  • Migrate Active Directory 2003 to 2012 R2 and Exchange Server 2007 to 2013.

    My question is which one need to migration first. Active Directory 2003 to 2012 R2 and FFL & DFL or Exchange Server 2007 to 2013.
    Md. Ramin Hossain

    My question is which one need to migration first. Active Directory 2003 to 2012 R2 and FFL & DFL or Exchange Server 2007 to 2013.
    Domain. For Exchange installation and upgrading to 2013, you need to make sure that your domain controllers can understand attributes of exchange 2013. Besides if you have DC/Exch on the same server which is 2003 is not supported. Because Windows Server
    2003 is not supported.
    Migrate your domain to at least 2008 R2 and then proceed with Exchange 2013.

  • Integration of sap R/3 (4.7) and Microsoft active directory (2003)

    Hi All,
    I would like to know integration of sap R/3 (4.7) and Microsoft active directory (2003) and also SAP EP and Microsoft active directory. I have been working as a ep consultant with a local bank. I am new for this integration work, So please kindly provide me the steps for integrating these both directories.

  • Active Directory 2003 and Sun One Directory Server 5.2

    I just installed Sun One Directory Server 5.2 on a Linux machine. I want to configure LDAP on that machine so that it can be authenticated on Active Directory 2003. How do I go about doing this?

    Active Directory server is a "directory server" (and kerberos server.) If your linux client authenticates against Active Directory it doesn't have to involve the Sun Directory Server at all. You have several general approaches you could investigate:
    1. Linux client gets accounts and and authentication via LDAP from Active Directory
    If you use AD to handle unix LDAP authentication (opt 1) you may need to extend schema in AD to add the unix password field. I haven't tried it yet, but hope to.
    2. Linux client gets accounts from AD LDAP and authorization from AD Kerberos.
    There should be docs on support.microsoft.com on enabling kerberos support for non-Win clients.
    3. Linux client (with samba client installed, with winbind or pam_smb to support unix level services) gets accounts and authentication as a "Windows" client from Active directory "Windows server"
    Check the samba.org docn or forums- I think this is a pretty common solution.
    4. Linux client gets account information from Sun Directory server but uses kerberos (against active directory) for authentication.
    There should be docs on support.microsoft.com on enabling kerberos support for non-Win clients.
    5 Linux client gets account and authorization from Sun Directory server, which the sun Directory server configured to use Active Directory as a Kerberos server.
    Probably incredibly complex.

  • Autheticating useing Cisco ACS 4.2 integrated with Active Directory 2003

    How do i check that users are Autheticated useing Cisco ACS 4.2 integrated with Active Directory 2003, any one help me in this thanks

    You can't actually see the user's membership from ACS. All you can do, create group-mapping under external database >> group mapping section. This would give you an option to map external (AD) group with an Internal group.The group memberrship need to be modified under Active Directory.
    Once user is succussfully authenticated and learned as a dynamic user in ACS user setup database, it would be mapped with an ACS internal group based on group mapping we did.
    Let me know if you have any doubts.

  • Active Directory: 2003 to 2012 R2 Upgrade across single forest with child domains

    I just have a quick questions about something that should be simple. We will be upgrading our current domain from Windows 2003 functionality to Windows 2012 R2.  This forest has domain and two child domains.  I have two questions.  Since we
    have to do this in a few steps in order to get up to 2012 functionality I am wondering where is it consider best practice to start?  In the Root (top level) domain of the forest or in one of the child domains?  I want to say the root (top level)
    domain is where I would place my first Windows 2012 R2 box and promote it to a domain controller.  Then move to the child domains one the root domain controllers have all be replaced with Server 2012.
    Kristopher Turner | Not the brightest bulb but by far not the dimmest bulb.

    Yes.  We are working with the client to migrate any dependencies off these 3 NT legacy domains.  We will be able to decommission 2 of the 3 without any issues.  However, they still have an old NT box running SQL 6.5 databases for a application
    still in production.  Yes, they are very aware that NT isn't supported, that that version of SQL isn't supported, and that this will hold up their upgrade.
    Our plans for them will be to deploy all new Windows Server 2012 R2 domain controllers but keep the domain and the forest functionality at 2003 in order to support that final NT Legacy domain until they can get that application migrated.
    Once that NT domain is decommissioned then we can raise the functionality of the rest of their domains from 2003 to 2012 R2.

