Password changes in AD - Password Synchronization Connector Issue

Hey all,
Newbie question/problem... I have the 9.1.1.0 version of the AD Password Synchronization Connector installed on all domain controllers in my AD. My OIM system is IDM 9.1.0.1 running with JBoss.
When a password is changed on the target machine that OIM is connected to, the password synchronizes across to OIM fine.
When I change a password on another DC, the password does not synchronize. I check the logs and instead get an error saying... User not found. This shows in the AD eventlog as well saying... user not found in AD, please verify the configuration parameters.
The weird thing is... if I change my OIM host to point to the 2nd DC that threw that error and change the Password Synchronization Connector to point to itself as the host, the password change will now work and synchronize back to OIM. The password change on the original DC will now throw the same error, user not found.
I am totally stumped on this one... any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
-B

Well finally figured it out... each password synchronization connector on each domain controller must:
for the host entry: use the IP of the current Domain controller box you are installing on
for the OIM host: enter the OIM server's hostname (not ip)
Just wanted to share my pains and struggles so others wouldn't have to.

  • Cant install adobe photoshop, computer wont recognise password. changed apple id password and still no success

    i cant install photoshop cs 10 as pomputer wont recognise my password. have reset my password but still no sucess.

    The password it is asking for is not your Apple ID password, more then likely.
    It is the password you use to Log on to your system. That may or may not be your Apple ID password. If you didn't use your Apple ID and the password for that ID when you first set the system up then it is not that password.
    If you have forgotten you Log On password you can reset it.

  • DAC Physical Data Source password change - invalid username/password

    We are using DAC/Informatica for loading Peoplesoft data into the warehouse. The password for the peoplesoft source was changed recently. I changed the password in DAC under setup, Type source for the Peoplesoft DB. When I select 'Test Connection' I receive the message connection established successfully. When I restart the execution plan I still get the same error - invalid username/password for obi_infa_ps, which is the account we use for accessing the Peoplesoft DB. All of the DAC and Informatica services on the server have been shutdown and restarted - still getting the invalid username/password error.
    Do I need to rebuild the execution plan? If I do, can I manually put in the needed refresh dates?

    You will also need to update the username/password in the Informatica Workflow Manager.

  • NAC Guest server allow password change

    hi,
      i see there is an option to "allow password change" or "force password change" for guest roles in the NGS. But when i created a guest account using this guest role, after webauthentication , there is no prompt to change password. Is this the intended behaviour or is there anything else that i need to configure. Looking at it, i am not sure how the NGS would allow a "guest user" to really overwrite the password by allowing password change. ? is that not a security risk as well for the NGS ? my setup has 5508 anchor controller and NGS communicating via RADIUS.
    regards
    Joe

    Rob,
    We had much the same issue, more around using AD for SSO for sponsors as well as using the NGS as the hotspot. 
    The  way around it for us was to have the NGS sit on the inside of the  network, with a FQDN (fully qualified domain name) that had a public IP address to the outside world,  but also a CNAME to an internal address on the inside of the network and  ran NAT on our firewall at the DMZ to link the public and private IP  together. 
    The flow looks something like this:-
    Wireless Client --> (public IP: NAT'd to private IP) --> Firewall --> NGS on internal network
    NGS on internal network <-- (private IP) sponsor
    NGS on internal network <-- (private IP) active-directory
    The reason we use a CNAME internally is so we can maintain the FQDN which is publically signed by an external CA.
    This seems to work ok.  Also the anchor-controller we  have for guest access also has a FQDN assigned to it's virtual interface  which is also publically signed by an external CA. 
    This stops all the security pop-ups and provides a more seemless experience to wireless clients associating with the network. 
    Security  is taken care of by strictly controlling access to the NGS both on the  anchor controller using ACL's and also on the DMZ firewall.  So if  traffic targetting the NGS comes in from the internet intended for the  NGS from an untrusted/unknown IP range/tcp port then it will not be  permitted.
    Hope this makes sense?

  • How to track password changes in EBS R12

    How to check when was the last time the apps/sysadmin passwords was changed in EBS R12.

