List of Domains and Child Domains

I am working in Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
Is there a way to list Domains and Child Domains entered this way:

Hi Philosophiae,
Please refer to the cmdlet
Get-ADDomain on server 2008 R2, it will get abundant domain information.

Domains and Child Domains

Hi guys
Just a bit of advice needed, we have our domain setup (test.com) running 2008 R2 and with 2dcs and all is well running 1200+ users and 500+ computers on the subnet 10.114.4.0/22, we need a branch office setup and want it managed separately with its
own dcs, would it be best to create a child domain (child.test.com) on a new subnet 10.114.8.0/19 or a new forest entirely?
Thanks
Al

I think you will have to define "managed seperately" to be able to give adequate advice.
Microsoft has changed Active Directory in subsequent versions to remove design needs for more complex setups like subdomains or even forests with trusts by removing limits and adding features to allow proper delegations. For example, teh amount of
objects Ad support has significantly increased, fine-grained pw policy is introduced, delagation has been made easy,...
You should only create another domain if you intend not to manage it from your side and/or do not want resources to be shared and/or connectivity is limited and replication traffic unwanted. Otherwise, in most cases, the proper design would be to define
a new site in the existing domain, put some dc's in there and put its resources (computers, users, groups,...) in a separate OU. You can delegate the management of the OU to admins in the branch office.
This allows for central administration (that can be enforcing), as well as autonomy for the local admins.
Another forest would only be the adequate design if both offices do not have to communicate at all.

Arbitration mailboxes exist in root and child domains, which to delete?

Hi,
I discovered a problem with my Arbitration Mailboxes when setting up a Moderated Distribution group. The moderator wasn't receiving an email from Exchange advising that there was a message that needed to be approved or declined. A bit of digging in Message
Tracking and the Event log (IDs 9214 & 9217) revealed that the email address for the MS Exchange Approval Assistant exists twice, in both our root and child domains.
The question is which to delete, the account in root or child? All of the users are in the child domain so presumably it's the account in root which I should delete, but I'm not 100% sure.
Any pointers very welcome.
Cheers.

Hi,
Agree with Andy. The arbitration accounts are in the root domain by default. You should delete the account in child domain. Then you can use the Get-Mailbox -Arbitration | fl displayname command to check if you can get this system mailbox in child domain.
If you can't get this system mailbox in the child domain, you need to run the following command, so that the scope of the search is changed to the forest level.
Set-ADServerSettings –ViewEntireForest $true

Replication with Domain and Sub domain in Active directory sites and services

I seen many AD enviroments and know that when you have mutiple DCs you use Active Directory Sites and services to replicate using the NTDS Settings. If you have a Domain and sub domain do you need to do this as well or does it sync up automatically because
it's a sub domain? A see a couple of domains where the NTDS settings isn't being used to snyc with the child domain. Just wondering if that is normal or will it cause authentication errors?

Two way transitive trusts are configured automatically when you create a child domain or tree root domain. You don't have to worry about site/subnet or replication part at least from trust perspective. But make sure site's names are unique in each domain.

Affinity goup, availability set and the concept of Update Domain and Fault Domain

Can 2 VM belonging to the same affinity group, belong to the same
availability set?
I have read (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/7916.importance-of-windows-azure-affinity-groups.aspx)
Affinity groups are logical abstraction of the physical concept of
Containers (unit of compute) in Microsoft Datacenters.
How do then Update Domains and Fault Domains relate to this concept of Container?
Are there multiple Fault Domains in a Container?
Thanks,
Davide

Hi Davide,
Thanks for posting!
>>Can 2 VM belonging to the same affinity group, belong to the same
availability set?
The answer is no. Base on my understanding, affinity group is to keep your VMs physically closer together within the datacenter. And your 2 VMs may be in one host OS. But if you use the Availability Set, it could guarantees that your 2 VMs are
spread across multiple racks in the Windows Azure Data Centers.
>>How do then Update Domains and Fault Domains relate to this concept of Container?
>>Are there multiple Fault Domains in a Container?
For this issue, I recommend you refer to this documents (http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-manage-availability/
) and this blog (http://michaelwasham.com/windows-azure-powershell-reference-guide/understanding_configuring_availability_sets_powershell/
). At the same time, you could see this article (http://www.techbunny.com/2013/11/close-but-not-too-close-azure-affinity.html ) for digging deep understanding .
Hope this helps.