  • Active directory integration SharePoint Project server 2013

    Hello all, Looking for a definitive answer.  Our environment runs in Active Directory 2003. We are looking into upgrading our Sharepoint and Project Server from 2007 to 2013.  Is it a true statement that SharePoint 2013 will not run in a 2003
    Active Directory environment. 

    AD 2003 with SP2 is supported

  • Active Directory Not Syncing Correctly in ES2

    Hello,
    We had our Active Directory 2003 synced up using Adobe Livecycle ES.  There would be around 30,000 users that would be synced and this would take around 3 - 4 1/2 minutes to run.  This worked perfectly for us for the past half of a year or so.
    Last week we upgraded to ES2 and moved all of our processes over.  We removed ES and did a fresh install of ES2.  Everything seems to be working fine now except the Active Directory isn't syncing properly.  When we run the sync, different numbers of users will be fetched.  Sometimes it's around three thousand, sometimes seven thousand, sometimes ten thousand, but it never seems to get through them all.  In the server log it does say that the directory synchronization completed successfully though even though the number fetched is changing.  We made sure the settings are exactly the same as they were before, and we even tried a few different settings, but it still doesn't get all the users.  For testing purposes, we tried changing the search filter to pick specific people that aren't showing up during the normal sync and it will show up fine, so I'm wondering if there is something stopping it from going all the way through?
    We also have another enterprise domain connected which has around 2,000 users on it and have not had this problem with it.
    Here are some of the sync statistics from the past few syncs: (The active directory name has been stripped for security purposes).  If you need any more information please feel free to ask.  We would like to have this resolved as soon as possible.

    We do have quite a few that are missing an attribute, specifically:
    2010-06-06 21:05:47,579 WARN  [com.adobe.idp.um.businesslogic.synch.LdapHelper] Record [xxxx] is missing required attribute [objectSID] for canonicalName i.e uniqueIdentifier field
    This is something that was on our old system as well:
    2010-05-25 03:02:35,559 INFO  [com.adobe.idp.um.provider.directoryservices.LDAPDirectoryPrincipalProviderImpl] UserM:: [Thread Hashcode: 3010887] This record is missing a required attribute and cannot be used. Specifically CanonicalName is null. Common Name: xxxx
    We have many users in our active directory with just email accounts so that users are able to search for a name and find the email address in outlook.  I have checked through these and they look fine (though there are fewer entries in ES2 since there are fewer users being fetched).
    As for the locked users, here is what we received:
    2010-06-06 21:05:47,579 INFO  [com.adobe.idp.um.businesslogic.synch.LdapPrincipalProvider] Found [1257] locked users while synching. These users were ignored
    This sounds about right for the amount of users that were fetched. 
    If you have any more questions or ideas, please let us know.  We would like to have this resolved as soon as possible.  Thanks.

  • Call Manager 9.1 Active Directory Question(s)

    Hello All!
    Firstly let me establish that I am not an administrator of our VoIP system however I do manage the Server side of our network.  We are in the process of planning an Active Directory upgrade and I'm having some difficulty getting a question answered about the requirements for  Call Manager.  We are at version 9.1 of Call Manager currently with our Active Directory version at 2003 R2.  We are planning to upgrade to Active Directory version 2008 R2 (functional level) however we would like to use Server 2012 R2 as the OS for our AD servers.  From a Microsoft standpoint this is a valid solution, it's built into Active Directory that you can run at different "functional levels" of AD on higher server operating systems.  Any Call Manager applications that require a Windows operating system would run on whatever works for that (2003 or 2008 etc).  Can we use Server 2012 R2 as the Domain Controller operating system while running at 2008 R2 functional level for Active Directory and still retain our Cisco support?