    Yes it doesn't help much since you don't have audit enabled.
    If you want to get more details about enabling audit, you can simply search previous discussions for Audit and AuditTrail and you should find the docs/links you need to refer to.
    There should be no impact on the performance to track password changes. Apps passwords can't be changed on the fly and it requires additional steps (i.e. running AutoConfig and bouncing the services) which can't be done in your production instance many times a day.
    I'm not sure why would you need to track password changes. Is this happening in your production instance?
    Thanks,
    Hussein

  • FIM Password Synchronization Not Catching All Password Changes

    I have a FIM 2012 R2 environment and I'm about to start synchronizing password changes from AD into our legacy systems.  I have PCNS installed on my DCs and the AD MA in FIM configured as a password sync source.
    Everything works - just not all of the time.
    I've enabled PCNS verbose logging on the DCs.  I'm getting "The password notification has been delivered to all targets - (Event ID 2100)"
    success messages for all password changes but the FIM sync engine ony appears to be acting on ~25% of the incoming changes.
    I had thought it was my password extension code that may have been having issues but I stripped it down to simply dropping an event into an event log and it's still dropping 75% of the changes.
    Has anyone else seen this behaviour before? 
    Is there any way to correlate PCNS events with some form of log in FIM?  I can't seem to find anything in the event log that's tied to password changes.
    Cheers,
        Ian

    Looks like I managed to solve this one myself (it's alot easier once you manage to get logging to work correctly (doh!)).
    The problem lies in the way we're currently provisioning AD accounts (out of band through a scripted process).  This means that accounts show up in AD before FIM knows that they exist - FIM isn't having a problem finding the user in the password target
    connector space, it's having a problem finding them in the password source connector space.
    The 25% that are succeeding are the individuals who have already been recognized by FIM in both the source and target connector spaces.

    What's I should check?
    Thank a lot.

    1. Check your ports, make sure they are open.
    2. For password sync you'll need to have SSL certificates configured so AD, OIM and the connector can talk securely. Make sure the proper keystore is used and certificate is present on all 3 (the connector includes the guide to install them)
    With the above I got my connector working to this point. Hope that helps.

  • Password Synchronization Connector Installation

    Hello friends,
    About Password Synchronization Connector, my query is:
    You can install this connector, with a different user account with administrator account used to start the server in Active Directory.
    thanks

    Another query, this has to be used in the installation of the connector, in addition to the permit program should install another permit what should you be assigned in the Active Directory?
    Thank you for responding, there is some documentation that specifies your claim.

  • Email issue with password change

    I recently had to change my email password.  Now I can't get mail on my IPad.  When I go to settings under mail, contacts, calendars, it is not highlighted and will not let me open it.  I have the same issue with messages and facetime not being highlighted.  My email works fine on all other devices, including my iphone.

    Do you currently have Settings > General > Restrictions > Accounts (under the 'allow changes' heading) set to 'Don't Allow Changes' ? If you do then change it to 'Allow Changes'

  • Provisioning issues with password changes

    I have installed and configured IDM7.1+sp3 with our AS Java portal. Most features seems to work OK, except:
    1.1. Changing fullname, display name, address, etc work - but salutation or title info doesn't display correctly (only when language independant).
    1.2. Can lock the user - but not unlock.
    1.3. Can change password (self service or via Management tab) - but password "disappears" and user can't login again via the UI or directly thru the LogonGUI.
    1.4. If the user's password expires, he gets prompted to change it - this change works fine.
    After "devouring" all the documentation I could fine... I read in the Release Notes the following:
    2.1. Users are authenticated by the SAP NetWeaver AS Java (and not by the Identity Center). The password policy of the Identity Center is not used.
          = enabling or disabling "password provisioning" in the Password Policy tab makes no difference then?
    2.2 The login task does no longer exist since the authentication is done by the SAP NetWeaver AS Java (UME).
          = ok I get this part...
    2.3 Change of password is handled by SAP NetWeaver AS Java (UME) and the change password task is no longer available.
          = so the Password Reset tab is also "pointless"?
    2.4 A user's MSKEYVALUE is used as the UME logon ID.
          = right
    2.5 Password reset is handled by SAP NetWeaver AS Java. See SAP NetWeaver Identity Management Identity Center Implementation Guide u2013 Self-service password reset for details
          = (what should I do with this?) I did get this working but stopped with some error about the "encrypt password".
    My SAP landscape is pretty standard (no custom fields/attributes) - so the IDM Provisioning framework should work "out of the box" - in my understanding...
    Any ideas?
    Sorry about the multiple postings - issue with proxy server. Pls ignore/remove the extras.

