IE 11 security settings / Server 2012 domain joined server

Can someone clarify how the Security settings are automatically managed on domain jointed computers in IE 11 / Server 2012 R2:
There seem to be different settings depending on the IE Enhanced Security Settings.
I particular if IE Enhanced Security Settings are on, Security is forced to High for Internet and admins cannot change it.
If IE Enhanced Security Settings is off for admins Security is forced to Medium High and admins cannot change it
If IE Enhanced Security Settings is off Security is Medium-High and admins can change it
Is this by design?
Run As Administrator seems to have no effect.
This only happens on domain joined systems

Hi CarolChi,
IE-ESC is a feature from Windows Server. Yes, just as what your think, this behavior is by design.

  • Sql server 2005 in server 2012 domain

    Hello,
    I am running sql server 2005, in a 2003 domain.  I plan to possibly upgrade domain/servers to 2012, but am thinking it may create issues with sql 2005? 
    1. Can sql server version 2005 (32-bit) run ok in a 2012 server domain?
    2. If not, will it run ok, if I leave 2003 servers (running mixed mode) until sql 2005 is upgraded?
    Thank you
    Robert

    1. Can sql server version 2005 (32-bit) run ok in a 2012 server domain?
    No  & May be.
    No if you are trying to have multiple version of SQL Server on server ,as per this
    article
    SQL Server 2005 (the release version and service packs) and earlier versions of SQL Server are not supported on Windows
    Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1, or Windows 8. You will receive a warning in the Action Center if Windows 8.1 or Windows 8 detects an instance of SQL Server 2005.
    May be, if you just want to have single instance of SQL Server 2005 on server 2012. Check this:
    How to install SQL Server 2005 on Windows 8 
    2. If not, will it run ok, if I leave 2003 servers (running mixed mode) until sql 2005 is upgraded?
    To be able to answer this question in a better way, may I know your SQL Server 2005 version and to which version you want to upgrade? Check for the
    supported version and editor upgrade
    before going for upgrade along with there hardware and software requirements. 
    Glad to help! Please remember to accept the answer if you found it helpful. It will be useful for future readers having same issue.

  • Renaming Windows Server 2012 Domain Controller with Exchange Server 2013

    Is it possible to rename Windows Server 2012 Domain Controller, as we are using Exchange Server 2013 as a member server on Windows Server 2012 ?
    We have some issues with the Domain Name, so want to rename..
    Maybe somebody knows the best practices how to do this in best way???
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    You should do the following:
    1. Promote another DC.
    2. Transfer FSMO roles to that server.
    3. Decommission old DC.
    4. Rename it.
    5. Promote it again as DC.

  • Install AADSync on a Workgroup server (non-domain joined)

    Does anyone has experiences with installing AADSync on a non-domain joined server (workgroup). A company with multiple forests wants to have a "neutral" server for the identity synchronisation. It looks like the tool is installing fine, but can
    there be some configuration issues?

    This is supported.  See here:

  • How to Migrate Win Server 2008 to Win Server 2012 if PDC server no longer exist?

    With this being Foundation (less than 15 users) with some problems already, it might be smarter to just start the new server fresh.

    I took over a small business company's network infratructure with Server 2008 Foundation and I would like to migrate to a new Windows Server 2012 r2.The Server 2008 Foundation is a DC with AD / DHCP / DNS / File & Print Server roles. I would like to transfer these roles to the new server with Win Server 2012 r2 std OS. My plan is to join the new server to the old DC, promote it as DC, and transfer roles to it, demote old server and power off.However, there was an older server (Windows 2003) which is no longer in the office and it was the current operations master. The server 2003 was the PDC. When I open AD Domains and Trusts I get this error:"You cannot modify domain or trust info because a PDC emulator cannot be contacted.."Maybe the FSMO roles wasn't transferred over from 2003 to 2008 properly? I don't know.How can I move forward to...

  • Downgrading a DC running Server 2012 R2 to Server 2008 R2

    This is NOT a licensing question. All I see when searching this question are answers about licensing. I already have the licensing. My question is, is it possible to downgrade a domain controller that is running Server 2012 R2 to Server 2008 R2? I mistakingly
    raised the functional level of my domain from server 2003 to 2012 R2 before upgrading my exchange server running 2003 and now I have no way to migrate my exchange server. Ideally, I would like to just downgrade the DC to Server 2008 R2 and upgrade everything
    else to that level as well, including Exchange Server 2010. Any relevant input would be greatly appreciated.

  • Difference between database features - SQL Server 2008 R2 navtive vs SQL Server 2012 with SQL Server 2008 compatibility set?

    I am investigating the impact of upgrading from SQL Server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012. To reduce the impact of the upgrade, I am planning to restore / create our application database onto SQL Server 2012 with compatibility level 100 (SQL Server 2008 and
    SQL Server 2008 R2).
    Are there any differences in feature support for database running in native mode on SQL Server 2008 R2 vs a database installed on SQL Server 2012 with compatibility level 100 set?

