Syncing Users from DS to AD

What is the best way to sync users from DS to AD.
I've tried:
idsync resync -w <password> -q <password> -c -o Sun
Which works but it invalidates the passwords on AD. Is there another way to do it so the passwords are not invalidated or what should the next step be to sync passwords.

I think you have to do a resync before you start synchronizing and then it become real time.

  • LDAP Sync - Syncing users from OID

    We have an instance running the IAM/IDM Suite 11.1.1.5. We have enabled LDAP Sync successfully between OIM and OID. In terms of LDAP Sync functionality, I was wondering whether users in OID can be created in OIM upon a sync. I know updates and deletes in OID can be reflected in OIM. What about creates?
    For example, we have a new OIM instance deployed with no users. We have LDAP Sync enabled to an OID instance with users populatd in the LDAP-configured OU. Assuming all attributes are mapped correctly, can OIM bring these users in through the LDAP Sync?

    If you look at the xml file for LDAPUser, the recon action rules at the bottom, it contains a rule to create when a user is not found. So when you perform the LDAP Sync recon, so long as the changelog picks up the full list of user attributes on creation by a user not in the modifydnfilter, then you will get a new oim user.

  • WWC-41742 or How to delete a user from wwsec_person$

    Hey all,
    We're syncing users from AD, and then doing WNA... that all works fine... but it hiccuped. Had a user got married, and somehow, it didn't just synch the user, up, but it created a new one with the new name. (same NT user ID, different DN)
    Not knowing that it would cause a problem we nuked the old user, but now we get WWC-41742 which says to delete the user from wwsec_person$... which I can't seem to do...

    What am I missing?
    Ken

    I'm guessing you are trying to do this from a tool outside portal such as sqlplus, SQL Developer, Toad, ...? If so, I think it is hiccuping because you don't have a lightweight identity -- you need to be logged into portal to access that table. Two choices -- delete the entry via the DBA tab in navigator when logged in as an administrative user (portal or orcladmin for example) or set context in your database session by running "exec PORTAL.wwctx_api.set_context('portal','<portal's lighweight password>');. Note that password is the user password for portal when logging in the portal GUI, not the PORTAL schema password.

  • Project Server 2013 - Remove user from resource pool via sync

    Hello everyone,
    has anyone managed to configure their Project Server 2013 box with a resource pool sync that will actually remove user from the resource pool (disable "User can be assigned as resource" or deactivate users) when the user is removed from the AD
    group(s)?
    Setup: Single box, SQL 2012 SP1, SharePoint/Project Server 2013 + PU March + CU April. 2 PWA instances, 1 in SharePoint and 1 in Project permission mode. Tried on 2 different machines (different setup, accounts, domains).
    Proceedings:
    Create AD user U, AD group G. Add U to G.
    Go to PWA, setup resource pool sync with G, sync.
    U is now in the resource pool, has no PWA permissions.
    Remove U from G. Resync resoure pool.
    U is still in resource pool, still a resource, still active, can still be assigned as resource.
    Adding U back to G an repeating the whole spiel with a resource pool and a PWA group sync of G will result in U being added and removed from the user list (as expected), and U being added but not removed from the resource pool.
    Having read
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg982985.aspx and
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg750243.aspx, there does not seem to be an omission on my part.
    The first article states:
    Note:
    The corresponding Project Server User Account is not deactivated based on this synchronization. If the same Active Directory user is configured to synchronize with a Project Server security group, the Project Server user account will be inactivated when
    that synchronization occurs. For more information, see
    Best practices to configure Active Directory groups for Enterprise Resource Pool synchronization in Project Server 2013.
    Unfortunately, this deactivation either does not seem to occur even with a PWA group sync or I misunderstood the article.
    So, did anyone manage to setup their resource pool sync in a way, that new resource will be added, but also be removed from the resource pool?
    Kind regards,
    Adrian

    Hi Adrian,
    you tried to sync the same AD group that you used for the resource pool sync also with a Project Server permission group?
    And on removal of the user of the AD group the project user/resource is not deactivated? Only removed from the group
    Regards
    Christoph
    Hi  Christoph,
    even though I might have tried that before, I tried it again in several constellations. It didn't change anything. The the user will be properly added to and removed from the PWA group whenever I remove them from the AD group, the use will also stay active
    (but cannot logon without permissions). However, the user will always remain in the resource pool, i.e. the "User can be assigned as resource." checkbox will remain unless it is cleared manually.
    Having re-read the technet articles, none of the scenarios actually seem to descibe or address the process that I require, or maybe I'm just misunderstanding. Let me just try to outline the core issue:
    Add user to AD group. Sync AD group with resource pool. User is now a PWA resource and PWA user.
    Remove user from AD group, but do not deactivate/delete user from AD.
    (Magic happens!)
    User cannot be assigned as ressource in PWA.
    So, is there anything to make this step 3 happen, or is it just not possible to sync users out of the resource pool anymore unless they are deleted/deactivated in AD?
    Kind regards,
    Adrian

