    Hi Srinivasa,
    I guess, you didn't completed the initial setup schemaprep and adprep before starting the installation. You can do it as follows:
    1. Open command Prompt as administrator and browse to the root of installation cd and run Setup.exe /PrepareSchema /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
    After finishing this,
    2. Setup.exe /PrepareAD /OrganizationName:"<organization name>" /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
    3. To prepare all domains within the forest run Setup.exe /PrepareAllDomains /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms. If you want to prepare a specific domain run Setup.exe /PrepareDomain:<FQDN of the domain you want to prepare> /IAcceptExchangeServerLicenseTerms
    4. Once you complete all of the 3 steps, install the pre-requisities for Exchange 2013
    5. Finally, run the setup program
    Hope this will help you

  • Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory: Could not find information about the local site

    Have an existing ex2010 sp3 organization.
    Could not run ex2013cu1 setup from my newly built 2012 server, getting the error in the subject line.  I used the command line to run the AD preparation steps successfully from my 2012 DC/GC, then tried to run setup again from the new 2012 server and
    still get the same error.  The error itself in the log is pretty useless:

  • Exchange 2013 cu3 setup fails with 'problem... validating the state of Active Directory... supplied credential... invalid'

    Windows Server 2013; Exchange Server 2013 with Cumulative Update 1
    Cannot install Cumulative Update 3 for Exchange Server 2013. It fails with
    [xxx] [0] [ERROR] Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory: Active Directory operation failed on . The supplied credential for 'XXX\Xxx' is invalid.  See the Exchange setup log for more information on this error.
    [xxx] [0] [ERROR] Active Directory operation failed on . The supplied credential for 'XXX\Xxx' is invalid.
    [xxx] [0] [ERROR] The supplied credential is invalid.
    (Crosses - XXX - replace original values.)
    I have found that a few others have experienced the same problem but found no solution, nor could come up with anything myself. If it is any hint, Event 40961 was logged in the Event Viewer around the same time on almost all installation attempts to be purely
    conincidental:
    The Security System could not establish a secured connection with the server
    ldap/xxx.xxx/[email protected] No authentication protocol was available.
    Both Windows Server and Exchange Server otherwise work OK, and do not recall any issues with Cumlative Update 1 installation.

    Hi vhr1,
    Based on my knowledge, the Event ID 40961 is a warning message.
    This behavior occurs when we restart the server that was promoted to a DC. The Windows Time service tries to authenticate before Directory Services has started.
    Found some resources for your reference even if the Exchange Version is mismatched:

    About the error message, "Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory: Active Directory operation failed on . The supplied credential for 'XXX\Xxx' is invalid."
    The error message InvalidCredentials means: the wrong password was supplied or the SASL credentials cannot be processed.

  • PowerShell Script Get the User's Active Directory Fully Qualified Login Name for Specific Locked Out Accounts

    I have a script which displays locked out accounts. It works great.
    I'd like to display the fully qualified Active Directory Login Name instead of the LastName, First Name:
    Example: Davis, Susan
    Want instead: Domain\Susan.Davis
    I'd also like to include an additional filter to look for only Domain\Susan.Davis OR Domain\Robin.Givens
    Here is my script:
    $objDomain = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry
    $objSearcher = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher
    $objSearcher.SearchRoot = $objDomain
    $objSearcher.PageSize = 1000
    $objSearcher.Filter = "(&(objectClass=User)(lockoutTime>=1))"
    $colProplist = "name","samaccountname"
    foreach ($i in $colPropList){$objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add($i) | out-null}
    $colResults = $objSearcher.FindAll()
    foreach ($objResult in $colResults) {
    $domainname = $objDomain.name
    $samaccountname = $objResult.Properties.samaccountname
    $user = [ADSI]"WinNT://$domainname/$samaccountname"
    $ADS_UF_LOCKOUT = 0x00000010
    if(($user.UserFlags.Value -band $ADS_UF_LOCKOUT) -eq $ADS_UF_LOCKOUT) {
    $objResult.Properties.name

    Sorry, I should have mentioned that the cmdlets I'm using are part of the Active Directory module. You'll need to install the RSAT (Win7+) to use them.
    If you'd rather stick with your DirectorySearcher methods instead of moving to the AD module, you can adjust your output by using something like this instead:
    if(($user.UserFlags.Value -band $ADS_UF_LOCKOUT) -eq $ADS_UF_LOCKOUT) {
    "$domainname\$($objResult.Properties.samaccountname)"
    $domainname might not be what you're expecting, just FYI.
    As for filtering, you can add to the if statement and check for your known usernames only.

