Password Policy - Mixed servers 2003 and 2008
I Need help!!!!
So this is my situation. I'm trying to enforce a Company Wide Password Policy via GPO but running into problems. We have no current Password Policy in place (This is the only one). I'm attempting to use the default global policy in Server 2008 and I'm
testing the GPO on a specific security group, but does not seem to work. It will prompt to change the password, but the other requirements aren't being enforced.
This is what I'm trying to enforce.
Expire after: 90 days
Complexity: Enabled
Cant reuse last: 12 password
Lockout time: 15 minutes
Lock out after: 5 attempts
Minimum of :8 characters
Infrastructure: We have a mix of 2003 and 2008 servers. I'm using our 2008 server to enforce the GPO.
Once I apply the GPO to a specific security group, it will prompt to change the password for the users in that group, but will not enforce all the other policies. This is a major project and we cant deploy this policy all at once (Helpdesk wouldn't
be able to handle the call volume) so we decided to deploy it by departments/Security groups. We also tried
We also tried using a fine-grained password policy but just like the GPO, it was only enforcing the password change aspect and not the other requirements like a minimum of 8 characters. Can any help!!!!

No. Read again - in 2003, there is ONE password policy for the DOMAIN,
not for individual accounts.
Technically this works the following way: Password policies are picked
up by every member computer. But on these, password policies only apply
to LOCAL accounts, not to domain accounts.
On the other hand, there are Domain Controllers. The PDC emulator is the
only one of these that will pick up Password policies - and only if they
are linked to the domain. And so, these apply to all "local" accounts on
the PDC, which in fact are the domain accounts.

Hi,
I need VB script which to checks the perticular user in AD and if it exists;that user needs to be removed from the member of perticular group
Ex:- Lets say
I have a user 783562 , I need to search this user in AD to verify user exists or not. If not then I no need to remove the mebership from perticular group
Second scenario:-
If user exists then I need to remove the user membership from the perticular group.I want to do it in automation
Manual Path:-
1.Type dsa.msc in run command of IT session(we using it to connect remote desktop).
2. Select the domain & right click (EX:-corp.ds.xxyyzz.com) and select "Find" to find the user form the domain.
3. Type the user name in the Name field and click on "Find Now" button user name will be displayed in search result.
4. Double click on this user ID and select "Member Of" tab.
5. Select any member of group from the Name section then click on "Remove" button.
6. Finally click on "Apply" and "OK" button.
Kindly help me out to do this by using vb script.
Thanks

RDP protocol i.e. Remote desktop connection is configured to perfrom and manage software administration of ORACLE application and database servers which runs on windows 2003 server. Two sessions are allowed on each of these servers for database
administrators. The question is:
a) if network administrators who perform window server administration (50+) are included in
2 sessions limit or do they manage all these servers through Console Session which is separate from the remote desktop connection limits of 2 sessions.
b) How is the 2 sessions limit prescribed by microsoft (more of a licensing limit) handled in the mix environment of windows 2003 and 2008 server where all these servers are managed on the VMWARE?
avnish sharmaHi Avnish,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
By default any windows server will provide 2 remote session for administration purpose only. No matter which administrator is accessing that server. If you will connect the console session then 3.One server is accessed by 3 Session (console + Remote +
Remote). When the particular server reached this limit then any working administrator will receive a message to log out as other user trying to access the session or if we had provided the setting then new user is restricted to login.
If you want more than 2 remote desktop session than you need to purchase TS\RDS CAL, install TS\RD Licensing role, activate it first and then configure CAL on it. There are 2 types of CAL available (USER & DEVICE). You can purchase CAL according to your
company requirements.
Hope it helps to understand!
Thanks.

