When users authenticate to read-only replica [ Identity synchronization]

Hello,
I have 2 sites: F and L. each site has a AD and LDAP. AD are replicated. LDAP are also replicated. Each one is the slave of the other. Idsync is installed on each site too.
All users servers are located in F. so when a user authenticates for the 1st time or after password change, he will challenge LDAP in F and this one is read-only (slave). The user will get invalid password
Whereas if I do for example ldapsearch + authentication on LDAP in L (this can't be done for users), the windows password gets updated in LDAP in L then LDAP in F (since F is a slave).
do you a solution for that?
thx

hi,
the replication is working between master and consumer:
If I change an attribute in ldap A for a user in site A, the attribute is replicated to ldap in site B.
If I change an attribute in ldap B for a user in site B, the attribute is replicated to ldap in site A.
If I change an attribute in ldap A for a user in site B, I get an error that this is a read-only replica. OK.
If I change an attribute in ldap B for a user in site A, I get an error that this is a read-only replica. OK.
The password is getting updated in the consumer following a password change on the master.
Where is the problem then? When a user in site A wants to change his password, his password is updated only in AD. ldap in site A (and IdSync) will not be aware of this change since the user in site A will login to servers (ldap clients) in site B and those servers are configured with ldap in site B. the ldap in site B is a slave for the subtree of users in site A. It stores then the password that is in ldap site A i.e. an invalid password.
I imagine a solution where servers (ldap clients) are configured with both ldap servers so that if a user from site A logins, the ldap client challenges the ldap server in site A. is this feasible?
any other solution?
thank you,

  • How to unlock account on read only replica (DS 5.2 p4)

    We are planning to turn on password policy to lock account after user failed to provide correct password after n times and the account will be lock forever unless administrator is to reset the password retry count.
    We implemented password policy with role and cos so that the policy only imposed on end users but not administrators. The password policy works fine.
    We understand that for DS 5.2 p.4, the password retry count is per instance, so the account lock is per instance. The problem we now encountered is at account unlock. We developed a function to reset the password retry count in order to unlock the account. It works fine in our test env. However, in production, we have 2 masters and 4 replicas and our replicas are all read only, all update is referred to the 2 masters. Now, when we update the master setting 0 to the password retry count, the reset is not populated to the replicas and when we try update the replica directly, the update get referred to the master and hence the attribute on the replica remains the same.
    Is there a way to unlock the account that got locked at the read only replica?

    As I recalled the way to unlock an account is to reset password using admin account. I think Ludovic once mentioned that in one of his post.
    If I were right here in this point, you should reset password which will be replicated to your read-only account and reset the counter to be 0.
    BTW, just found Ludovic's original post link:

  • Linked Server from SQL 2008 to Connect to 2012 read only replica never works

    I have two Production Database Servers
    1. SQLServer2008 (2 Nodes Cluster)
    2. SQLServer2012 with 2 read only replica (3 Nodes Cluster)
    I would like to draw a line here, We have routing table and URL working perfectly fine. 
    We have tested LINKED Server from 2012 Box to production Server by Specifying APPLICATIONINTENT = ReadOnly; it works perfectly fine, the routing is being used.
    When we create linked server from SQL Server 2008 Box (Please note we have installed SQL Server 2012 Client tools on this box and Restarted the Servers) using the below script
    USE [master]
    EXEC master.dbo.sp_dropserver @server=N'AGL1', @droplogins='droplogins'
    GO
    EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N'AGL1'
    ,@datasrc='AGL1'
    ,@provider='SQLNCLI11'
    ,@provstr='ApplicationIntent=ReadOnly;Database=AdventureWorks2012'
    Linked Server is created, Now when I run the Query 
    exec ('select @@servername') at AGL1
    It always brings the Primary READ/WRITE node name only, after lots of research I found that, this linked Server is always using SQL Native Client 10.0 only, even after creating Linked Server using SNC 11, That is the reason it is not going to routing
    table. Its always connecting to Primary node.
    Below is the way I found it, on 2012 Production Server I executed below Query
    SELECT session_id, protocol_type, driver_version = 
    CASE SUBSTRING(CAST(protocol_version AS BINARY(4)), 1,1)
    WHEN 0x70 THEN 'SQL Server 7.0'
    WHEN 0x71 THEN 'SQL Server 2000'
    WHEN 0x72 THEN 'SQL Server 2005'
    WHEN 0x73 THEN 'SQL Server 2008'
    ELSE 'SQL Server 2012' 
    END,client_net_address ,client_tcp_port,local_tcp_port ,T.text
    FROM sys.dm_exec_connections
    CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(most_recent_sql_handle) AS T
    The help is taken from msdn (Link Provided below) for the above Query
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd339982.aspx
    and I found it always uses SQL Server 2008 SNC.
    My Question is, is there a way to force SQL Server to use SQL Server Native Client 11.
    Has anyone tried this setup?
    Thank you in advance.