    If the latter, you can place the iPad into recovery mode as shown here.  You may have to try this several times:

  • How to sync user for planning from Shared Services

    Hi ..
    Can anybody please let me know how to sync users for planning from shared services.
    Thank you.

    You need to expand on your question.
    But the basic concept is you create or connect (for LDAP) users in Shared Services. You also create groups as required for these users. Then in shared services you provision those user to Planning applications (directly or indirectly through groups)
    Then in Planning you will see users or groups. And in planning you connect them to either members in dimensions or to objects like Forms, Task lists, Business Rules.
    There is therefore no such thing as synching Shared Services with Planning.
    Note: the 2 steps mentioned above can be done in batch through load utilities.
    Please expand you question if necessary

  • Blocking users from syncing calendars and contacts from itunes

    Is there a way to block users from syncing the corporate GAL and their Outlook calendars from their company computer?

    Thanks for the answer Simon. That seems simple enough but there are some things which aren't clear.
    If I create accounts on the server for the users independently (ie not ownership of the home folder) they're going to have different UID's. Surely this means that even with the same account name and password, they're going to be treated as unique users. Does that not affect who has write access? I don't know how the Calendar and Contact servers work so this may be irrelevant.
    How do you "have the server host their calendar and contact details"? Copying the files for the existing local users to the new users on the server will leave them with invalid permissions.
    I have read that using the Calendar and Contact components of Server.app is not a supported way of syncing across machines and that they're intended to be used for shared information rather than syncing. But maybe there is no way to avoid an "unsupported method" without moving the home folder. Is this a method you're using?
    I'll do a bit of testing with this but would also be grateful for any additional hints.

  • New user on iphone -- how do I sync apps from my itunes account?

    My husband bought and used an iphone 3g, and bought five free apps. Then he gave the iphone to me. I have my own itunes account on my own computer, and have purchased free apps on my computer, but the apps don't sync to my iphone. (My music library from CDs and my address book do sync from my itunes account on my computer to my iphone). Any solution short of "restore"? I want to purchase apps on my itunes account on my computer and use them on my iphone.

    The apps I purchase on my itunes account on my computer do not sync with (transfer to) my iphone. Here are some free apps I have purchased: NYTimes, weathebug, nearby, ypmobile, movies, free hangman. None of them sync.
    When I sync by iphone with my itunes account on my computer, I get a dialog box telling me that there are apps on my phone that are not in my itunes account on my computer (my husband's five free apps). The box asks me to choose to "transfer", or "don't transfer", these apps. If I choose "don't transfer", I am warned that I will lose those apps. I have tried both methods "don't transfer" and "transfer" -- in both cases my new apps from my itunes account on my computer do not sync. In both cases my husband's apps on the iphone remain.
    My itunes account on my computer indicates that I have successfully purchased and downloaded the apps.
    I believe this problem is caused because an iphone can only sync apps from one itunes account. If true, than I need to know how to unconnect my iphone from my husband's itunes account.
    I would appreciate any help.

  • Migrating Users from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 Without redirection through exchange 2013.

    We have all our users and mailboxes on Exchange 2007 and I have introduced two Exchange 2013 servers in my organization and both have mailbox and CAS server installed on them. 
    With Exchange 2007 server, I had not modified any of the internal and external url/uri and had stayed with the defaults.
    For migration most of the documents are suggesting of changing the default internal URL and Auto Discover Service internal URI values.
    In my case, I want to migrate all the users and mailbox (everything that is on Exchange 2007) form 2007 to 2013 and decommission exchange 2007 completely from our organization.
    I am in the phase of transferring users from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 and do not want to change any settings on the existing 2007 servers.
    I have created new dns entry mailx.abc.com with two IPs of both exchange 2013 and changed the Outlook Anywhere internal URL on both Exchange 2013 server to mailx.abc.com.
    So by doing these, I think all existing clients will still connect to exchange 2007 and after moving their mailbox they will be connect to exchange 2013.
    In short I am not redirecting or using 2013 as proxy for 2007 clients and clients whose mailbox is on exchange 2013 will directly connect to 2013 server.
    Questions are, Is this the right way to migrate all the users to Exchange 2013?
    Will it affect the operation of existing Exchange 2007 server?