    Hi Allen,
    This is from Cisco site (you already may have seen this), though it talk about the directory services but it is specifically mentioned 2008. 2012 may work and specially as you are saying with functional level set to 2008 shouldn't have any issues. But Cisco have not tested that and you may get into support issues (if any).
    Its completely tested and supported with CUCM 10.X
    Version 9:
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/admin/9_0_1/ccmsys/CUCM_BK_CD2F83FA_00_cucm-system-guide-90/CUCM_BK_CD2F83FA_00_system-guide_chapter_010011.html#CUCM_TK_C4E65231_00
    Configure LDAP directory
    If you want to do so, you can add users from your corporate directory to the Cisco Unified Communications Manager database by synchronizing the user data to the database. Cisco Unified Communications Manager allows synchronization from the following directories to the database:
    Microsoft Active Directory 2000
    Microsoft Active Directory 2003
    Microsoft Active Directory 2008
    Microsoft Active Directory Application Mode 2003
    Microsoft Lightweight Directory Services 2008
    iPlanet Directory Server 5.1
    Sun ONE Directory Server 5.2
    Sun ONE Directory Server 6.x

  • MS Active Directory 2008 as UME datasource for AS Java

    Hello,
    We are running SAP EP on top of a SAP AS Java using LDAP certification, so users
    from MS Active Directory 2003 domain are trusted by the Portal
    I've now a problem with the version upgrade of MS Active Directory from 2003 to 2008,
    it seems only SAP AS ABAP supports MS AD 2008, and our instance is JAVA only
    Note 983808 - "Certified LDAP servers" also confirm this
    Do you know if AD 2008 is supported, if any note has been released about this and
    any document to help me wiith this issue?
    thanks in advance!
    Rafael

    Hi Patrick, thanks for the answer
    I checked the note and it refers about Windows 2008 and a scenario with SSO, that's not our case.
    We just have AD as a LDAP UME datasource, users must still pass user and password which
    is then checked and then login is authorized
    you mentioned AD 2008 is supported for Netweaver AS Java, could you send me any document
    or note with procedures or anything for configuring it ?
    kind regards,
    Rafael

  • SQL Server 2000\2005 compatibility with Active Directory 2012

    Hi All,
    We are currently using Active Directory 2003 and will be upgrading to AD 2012.  I'm trying to determine if there is any known compatibility issues when running older versions of SQL Server (2000 and 2005) when upgrading to AD 2012.   I've
    read forums from when others went from AD 2003 to AD 2008 and didn't experience any issues.  We have the newer versions of SQL but I'm not too concerned about these.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated?   Has anyone been through
    this process. 
    Thanks,

    Hi CraftsmanRobert,
    Based on my understanding, you used Active Directory 2003, then it would be upgraded to Active Directory 2012. You wanted to run older versions of SQL Server (2000 and 2005) with Active Directory 2012.
    Firstly, there can be a compatibility problem when run older version with Active Directory 2012. SQL Server 2005 (the release version and service packs) and earlier versions of SQL Server are not supported on Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012,
    Windows 8.1, or Windows 8. For more information, please refer to this article: How to use SQL Server in Windows and Windows Server environments (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2681562/en-us).
    Besides, Microsoft doesn’t provide assisted support for SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 already. Please upgrade the existing instance of SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 to a new version like SQL Server 2012. You can download SQL Server 2012 Express
    from this link:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29062.

  • Active Directory 2008 and Crystal Reporting

    Hello,
    My company is planning to upgrade to Active Directory 2008 R2. But before we do so, we must understand how our servers & applications interact/work with Active Directory 2008 R2. Could you please answer the following questions in regards to your application Crystal Reporting (version 10):
    1.     How does Crystal Reporting interact with Active Directory (AD)?
    2.     Is there a specific domain controller hardcoded with Crystal Reporting ?
    3.     Does Crystal Reporting support Active Directory 2008 R2?
    Your assistance and timely response with this matter is very much appreciated. Thank you.
    - Peter

    Hi Peter,
    Crystal Reports is a standalone install on the local Work Station. AD won't affect it. Unless there is some info you are telling us about how you access CR?
    Thank you

  • Apple Mail Server and Active Directory

    Has anyone had any luck in using Active Directory (2003) as the directory service with an Apple Mail Server? We're testing it out, but we're unable to enable mail services for users on teh Mac server.
    If anyone has tried this and can offer up some tips, I'd be grateful!
    Dell Latitude D620   Other OS  

    Me too!
    I also discovered that Mac users who have valid accounts in AD 2003 can't have an email account in WGM enabled for them (WGM acts like its enabling email but then reverts back to "disabled"). I assume the account must be configured in the Active Directory Users and Groups admin tool before it can be enabled in WGM on the OS X email server, but I havent had any luck getting it to work yet.