    Unfortunately no, there is no other way of forcing it without restart. The SQL Server stack has no idea of the existing Native Client as it booted prior its installation. And you cannot force "DLL reload" without proper service restart.

    Hi,
    The error is because either the primary database or the secondary database is configured as read only and the callback to create the secondary keys is null. A quick glance of the code, it appears as if you did not set up the secondary database correctly. In the Getting Started Guide for JAVA API chap 10, we have detailed information on what needs to be done as well as a code example. Please refer to http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/gsg/JAVA/index.html and look for Chap 10.

  • DSplugin psw on read-only replica

    I am running a Directory Server 6.3 which is a master to 2 read-only consumers (one is DS 6.3, one is DS 5.2). Replication is working to both consumers.
    On the master server, I have ISW for Windows 6.0.
    I am able to sync passwords from AD to the master DS. That is working fine. When a user changes their password in AD; then authenticates against the master DS server, the new password is pulled from AD.
    I am having trouble when a password is changed on AD and the user tries to authenticate to the read-only replia. They get an Authentication error. I think I have the DS plugin installed on both of my read-only servers. I can not figure out why they won't send the request to the master server to get the password from AD. pswvalidate does get set to True.
    My master server has 2 interfaces (master-if1 and master-if2) and the 6.3 readonly replica can only reach master-if2.

    Is there any experience in an environment with a master DS (6.3) server, read-only consumer servers and Identity Synchronization for Windows?
    I am not able to get authentication queries to my ro consumers to poll the master DS which in turns pulls the new password from AD.

  • Restricting certain users groups to read only for certain folders

    Hi
    I'm not sure if this is the correct forum, but hey, hopefully someone might now the answer or direct me to the correct one.
    I'm writing a VB program to amend ACLs for specific user groups.
    Effectively, I make all prior year folders read only, whereas the default for the group is Modify, Delete etc.  This means they can continue to work in the "new year folders", but historic years is List/read only.
    I've got to the point the program does everything I want, i.e. stops folder creation7deletion, file & folder name changes, copying for the historic years, but does not prevent deletion of files in the folder.  Effectively I set Deny access on the
    historic folders.
    Testing using the Windows GUI would appear to resolve the problem is I change the Deny Special Permission (for the group) from "This folder only" to "This folder & files".
    Question then is how to I set this in VB, the default appearing to be "This folder only"
    Here's extract of my code
    Thanks
    IfvarDirectoryName.IndexOf("\"&
    Date.Now.Year) = -1
    Then
                FileAcl3.AddAccessRule(

                FileAcl3.RemoveAccessRule(

                FileAcl3.RemoveAccessRule(

    Your right, when I added the flags I got the following error at execution
    {"No flags can be set. Parameter name: inheritanceFlags"}
    I've developed a work around, which gives me exactly - subject to further testing - what I want.  I simply mark each file in the relevant folders with a Deny Delete option.
    I will however explore the DirectorySecurity class option, but initial review of the www seems a little shy on VB examples.
    Thanks
    Perry
    You should be able to use FileSecurity and DirectorySecurity the same way (they have identical methods). Since this is a scripting forum, I'll provide a PowerShell example (which is fairly close to C# and VB; they all use the exact same classes):
    $varDirectoryName = "c:\folder"
    $GroupAdmin = "Admin Group"
    $FileInfo3 = New-Object System.IO.DirectoryInfo $varDirectoryName
    $FileAcl3 = $FileInfo3.GetAccessControl()
    $FileAcl3.AddAccessRule((New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule (
    $GroupAdmin,
    [System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemRights]::Modify,
    ([System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags]::ContainerInherit -bor [System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags]::ObjectInherit),
    [System.Security.AccessControl.PropagationFlags]::None,
    [System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlType]::Allow
    $FileInfo3.SetAccessControl($FileAcl3)
    I could have taken a lot of shortcuts when using the enumerations, but I think keeping it verbose helps show how similar the code can be.
    Does that make sense?

  • Server 2003: make user template with read-only access for shared folders

    I have need to make a type of user (like Administrator, Power User, Mobile User, User, etc.) that has read-only acess to shared folders. So when I make a new user and assign the "read-only user" template I wish to have, the user can open files
    in the shared folders on the server, but not edit, save or delete files. Other users can and should remain able to edit, save & delete.
    Before I dig in, is this even possible?