    Are there any differences in feature support for database running in native mode on SQL Server 2008 R2 vs a database installed on SQL Server 2012 with compatibility level 100 set?
    Yes there can be difference and impact there are few features deprecated in SQL Server 2012 you must be aware about that. Please see

  • Connect SQL Server 2012 from Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0

    Hi,
    I currently have a setup where ETL tool Ab Intio, running on a Linux server, connects to the SQL Server 2005 through a passthrough Wintel server with Windows Server 2003 OS using SQL server native client 9.0
    Now I have the requirement to upgrade the SQL server from 2005 to 2012.
    My question is, will it be possible to connect to SQL server 2012 through Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0?
    As per the specs, I need native client 11.0+ to fully support SQL Server 2012, but then, as per specs, native client 11.0 doesnot run on Windows server 2003. OS upgradation is currently not on the cards.
    So will it be possible to the run the basic queries we use currently, if we can connect SQL server 2012 through Windows Server 2003 with native client 9.0/10.0, without updgrading the OS of the Wintel server?
    Thanking you in advance! 

    Hi Soumya,
    Yes, you can use the SQL Server Native Client shipped with SQL Server 2005 to connect to a SQL Server 2012 instance, and there is no need to upgrade the operating system.

  • Change Tracking internals behave differently, SQL Server 2012 vs SQL Server 2008

    <original post by Glenn Estrada>
    Reposting an issue from Stack Overflow that a coworker and I are dealing with.
    In trouble shooting an issue with synchronizing disconnected devices with a central database server using Sync Framework 1.0, we are experiencing a problem after upgrading to SQL Server 2012 on the server. It appears that the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION
    is returning a value 1 higher than it should (or at least than it did prior to the upgrade.)
    I have been working thru Arshad
    Ali's great walk thru example of how to set up a simple example.
    I have run the scripts from #1 thru #5 to insert, delete, and update a row in the Employee table in both a SQL Server 2008 and a 2012 environment.
    In 2008, the following statement returns a 0:
    SELECT CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION(OBJECT_ID('Employee'))
    In 2012, it returns a 1.
    In working thru a few more scripts (6-8) in the tests, I set the retention period to 1 minute to hopefully force a cleanup action. I left for the day and apparently it ran overnight.
    In the 2008 instance, the CHANGE_TRACKING_CURRENT_VERSION and the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION are equal (11). In the 2012 instance, the CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION is one higher (12) than the CHANGE_TRACKING_CURRENT_VERSION (11). This could have
    an impact to the synchronization process when a database is idle for extended periods of time. And we have found that process could get caught in a loop, especially when the following test is performed to determine if a re-initialization, as opposed to synchronization,
    is required:
    IF CHANGE_TRACKING_MIN_VALID_VERSION(object_id(N'dbo.Employee')) > @sync_last_received_anchor
    RAISERROR (N'SQL Server Change Tracking has cleaned up tracking information for table ''%s''...
    Has anyone else experienced this change in behavior? Does anyone have an explanation?

  • It is compatible Obi 11g  with Windows Server  2012 and Sql Server 2012?

    Hi every
    Please help with two questions.
    1. - Obi 11g is supported on Windows Server 2012 and SQL Server 2012?
    There a compatibility matrix which mention compatibility with versions 2012?
    2. - is feasible to install Obi 11g in separate server and install weblogic on another server?
    I appreciate the prompt response
    Regards
    Pedro

    Hi Pedro,
    As of November 2012 Compatibility Matrix released by Oracle for OBI 11.1.1.x Windows 2012 and SQL Server 2012 were not supported. It was supported on 2008 Windows and SQL Server.
    We can have weblogic and OBI server's on 2 different machines. The approach is to opt software only install. the link below will give more details:

    Hi,

  • Server 2012 R2 File Server - 2008 R2/Win7 Clients Access Denied. SMB 3 Encryption.

    I've setup a Server 2012 R2 File Server. When creating shares I selected to enable encryption.
    Now Windows 7 and 2008 R2 clients cannot access. Pretty clear that this is SMB 3 encryption the cause.
    OK. So can I enable these Windows 7 and 2008 R2 clients to access encrypted SMB 3 shares?
    I can find no answer or documentation on this.

    So can I enable these Windows 7 and 2008 R2 clients to access encrypted SMB 3 shares?
    No, you can't. These Windows 7 and 2008 R2 clients talking to Windows Server 2012 R2, they will negotiate to the lowest common protocol which would be SMB 2.1 enabling communication, while not taking advantage of the SMB 3.0 specific capabilities (encryption
    included).
    There's no built-in encryption inside SMB 2.1