New 2012 server in a mixed 2003 and 2008 domain (in process of upgrading)
We are replacing a Windows Server 2003 machine which crashed and is gone, with a Windows Server 2012 Standard machine. The old 2003 Server was a domain controller running along side one other 2003 server (which is getting replaced next) and
3 Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard x64 domain controllers which up and running. When trying to add the Windows Server 2012 Standard server as a domain controller to an existing domain, we are getting the following error:
Verification of replica failed. The forest functional level is Windows 2000. To install a Windows Server 2012 domain or domain controller, the forest functional level must be at Windows Server 2003 or higher.
However, the domain was already brought up to at least the 2003 level when we added the current live 2008 domain controller (Windows Server 2008) several years ago. When I now try to run Adprep on the Windows Server 2008 (adprep from the 2008
install CD) I get the following responses:
Command: adprep /forestprep
Response: Forest-wide information has already been updated. [Status/Consequence] Adprep did not attempt to rerun this operation.
Command: adprep /domainprep /gpprep
Response: Domain-wide information has already been updated. [Status/Consequence] Adprep did not attempt to rerun this operation.
I have gone to Active Directory Domains and Trusts on all of the other servers and each one is at a Windows Server 2003 Functional level and states that I can not raise the level because I have AD Dc's that are not running the appropriate version of
windows. And I get that due to the remaining 2003 server, but none are at Server 2000 level.
So it seems we have a conflict where the 2012 server thinks the domain is at the Windows 2000 level. Is there any way around this, or a way to find out where the conflict is coming from?
Thank you
Kevin CPlease proceed like the following:
Run netdom query fsmo to identify the current FSMO holders. It seems that the old DC was holding FSMO roles. If this is the case then seize them to another DC: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/255504
Do a metadata cleanup to remove the old DC reference: Use dsa.msc
and then remove the old DC computer account. Also, use dssite.msc
and remove the NTDS settings of the old DC then remove its references over there
After doing this, check again and try to raise the DFL and FFL. Do not forget to check that your DCs and AD replication are in healthy state using
dcdiag and repadmin commands.

SAP Server upgrade from Windows 2003 and 2008 R2 with Oracle Database
Hi,
We need to upgrade upgrade our Windows servers that are running our SAP systems from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008 R2. We are using Microsoft Clustering for HA so an inplace upgrade seems not possible.
Someone has suggested to us that we will need to export our database and reimport it to achieve this upgrade however but I cannot understand why this would be necessary (we are not changing the underlying filesystem!).
Could someone please confirm whether a database export and import is required for this OS upgrade scenario? I have done a bit of research but nothing has jumped out and now I need an answer to this quickly.
We are running
- ERP 6.0 NW 7.01 (soon to be 7.02 with ABAP stack only)
- XI(PI) Java & ABAP
- SRM (Java & ABAP)
- Portal (Java only)
- PLM (Java & ABAP)
- BW (BI 7.0) (Java and ABAP)
Thank You
FelicityHello,
You need to go for 'Homogeneous System Copy' to achieve this, but since almost all the systems in your landscape include the Java Stack as well - so the system copy with Export/Import is to be carried out.
Even if you are not going for file system change, but it is a Windows environment and you can't put SAP up on the target Windows (windows 2008 R2) just by copying the contents and file system from source to target. You need SAPinst to create the registry and all. - On top of that you have Java stacks involved, so for java stack you can't carry out just backup/restore method to put SAP up there on target - so you need Export/import because for java stack some OS level dump is to be collected during system copy from source and it needs to be imported on target OS.
Are you clear on this one ?
Read system copy guide once and Search in OSS for the Notes to check how to upgrade from Windows 2003 to Windows 2008 R2.

Zone transfer between 2003 and 2008
Hi I am new in windows servers and I am studying about it , While doing practical of DNS, I am unable to transfer dns zones from server 2008 to server 2003. Server 2008 has installed AD and DNS, 2003 server also have installed DNS but it is just
connected to 2008 and its not part of domain.
Is it important to make secondary or additional domain controller to 2003 server of 2008 sever before transferring dns zones?Hi,
According to your description, it seems that it is an AD-integrated zone.
An AD Integrated is stored in the AD database, and the zone will replicate to other domain controllers within the same replication scope automatically as part of the
AD replication process. By default, AD integrated zones are configured to not allow zone transfers. Allowing zone transfers is an option provided to support non-DC DNS servers, BIND or any other name brand DNS server that you want to allow zone transfers to
a secondary on those servers.
In your case, if you want to make the Windows Server 2003 as an additional DC, then zone transfer is not needed. If not, you can configure zone transfer and add the
IP address of the Windows Server 2003 to the zone transfer tab in the properties of the zone in DNS console.