    You could create a Group called ReadOnly, and set that to have Read on the ACLs of the relevant files or folders.
    Make that template user a member of that group.
    As long as they are not also a member of another group that gives them higher permissions, this would work.
    Otherwise set the ReadOnly group to deny Write, which would over ride any other permission set.
    So,
    Folder A
    ACL:
    ReadOnly : R
    Users: Read/Write
    If a user is a member of Users & ReadOnly, they would get read/write to Folder A. As permissions are cumulative.
    If you did the following:
    Folder A
    ACL:
    ReadOnly : R
    ReadOnly: Deny Write
    Users: Read/Write
    The users in ReadOnly would be denied write, as it overrides the cumulative permissions.

  • SQL Server 2012 - Wat Is The Best Solution For Creating a Read Only Replicated/AlwaysOn Database

    Hi there I was wondering if someone may have a best recommendation for the following requirement I have with regards setting up a third database server for reporting?
    Current Setup
    SQL Server 2012 Enterprise setup at two sites (Site A & Site B).
    Configured to use AlwaysOn Availability groups for HA and DR.
    Installed on Windows 2012 Servers.
    This is all working and failover works fine and no issues. So…
    Requirement
    A third server needs to be added for the purpose of reporting, to be located on another site (Site C) possibly in another domain. This server needs to have a replicated read only copy of the live database from site A or Site B, whichever is in use. The Site
    C reporting database should be as up-to-date to the Site A or Site B database as possible – preferably within a few seconds anyway….
    Solution - What I believe are available to me
    I believe I can use AlwaysOn and create a ReadOnly replica for the Site C. If so do I assume Site C needs to have the Enterprise version of SQL server i.e. to match Site A & Site B?
    Using log shipping which if I am correct means the Site C does not need to be an Enterprise version.
    Any help on the best solution for this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, Steve

    for always on - all nodes should be part of one windows cluster..if there site C is on different domain - I do not think it works.
    Logshipping works --as long as the sql on site C is is same or higher version(sql 2012 or above).  you can only do read only.
    IMHo, if you can make site C in the same domain then, Always is better solution else log shipping
    also, if your database has enterprise level features such as - partitonin, data compression -- you cannot restore the database on lower editions- so you need to have enterprise edition.
    Hope it Helps!!

  • Beginner User:  Locking (making read only after data entry) a single field after selecting date

    Hello, I am a beginner user trying to create a form using Adobe Livecycle.  One of the fields I would like to make read only/protect it/password protect it after a user selects the date.   For example, I select August 17, 2010 as the date. After I select it, I would like that field to be read only or protected so that another user can not edit it. 
    I am a complete novice using XML or codes.  I'm learning alot from these boards though.    I know its probably simple.
    Any help is appreciated.

    The attached locks a text field if the date chosen is "08-17-2010". If it is not the text field is accessible.

  • Error when mapping drive with read only permissions - unc path works fine

    Hello,
    we have user shares that we map to drive H:. the shares are in the form \\server\user\<loginname>. The shares have full permission and the files and folders have full permission for the user. To be clear, the shared folder is \\server\user. <loginname>
    are several folders, one for each user.
    We use a vb script to check if a user stores too much data and if yes, we set the permissions for the user to read only and delete (with icacls).
    Unfortunately, it this happens, we cannot map the drive anymore on Windows 7 (on Windows XP it works fine). The error is "Permission denied". Interestingly, the user can still open the share with the unc - path.
    Is there anything I can do, so that the user still has his drive mapped? Most user are not tech savvy enough to open their share with the unc - path.
    Thank You,
    Peter

    Please disable User Account Control in windows 7 to see if you can see the map drive. In the meantime, I suggest to use GPP instead of logon script to map drive.

  • Strange behavior when Popup LOVs has read-only condition and Bug Report

    Hi,
    I observed an inconsistent behavior of Popup LOVs when the read-only condition is true. In that case the defined lov query is used to map the internal value of the page item to the display value defined in the lov query.
    What is the reason for this behavior? Because if the Popup LOV is in "edit mode" the page item value is just displayed without looking up the display value. The display value is just used for the popup lov. Mapping the value is normally a behavior of the popup key lov.
    -> The result is that different values are displayed if the page item is in edit or read-only mode. That's not really the behavior someone would expect.
    BTW, there seems to be a bug with "Display Extra Values" set to "Yes" in the case read-only is true. If the lookup doesn't return a value it just displays [ ], but because the property is set to yes it should display the value. The Popup Key Lov has the same bug.
    Thanks for bringing some light into that behavior

    Patrick,
    I've added your comments to a task already in our queue to examine all item types for correct behavior in read-only mode. I've noticed the quirks with display extra values also.
    By the way, still interested in your thoughts re: Re: Bug Report: Images broke when using get_blob_file_src and not authentic .
