level and at the local level on the Single Sign on Server? (I'm using multisite mode, so I can't use local accounts)
In SQL Server, I need to choose an account to use for the SQL server service. Should this account be an active directory account or a local user account? If so, what permissions should be assigned to the account in Active Directory and what permissions should be assigned to it on the local machine? What AD group, if any should it be a part of? What local permissions does it need?
In vCenter Server, I need to choose an account to run the "vCenter Server Service" in. Is it best to use the default "system" account or to use an account from Active Directory, or a local account?
I'm trying to get a big picture of an AD account/group strategy to use that covers the main management pieces of vSphere - vCenter Server, Single Sign on, Inventory Service, Web Client Services.
For example, create one group called "vSphere Services", then create separate accounts for each management piece, and assign them specific permissions on specific systems. Or create separate groups for each management piece and assign permissions to the groups. Is it better to consolidate some of these user names or split them out? Any experiences / suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Hello,
For general services I use a service specific account within AD. This was before SSO and I use the same after SSO. SSO is used by only two services that I know about at the moment (Inventory Service and perhaps vCloud). However, there are many other service accounts that should be created. You want one account per service and I use AD for this, this way I can create a service account group and give it the appropriate roles and privileges. FOr example I have service accounts for:
VMware View
XenDesktop
vCops
HPSIM
Solarwinds
VMTurbo
NetApp
etc.
One service, one service account, each with either a general role or custom role depending on access requirements to vCenter.
For SSO, I to am waiting on general information, but I set mine up fairly basically to cover only those resources that make use of SSO. Since the vast majority of items do not use SSO, the rule still applies. Once SSO is supported by more than one or two tools, you still need to maintain that separation.
So I say yes, tie SSO to AD and do everything in one place, unfortunately, that is not very clear, or at least was not to me and these SSO issues are either beng fixed, documented, or both.

Powershell Active Directory Account Expiration Script

I am putting together a script that creates a user account in AD, sets the password, adds groups, etc. The part I am having problems with is when the user selects the Contractor employee option and is prompted for the expiration date of the AD account.
The script will create the account, but the expiration date is not set in AD. Any suggestions?

Snow leopard Active directory account taking a long time to verify password

Hi,
My mac is configured to use an active directory account (windows small biz server 2008), i configured a mobile account when i was still under leopard and it was working fine. Since i upgraded to snow leopard i started experience the following issues:
When i am out of the office (not connected on the domain), logging in to my mac take about 5min after i type the password, same thing when the mac awakes from sleep, i type my password and it says verifying password and this takes about 5 minutes to complete! Another issue i am experiencing is that whenever i put my mac to sleep, when it wakes up most of the running applications crash and i have to restart them. i was hoping 10.6.2 would fix that but it didn't.
Sorry for the long post. Thank you in advance for your support!

I guess we will have to wait for someone to give us a clue, or for apple to release 10.6.3 .

Time Machine Backup using Active Directory account

I have two macbook pros (running 10.6.4) using Active Directory accounts and I am trying to backup them up to an Active Directory integrated XServe (running 10.6.4) with a shared Time Machine backup point. I open Time Machine preferences, select the disk, entering username and password, and it starts trying to make the backup disk available. However, it quits and gives me the following error - the network backup disk could not be accessed because there was a problem with the network username and password. The username and password are correct. I have tried three different accounts and they all produce this error.

This happened to an issue AFP. I had AFP authentication set to use Kerberos. I changed it to use "Any Method" and it is working properly.

Cannot login with Active Directory Account

Hello,
I am testing SnowLeopard (10.6.1) for deployment in my labs for the Spring 2010 semester. We use local home directories. This is a brand new fresh install of SL, on a freshly formatted Hard Drive.
When bound to Active Directory I can get any AD account that I've tested (5 different accounts) to authenticate except one, which happens to be my own personal AD account.
The secure.log shows these entries when I attempt to login:
Oct 9 14:18:29 mac-0017f20fc40 SecurityAgent[209]: User info context values set for ctarbox
Oct 9 14:18:29 mac-0017f20fc40 authorizationhost[208]: Failed to authenticate user <ctarbox> (tDirStatus: -14090).
Considering that I could log in with other accounts, and after resetting my AD password then still not being able to authenticate, I came to the conclusion that I had a corrupt OU in Active Directory.
I contacted one of our AD admins and had him delete both of my AD accounts: ctarbox and ctarbox1 then recreate both accounts. I still cannot login to AD with my ctarbox account.
I can still login to my current lab machines anywhere on campus running 10.5.8 with ctarbox.
I am baffled by this. I have been authenticating to Active Directory since 10.1 and have never seen anything like this.
Any idea, anyone?

I have found the solution to my problem. I have accounts in two different domains in our AD tree. I'll called these domains Domain A and Domain B.
Domain A is the primary domain for authentication to our public computing labs.
Domain B is a secondary domain for authentication to shared resources for faculty/staff.
Both accounts have the same user ID, but different passwords. In my Directory Utility>Advanced>Administrative window I have the option "Allow authentication from any domain in the forest' checked.
With this option checked Directory Utility in 10.6.1 will allow me to authenticate Domain B, but not Domain A.
With this option checked in Directory Utility in 10.5.8 just the opposite is taking place, I can authenticate to Domain A, but not Domain B.
It seems that somewhere in the upgrade to 10.6.1 the search policy for Active Directory has changed. My workaround is to uncheck this option and specifically choose Domain A in the search policy.

Unable to login with an Active Directory account on 10.6.7

I just got a Mac Airbook and I'm trying to connect with my AD account. I was able to bind my computer to the domain succesfully but when I try and logon with my AD account I get the shakes. I verified my binding with the green light next to "Network Account Server". I asked some admins who have older macs and they guided me through the settings but it still doesn't work for me. The only thing that shows up in the logs when I attempt to login is "Active Directory could not find GUID for DOMAIN\domain to update admin group". And yes, my local user is different than my AD user.
Any ideas?

Not for me. Some things mount others do not. Plus you can't use links from e-mails or save to from applications. It makes most applications completely unuse-able for me. It looks like I'm going to have to run almost everything over Parallels. Kind of of lame that Mac can't get this fixed.