Active Directory Domain Services Child Domains

I am using Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771856(v=ws.10).aspx
When I select "Add Roles" I click on "Active Directory Domain Services (Installed)" the "Next>" button is not enabled and can not be selected.
Did I install ADDS wrong?
Is this not how you define Child Domains?
If I use the Command Line or Answer File Methods I get an error message at "ChildName".
Did I forget to install something about enabling Child Domains when installing ADDS?

Hi,
Did you try to create a child domain on the Domain Controller? It seems like that this Server is already a DC, with Active Directory Domain Services installed.
We don’t have to enable anything in the root domain for creating child domains/new trees, we just need to run
Dcpromo or Add Role on another server which is not a DC, and select the existing domain as its parent, then the child domain will be created.
In addition, please make the existing DC as the preferred DNS server on the new server.
I hope this helps.

Manage client in parent domain from child domain

My site has a root domain (mydomain.net) and a parent domain (ent.mydomain.net).
My primary SCCM site is installed in ent.mydomain.net and is managing all my clients.
I have 4 DC's installed in mydomain.net that I would like to manage from my child domain (ent.mydomain.net).
It is my understanding that if the schema has been extended in the parent domain, and I manually install the client on the DC, it should be able to be managed from the child domain.
I have installed the client in the parent, but it cannot find the site in the child (I have not extended the schema yet). i know that the client will not be able to find the site until the system management container has been created and populated
(does not currently exist). I know that I can create the container, but how would it get populated with the correct site information.
If anyone has any experience with this kind of configuration, the help would be appreciated.
Thanks

i know that the client will not be able to find the site until the system management container has been created and populated (does not currently exist). I know that I can create the container, but how would it get populated with the
correct site information.
You could enable AD publishing to that domain, but site assignment is also a matter of site assignment boundary groups. You can also assign a client to a site manually though.

ContentSubmitters AD group: root domain or child domain???

Hi
We have an empty root domain. Mailbox users & Exchange 2013 servers are in a child domain.
As per Microsoft's documentation; we want to create the "ContentSubmitters" group in AD for content index to work properly (article 2807668). However I do not know where to create it!!! The article doesn't address it.
Does it go on the root domain where default exchange groups reside OR OR OR OR OR does it go on child domain where exchange servers reside?????
Thanks

Hi,
Agree with Riaz, you need to create the ContentSubmitters group on the domain that Exchange server is installed using Active Directory Users and Computer (ADUC).
What's more, when you create the active directory security group called ContentSubmitters, follow the steps below to grant Admistrators and NetworkService full access to the group.
Right click the group -> Properties ->Security tab -> add those two groups -> give them full control to the group.
Here is a thread for your reference.

User Migration from Parent Domain to Child Domain..The user is enabled with Exchange 2010 Mailbox in Parent Domain

We currently have a single Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory domain controller, and an Exchange 2010 server. We are in the process of adding a child domain on a second Active Directory server for an offsite office location for a subdivision of our company.
The two locations will be connected via VPN.
Currently users exist on the root domain with Exchange accounts who will be moving to the new offsite company/location. We would like to be able to move these user accounts to the child domain while maintaining their existing Exchange mailboxes and
email addresses. Is this possible, and if so how would we do it?

Hi Srinivasa,
According to your description, I think you have done all the preparation.
For DL migration, the following article may give your some hints:

Migrating 2 domains into child domains in a new forest

I have a unique senario in which my company merged with another.
My Company:
Windows 2003 AD
Exchange 2003 SP3
192.x.x.x
New Company
Windows 2008 AD
Exchange 2010
10.x.x.x
Each domain has its own resources, servers and workstations. For political reasons we still need some management seperation.
My Goals:
Create a new root neutral forest/domain.
Migrate both domains to 2 child domains under this new root
Bring the domain to 2012 R2
Create a single Exchange 2010/2013 cluster with all mailboxes
What is the best way to accomplish this? Where exactly does Exchange sit?
Thanks!

Hi,
>>What is the best way to accomplish this?
In Active Directory, we can use ADMT to do the migration. However, if we need Inter-forest migration from Domain Controller 2003 to Domain Controller 2012, at this time MS
has not ADMT for Windows Server 2012. We can downgrade our forest and Domain functional level to Windows Server 2008 R2, add an additional Domain Controller 2008 R2 and use ADMT 3.2 for migration. After migration is completed, we can demote Domain Controller
2008 R2 and raise again FFL & DFT to Windows Server 2012.
Regarding specific procedures for performing the migration, the following article can be referred to as reference.