  • What is the concept of Active directory in HFM

    Hi Experts
    What is the concept of Active directory in HFM?
    regards
    Dev

    Hi Dave,
    Not sure if this is your exact requirement... but might be helpful.
    The concept of Active directory is that users can login to HFM application with the windows credentials. To make that work you should first need to configure.
    Please refer the below link, page 23:

  • What is the Point of Active Directory/LDAP Specification?

    My college threw an interesting curve ball today and I couldn't give him a good enough answer. The question was simple 'What is the point of active directory'. Now I don't have a lot of exposure to active directory, but I thought I could easily answer. My argument was; If you have a group of objects its easy to look up attributes for those objects using active directory. For example, if you have a group in AD and you want to verify the users of that group you simply look up the member attribute of that group. However he argued, rightly so, that you can do that with a table in a database, why do that in AD. I couldn't give him a good enough answer and now I'm curious. Given the above example, why use AD over a database?
    To me AD is a way to manage a set of resources, whatever they are, by mapping them to objects that have however many attributes. But we could do that in a database, whats the point of AD? Why do you use AD?

    I come from a primarily database centric background. Just like life experience, it casts a certain perspective on problems. Database people solve things with databases. Directory people solve things with directories. Everyone has their perspective. It's not really about who's right and who's wrong. It's about perspective because people are most likely to go with what's familiar when given a problem. It's easy to have this conversation in a educational environment but when you're on the job it's about turf, schedules and careers. My latest job (in which this debate comes up a lot) has been about directories which has been a very enlightening experience because I've been given a gift of perspective. I can put on the directory hat and look at it from another angle.
    To get back to your professor's question. The answer is easy. LDAP (AD or other) is an application above a database. It has a data store behind it, in most cases we can just assume this is a database. So, in short, it's apples to oranges. But if we insist on comparing which makes the better juice, let's look at how we'd make a database like a directory. We could create a data model with an attributes table, an entries table and so on. We can deconstruct what LDAP data structures really are and implement each type as a table with FK/PK relationships and so on. It's sure to work because there are already so many products on the market doing this very thing. But think about the effort now. How are you going to add new users? A front-end? Stored procedures? Scripts? How are you going to keep someone from seeing things they shouldn't? You have to insert an object into all the right tables to ensure that your data is consistent and valid. In a pure database, you're trying to create ACLs on database rows. Now you're writing a full featured application with a lot of complexity. Given enough directory features, the database isn't going to be able to do everything without an external application.
    What is the point of LDAP? It's got hierarchy, ACLs, group of unique names functionality and things that are a layer of abstraction above the data store. I love databases but if you start designing out a directory server from scratch you'll realize it's far beyond comparing a user.ldif to a row in a user table. They are similar in appearance but different types of software.

  • Is there a way to authenticate an iPad to our WLAN using a digital certificate and then authorize the user in Active Directory?

    We want to authenticate both a device (iPad) to our corporate WLAN, but after authenticating the device we would also like to authentiate the user in Active Directory if possible.  Has anyone had any experience with this?

    You need to make sure that the server sends the "GeoTrust DV SSL CA" intermediate certificate.

  • I would like to create a wavy line (the zig zag feature is not exactly what I need here) to outline

    I would like to create a wavy line (the zig zag feature is not exactly what I need here) to outline a shape and then fill it with a solid color. Any ideas?
    This is approx what I want; however the undulation needs to be more round and less peaked

    Barbara,
    If you wish to create a gap between the wavy line and the underlying object, you may:
    1) Select the wavy line and Object>Expand Appearance;
    2) In the Appearance palette flyout tick New Stroke, drag it beneath the original stroke and increase the Stroke Weight as desired and change the colour to white.
    If you wish to make the gap transparent, you may:
    3) Select the wavy line and Object>Expand Appearance and Ungroup;
    4) Select the white path and the underlying object and in the Transparency palette flyout tick Make Opacity Mask with Clip unticked and Invert Mask ticked.
    It may be done in other ways, too.