    Hi.
    I try to give some answers based on my experience below:
    1.1. Changing fullname, display name, address, etc work - but salutation or title info doesn't display correctly (only when language independant).
    >> Have you checked that the user has correct language set in Java UME? Also check that in Presentation page of the corresponding Attribute the Display name parameter is set with corresponding languages used.
    1.2. Can lock the user - but not unlock.
    >> Can you see any errors e.g. in Job Log? Would help to solve the issue
    1.3. Can change password (self service or via Management tab) - but password "disappears" and user can't login again via the UI or directly thru the LogonGUI.
    >> The reason might be the encryption of the password. Typically the UI should take care of the encrypting the password into MX_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD attribute, especially when you're implementing tasks like Self Service Password Reset. I've noticed that when I disabled the Enable Password Provisioning option for the Identity Store, I got rid of the error regarding attribute MX_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD and UI automatic encryption started to work. (In my case two way pwd provisioning is not needed) Otherwise if you have issues with encrypted password in your custom tasks, check whether the value is encrypted and use java script to encrypt the password when reading the value form the UI field and saving it to MX_ENCRYPTED_PASSWORD attribute, if applicable.
    Hopefully this helps you even a bit.

  • Ias_admin password change

    Hi,
    We are facing a problem in 9iAS. We are running Oracle 9.0.2 on Suse Linux (SLES 7). The portal and infrastructure are on different machines.
    After successfully deploying the portalTools from pdk90262, encountered the following error while configuring/registering the provider (Repository Target -> 9iAS Infrastructure Database(default)) on "http://<server>:<port>/portalTools/omniPortlet/providers/omniPortlet".
    Error: Connection to the 9iAS Infrastructure Database failed by Repository Access APIs. Exception message is access denied (oracle.ias.repository.schemaimpl.CheckRepositoryPermission getSchema)
    To get rid of this problem, I used the script resetiASpassword.sh as suggested on Metalink.
    $resetiASpasswd.sh "cn=orcladmin" <ias_admin current Password> <Infra_Home>
    Quote from Metalink ============>>>
    Hi,
    This error would normally occur if the passwords are not in Sync.
    Have you changed the iAS_Admin password by any chance after installation. If yes then you need to run the resetiaspassword.bat script by giving the new password for synchronization.
    Even if you have not changed the iAS_Admin password you can still run this resetiaspassword.bat script file by giving the existing password also.
    Carry out the following steps :
    1. Backup the file $Infra_Home/config/ias.properties. This is important as the
    resetiASpasswd.bat script would change the settings in this file. In case of any issues later we can revert
    it back to the original state.
    2. Run the script in $Infra_Home/bin
    resetiASpasswd.bat "cn=orcladmin" <ias_admin Password> <Infra_Home>
    For Example :
    resetiASpasswd.sh "cn=orcladmin" 902_infra e:\902_infra
    Once this script is completed re-start you infrastructure and the application instance to check whether the same problem re-occurs.
    <<<<================= Unquote
    After running the resetiASpassword.sh script, I am unable to stop OEM using emctl utility and failed to start HTTP Server processes also.
    $emctl stop
    Security Error "Security error: Invalid username/password for em (ias_admin)".
    $dcmctl start -ct ohs
    ADMN-906025
    Please advice.

    I believe that when you run the reset ias password script you have to resync your instance using dcmctl
    the command is something like resyncInstance -i yourinstancename
    then try restarting ohs.

  • Lotus Notes password change not working

    Hi,
    I'm integrating Lotus Notus and currently we are able to create users in the Domino server, so we have many doubts:
    Lotus Notes Id Files are created in the Domino server, but this Id Files needs to be copied in the users own laptops or desktop pc's. What is the best way we can give the user the Id File?
    For password changes: I have test password change from OIM self-service, I mean, I create a user, then I provision the user account to Lotus and finally I login with the user account to OIM user self-service interface and try to change password, connector log says everything is ok and the user Id file is correctly modified but, in Domino's server, Lotus internet/http password is not modified, so it is correct? I expect the http/internet password to be changed too. For test purposes I have to copy the new Id file from the Domino server and paste it in the client pc where Lotus Notes client is installed, I put the new password and I'm able to login, but http/internet password is not changed.
    So I don't know if this is a limitation from the connector or if I miss something in order to be able to perform password changes, I have read many times connector documentation but this is not clear for me. I also have read oracle waveset Domino connector documentations but seems to work in a different way OIM do.
    Please help me