How to list selected parent and child rows with values from ADF TreeTable

I created one tree table having three levels using DepartmentsVO, EmployeesVO and
JobHistoryVO where these tables contains parent and child relationship on database.
Then i added one more column to the tree table which displays selectBooleanCheckBox. This
check box is available for parent and child rows in that column.
My first concern is i
want to list out all the parentids and its child ids from three levels where the check
box is selected.
second concern is
if i select the check box for a parent row, then the remaining check boxes for child rows also select automatically which are comes under the parent row.
Thanks in advance.
jk

hi Frank,
Thanks for the quick reply...
As I mentioned before I am able to get the children using JUCtrlHierNodeBinding. but wanted to change the value of child row which have specific data.
Is it possible through JUCtrlHierNodeBinding to update data of child and parent?? If so then can you please post the code snippet for the same???

WLC / ACS / AD - Domain and non-Domain Laptops (802.1X / PEAP)

Hi All,
I'm implementing a solution based around 4404 WLC, 1113 ACS and Microsoft AD. What I want to achieve is have two WLAN (SSID), one that can only be used by domain users on domain laptops, the other can be used by domain users on personal laptops. The domain laptops will have full connectivity but the personal laptops will be restricted.
I've created the two SSID using 802.1X via ACS / Remote Agent and can authenticate and logon OK.
I thought that I should have user auth and machine auth for the domain laptops but just user auth for personal laptops.
I can have non authenticated machines go to a specific ACS group or blocked but I need to allow them if they're on the restricted SSID. I can't quite figure out how to have two SSIDs authenticating to the same ACS / AD - allow one and block the other.
Am I on the right path?
Anyone done this before or have any bright ideas?
Cheers,
John

With the use of SSID-based WLAN access, the users can be authenticated based on the SSID they use in order to connect to the WLAN. The Cisco Secure ACS server is used to authenticate the users. Authentication happens in two stages on the Cisco Secure ACS:
1. EAP authentication
2. SSID authentication based on Network Access Restrictions (NARs) on Cisco Secure ACS

Workshop domain and regular domain difference in weblogic81sp3

1) From what I read, if you use workshop developed an app with Web Services proj, you would need a workshop enabled domain to host the app(.ear).
2) if so, do I HAVE to run config wizard on the acturall production box(s) to create the workshop domain? We are currently deploying our 7.0 app using this approach, which pre-build the whole domain directory with prod configuration in it, and then push it to prod boxes. By pre-build, we use a staging box where we run our ant tasks to build a domain that has applications, config.xml, e.t.c in it. and then the whole domain is being pushed out to all production boxes. So, can i still do the same with the workshop domain? of course, i will need to use the wizard to create a template workshop domain, and modify that for our new workshop domain.
Please, anyone, let me know if this is still doable with this new workshop domain.
thanks

Webserver domains and sub-domains not loading correctly

I'm having a problem with my pages loading correctly on my Maverick server.
www.example.com loads correctly
example.com loads to the website at the top of my virtual domain list.
Weird but happens on all my virtual sites...
http://www.richard-bradley.com loads fine
http://richard-bradley.com loads to another virtual domain at the top of my list...?
Any advice would be appreciated...

This sound like a DNS thing.
Whats the Primary Zone in your DNS? In the DNS config page click the cog at the boom to show All Records
I sound like the primary zone is www.richard-bradley.com and it needs to be richard-bradley.com
But can you confirm this for me to make sure I understand.
You have primary site www.example.com and anyone visiting it get served data "A"
You have a virtual site example.com and and you set it to serve data "B" but when someone visits they get data "A"
Am I getting that right?

Request help to display a list with parent and child list item.

I created a static list with items A,B,C and a child item A1 under parent A. I chose the template "vertical Side bar list". I am using theme 10 (sand) for my application. I created page 0 and am displaying the list on page template region position2. I am able to see the side bar with options A,B,C. But am not able to see the child option A1 when I click on Option A. I tried using 'DHTML MENU WITH SUB LIST' but When I click on option A, the child entry A1 is showing over the B and C options. I know this might be a pretty basic functionality. I am new to APEX and am just learning. I appreciate any help you give me.

Mr.Backstrom,
I have changed the list template overide to dhtml Tree. And now the list is being displayed as vertical unordered list with bullets. Is it possible to take off the bullets? Thank you for your time.
Suma.