    Read the below blog on Client Connectivity in Exchange co-existence. There can't be better blog than this on this topic.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2014/03/12/client-connectivity-in-an-exchange-2013-coexistence-environment.aspx
    Clients connect to Exchange from Internal-Outlook, External-Outlook, Web & Active Sync.
    For Internal the configuration that you have mentioned should work as clients would get Autodiscover information from Active Directory (SCP) and get connected to right server.
    However, for external connectivity it makes sense to use External URL on Exchange 2013 servers (keep the Exchange exposed to Internet), configure legacy URL for exchange 2007 and use Exchange 2013 external URL for mailboxes that are Exchange 2007 and Exchange
    2013 for standardization.

  • Unable to send email to the users from Project Server Workflow

    Hello all,
    I am facing issues in sending emails to the users from the workflow in SharePoint Designer 2013.
    I am trying to send emails to valid users in a Project server 2013 Workflow by Email action.
    I have set up the SMTP server successfully, I have configured SMTP server successfully in IIS manager 6.0
    I have configured the outgoing e-mail settings in Central Administration successfully,
    I have configured the SMTP email settings for my web app in IIS manager as well.
    I have configured and synced the User Profile App with the eMail addresses from Active Directory as well.
    I have configured the Alerts and Reminders in Operational Policies of PWA settings as well.
    I can send the emails to the users successfully through Powershell.
    But when I am trying to Start a Task Process with a user in the workflow, the task process starts but it never sent an email notification. So I tested by using the Action Email, that also the user is unable to receive any email. But the Workflow is not giving
    any error also. The email sending is successful, but the user is unable to receive it. The workflow succeeds to next phase without any errors.
    So to cross verify I tried 'Alert Me' option on a list, but that also is not sending(or might be sending but the user is not receiving) the mail.
    What else should I do to solve this issue.
    Please help me.
    Thanks,
    Shanky

    Hello Paul,
    I tried editing the PWA instance as you said, but that also didn't help :(
    I even restarted the Project Server Service, but nothing is changed. 
    I tried creating a new workflow for a List and used send email there, but that also is not sending the mail :(
    How do I check where the issue is from ? I mean, whether the workflow is sending the mail and the mail server is not receiving? or whether the workflow is not sending the mail itself? how do I check this? Is there any way to log these details?
    Please help me regarding this issue, I am totally clueless how to proceed.
    Thanks,

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

  • Unable to sync photos from iPhoto

    Got an 8GB iPod Touch yesterday. I can sync everything except my photos from iPhoto. When I go to the Photo tab in iTunes, I place a tick in the check-box that says "Sync photos from:" and then I select iPhoto from the Combo-box. There are 2 radio buttons but only "All photos and albums" is available... "Selected Albums" is greyed out. The box below the radio buttons is also grey and has no entries.
    If I try to sync "All photos and albums" I get an error message on my computer that reads: "The iPod [iPod name] cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-50)."
    Software updates have all been applied, I have restored my iPod, have verified and fixed file permissions, etc. I have rebuilt the iPhoto library (Command-Option). Both iTunes and iPhoto have been working fine, with no other problems. I am using iLife '08 so I am using iPhoto '08 (version 7.1 (347)).
    Has anyone any experience with the problem? I'm thinking that my next step is to reinstall iPhoto/iTunes but I would much rather not have to do that... any suggestions?
    Regards,
    Bill
    P.S. I can sync photos from my desktop, just not from iPhoto '08.
    P.P.S. My 5th gen video iPod can sync photos from my iPhoto library!

    Hi Damon,
    Thanks for the update and the suggestion of trying a new user account... I don't know why that didn't occur to me. Well, you will not be too surprised to hear that with a new user account the photos synced no problem.
    That leaves me with an iPhoto library rebuild on my hands. The Apple provided rebuild didn't resolve my issue when I tried it last week. So I will need to do a manual rebuild... something which I have done once before but vowed never to do again as I lost hundreds of hours of work organising and tagging my photos... something which I have invested considerable time in recovering and don't want to lose them again.
    With Leopard around the corner, I will be performing a clean install of the new OS on a fresh HDD within the month, so I am going to recreate my iPhoto library that way... rather than invest time now only to see it wasted later.
    Thanks once again for the pointers to those Apple docs... most useful.
    Kind regards,
    William