  • Gmail Password Changed: Mail cannot sync

    Hello the community,
    I will submit a question that I have seen around, but not any solutions were working for me until now.
    So to start I am under Lion Montain 10.8.2 and Mail 6.2.
    Recently I decided to change all my passwords. So I did it with gmail online. Everything works perfectly there. I have logged and un-logged manytimes with the new password.
    But when I decided to synchronize with Mail, the new password was not working.
    I read later that my Keychain Access needed some modifications. I tried so to repair the password on SMTP and IMAP, and even deleted them, with restart after... Nothing is working.
    It is actualy the same issue on my iPad and iPhone... I cannot change it
    So would anyone have a solution and maybe an explanation, why we have to face so much trouble for changing a password?
    PS: Sorry for my English, I am not native.

    Apple recently had to pull 10.8.2 due to problems with Keychain Access. Some of these issues were solved with the supplemental update that came along after the pull...

  • Keychain password change

    I think my girlfriend changed my password to keychain access. it used to be the same as my login. now mail, safari, etc. apps ask for a keychain password but when i use my login password it says invalid. How can i change my keychain password back?

    You can try this:
    Tutorial: Keychain issues; resolving
    If you can't access your keychain, or forget your password If you can't get into your keychain file because you've forgotten your password or the keychain file appears to be corrupt, there are a couple of options.
    First, if you've forgotten your password, you can use the "Keychain First Aid" utility to make the keychain password the same as the login password.
    This can be accomplished via the following process:
    Open Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities
    Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Preferences"
    Click the "First Aid" tab
    Make sure the "Synchronize login keychain password" box is checked
    Close the Preferences window
    Go to the "Keychain Access" menu and select "Keychain First Aid"
    Enter your username and password
    Click the "Repair" button
    Another option is to completely delete your keychain then recreate it. This routine is useful if your keychain appears to be corrupt or otherwise inaccessible.
    This can be accomplished as follows:
    Launch Keychain Access (located in Applications/Utilities)
    Click "Show Keychains" in the lower-left corner of the window.
    Select the problematic keychain from the left-hand pane.
    Navigate to the "File" menu and select "Delete Keychain '(name of keychain)'"
    Check all options for deletion and press "OK"
    Create a new keychain by going to the "File" menu, then "New" and selecting "New Keychain"
    You can now make this keychain your default if you desire by selecting it, then going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make '(name of keychain)' Default"
    Login as root and perform repair In some cases, problems with keychains can only be resolved when logged in as the root user.
    First, enable root user.
    After enabling the root user, and logging in under this account, again open Keychain Access. First attempt repairs using Keychain First Aid, and failing that, delete then recreate the keychain as described above while logged in as root.
    Persistently asked for stored passwords If you are persistently asked for passwords in various applications that you have specified should be remembered in a keychain, your "login" keychain may not be active for one reason or another.
    Navigate to ~/Library/Keychains/ (this is the Library folder inside your user home folder). Find the file named "login.keychain" and double-click it.
    Failing that, select the "login" keychain within the Keychain Access application and make sure it is the default keychain by going to the "File" menu and selecting "Make 'Login' Default"
    Turn off Keychain synchronization in applications having problems If specific applications are experiencing issues when accessing password-protected material, Keychain may be to blame.
    For example, it appears that in some cases, failures in .Mac synchronization transfers are linked to issues with Keychain.
    If you are having problems synchronizing data with .Mac servers, you may want to try the following process:
    Open System Preferences and access the .Mac pane
    Click the "Sync" tab
    Uncheck the "Synchronize with .Mac" checkbox
    Close System Preferences
    Re-open System Preferences and repeat steps 1 and 2
    Re-check the "Synchronize with .Mac" checkbox
    If the above process does not re-allow synchronization, you may need to leave Keychain synchronization turned off in the "Sync" tab of the .Mac System Preferences pane.
    The above comes from an article published on MacFixit.com.