Susie

Permission and ownership in Server 2003 and 2008 file server
I have an issue but I am not sure if these are the designs of the file server permissions. I have one user who has the modify rights to modify/read and create folders in a share folder. In the share folder, she had created a subfolder; so she should
be the owner of the subfolder and her security permission is modify. By right, modify does not have the rights to assign the permission to other users but as owner, she does. Does this mean that the folder owner supersede the security? And is this possible
to avoid this? eg. folder owner but does not have the rights to assign permissions to other user to access. Thanks a lot.Hi Thim,
>>Does this mean that the folder owner supersede the security?
If the user is the Owner of the folder, he or she should have Full Control permissions to the folder,
which means the user can do anything to the folder.
>>And is this possible to avoid this? eg. folder owner but does not have the rights to assign permissions to other user to access.
As far as I know, unless we deprive the user of the ownership, we can't achieve this.
Regarding file and folder permissions, the following article can be referred to for more information.

Problems Implementation Password Policy on OIM 9.1.0
Hello,,,
Please help me,
i was create password policy on OIM, i inject that pass policy to one of resource object, i create object form and process form with same configuration ( field table ), i use data flow to transmit the data between object form and process form..
i set process definition with check AUTO SAVE FORM, and AUTO PRE-POPULATE,
the Problems is :
1. When i try to do provisioning process ( with delegated admin : xelsysadm ) to that resource object (target system) , after admin submit , status process is provisioning, and the detail is System Validation : Pending
2. Then i try to remove password policy on resource object, and i try again to do the provisioning, and the process working fine, status process provisioned, detail process
system validation : completed, Create user : completed
why it'is happen ?
that the important point is, why AUTO SAVE FORM cannot working fine if i inject Password Policy on resource Object...
Warm regards,
Ricky R
ManilaWhen you say you have checked auto prepop means that there are pre pops attached to certain fields on your process form that you want to be auto triggered before provisioning commences. So i'm assuming that you are pre-populating password field. Is the password value that you are prepopping the field with conform to the standards of the password policy? If not that could be the reason why your provisioning process isnt getting kicked off. you will need to supply a password (either manually or if you want to automate it (pre pop it)) that coforms to the password policy defined on the resource object. Also i think the name of the password field must be _PASSWORD.

Password policy not applying properly
I have set password policy for my domain that
Maximum age: 60days
Minimum age is: 45days
but I get messages every week that passwords would expire in 4 days
I checked using rsop.msc and policy seems to be correctly applied.
what could be the problem?> Maximum age: 60days
> but I get messages every week that passwords would expire in 4 days
If your GPO is applied correctly, this simply means that the last
password change was 56 days ago.
> I checked using rsop.msc and policy seems to be correctly applied.
On the client? Your user is not a local user on the client, but most
probably a domain user. So you need to check RSoP.msc on the PDC
emulator, not on the client.
> what could be the problem?
You forgot to link your password policy to the domain, and after doing
so, make sure you move it upwards above the existing "default domain
policy". In the security filter, add at least "Domain Controllers" -
better leave "Authenticated Users". And finally, do not block
inheritance on the "domain controllers" OU.

Use Windows Server 2003 or 2008 with BootCamp?Just want to run basic things
Hey, well I can get a copy of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and 2008 with the DreamSpark program (as I am in college) for free. But my question is, is this a good idea to use with my MacBook Pro? I wasn't sure how well it'd work with Boot Camp, and all I'd want is to just run basic programs and/or games.
Is it a good idea? And does anyone have tutorials for how to install it?Hi,
Windows Server 2003 and XP 64-bit share the same codebase and XP-64bit is not supported with BootCamp.
Windows Server 2008 and Vista 64-bit share the same codebase and Vista 64-bit is only supported with BootCamp on some Macs. See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846
For running 'basic' things with the Server versions, why not use one of the Virtualization apps like Parallels, VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox ?
http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/
http://www.virtualbox.org/
VirtualBox is open-source, so you don't have to pay for it.
