Windows 7 PC locking out domain user in Windows Server 2008r2 domain

I have reviewed dozens of related questions, but none have given me an answer that works on this situation.
We replaced an XP desktop with a Windows 7 desktop. It keeps locking out just user(of over 25 migrated). I have disabled the Windows 7 credentials, made sure the patches were in place, there are no other devices-wireless or otherwise.
The users pc has a kvm attached for another system, we have a Windows 2008r2 server. The user does not save any passwords, I have make changes recommended in the registry. They do have a couple mapped drives. Logs show that it is the users
pc that is causing the lockout, but much of the users time they are on the other system. We have 4 other users that have the exact same setup but are not having any issues. It happens several times a day and I must unlock their password on the
ad. Sometimes if we wait 45 min or so it will unlock itself. Strange considering settings lockout user after 5 bad passwords and lock them out for 120 minutes.
I have tried virtually everything I have read relating to this issue in Win7, 2008r2.
User is getting frustrated and so am I!.
Thank you.

Trying to connect to a Windows share locks out users Windows account.

Right then I’m coming to the end of my tether !!!
I've got a user who needs to access a share on a Windows server. All is well and the user gets the challenge prompt but instead of letting him in it constantly challenges him locking out his windows account.
Now the share is on a DC so i cant make him a local Admin and the only way i can get this working is to have him in the domain admin group which is NOT the way forward, so i'm looking at permissions i guess.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to fix this .. Arhhhh

The Seagate drive at Amazon should work fine.

Visual Studio Test Controller recovery locks out the user domain account, cannot log into PC

On the recovery tab of the Visual studio Test controller Services properties dialog, there are three recovery settings:
First Failure, Second failure and Subsequent failures. The default settings for these options is to "Restart the Service". I changed my domain password this morning, restared the PC and could not log in because the Visual Studio Test Controller
service tried to restart with the wrong credentials in an infinite loop. This resulted in my account with the domain controller getting locked out. The delay between service restarts was very quick and I could not login and stop the service. The kind admin
fellow logged in to the PC and changed the service settings.
Is there a place where the recovery service restart interval can be changed to prevent this situation?

Hi bcautest1,
>>I changed my domain password this morning, restared the PC and could not log in because the Visual Studio Test Controller service tried to restart with the wrong credentials in an infinite loop. This resulted in my account with the domain controller
getting locked out.
You said that you couldn't log in, do you mean that you couldn't log in your machine or others?
If you change the domain password, generally we could open the Test Controller configuration and change the logon account for this service.
But if you mean that you couldn't log in your windows now, I'm afraid that it is not the test controller and Agent issue, it would be the windows issue, because it still has this issue even if you use other servers.

Windows Vista Locks out when plugging in Nano 3g with iTunes 8.0

When I plug in my ipod Nano 3g after updating to iTunes 8.0...it locks out my Windows Vista and terminates Windows session. System automatically restarts and will not restart if the iPod remains connected. 5 r's of troubleshooting do not help...I get the same problem. I would probably like to go back to the previous version of iTunes I had, but not sure which one I had? 7.6?

I have the same problem. as soon as I plug my ipod in, I get a blue screen of death., I've tried everything. My 2g nano works fine. tried the umpteen r's to no avail. I hope someone knows what is going on.

Hi,
Did it work correctly before when logging in with domain user account? If so, please try opening Control Panel > Credential Manager and remove the cached credential entry of the Outlook account, and then restart Outlook to test the issue again.
See:

Locking out focus to a window temporarily

I've created a top level window (JFrame) apart from my main application window which is also a JFrame. When I display this new window, I want to prevent the user from using any of the components in the main application window until I hide this new window again.
Is there a simple way to do this with just one or two statements?

Is one free to place anything they want in a modal
dialog box?
I have a JList and some custom buttons.Yes, it is very similar to a JFrame. Read the
tutorial, there are several examples there.What I mean is, you add things to a JDialog just as you would add them to a JFrame.

Windows 7 pro client cannot access folders on server 2003 domain server

I added a windows 7 64 bit client to a server 2003 32 bit domain 3 weeks ago and file sharing was working fine until today, 5/4/12. Now, when trying to access shared folders that reside on the server,
I get the following "access denied" message:
[…folder…] is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.
The user name could not be found.
Strangely enough...
The windows 7 client
can open shared folders that reside on the XP clients in the domain
All the XP clients in the domain can access the server 2003 folders
All the XP clients and the server 2003 machine can access shared folders and printers on the windows 7 client.
The windows 7 client can ping the server 2003 machine and vice versa
I can “see” the server in my network list, but when I click on it, I get the same “access denied” message listed above.
So... the only problem is that the windows 7 client cannot access folders that reside on the windows server 2003 machine. There must be some sharing setting that got changed
by a recent windows update.
Here is what I have done/verified so far on the windows 7 client:
In advanced sharing settings for Home/Work, Public and Domain profiles:
network discovery is enabled
file and print sharing is enabled
use user accounts and passwords to connect to other computers is selected (I also tried allowing windows to manage homegroup connections instead, but the problem remained.)
40 -56 bit encryption is enabled
In “gpedit.msc” Local Policies/Security Settings:
enabled the following policies:
Network access: Allow anonymous SID/name translation
Network access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users
disabled the following policies:
Network access: Restrict anonymous access to Named Pipes and Shares
Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts
Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts and shares
What am I missing? Are there policies on the server that need to be adjusted?
Please help! My business is crippled if I cannot access server files from this workstation. Thank you in advance.

Windows Server 2012 as NTP Server for Windows Server 2008R2 Domain Controller

We have one domain with 3 Windows Server 2008R2 DC's. Our Edge router is configured to get the time from the internet, and was our timesource for the PDC emulator. But lately we have migrated our major routers to Cisco IOS15, and now the timeservice on the
PDCe is unable to fetch the time. This is a known bug, as you can read here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/ja-JP/b16de048-8642-4799-b85a-ad092e17dd47/windows-server-2012-ntp-version-compatibility
Now I've found out that Windows Server 2012 does sync with the router. That's our DirSync server, and is in the same VLAN as our DC's. So I thought: I'll set up the Windows Server 2012 as new timeserver, so our PDCe can sync with that server. (Compony
policy is that DC's don't talk to the internet). Everything seems alright.
I've set:
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:<IP of router>,0x8 /syncfromflags:manual
w32tm /config /reliable:yes
Changed the registry with:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CC\SERVICES\W32TIME\TIMEPROVIDERS\NTPSERVER - Enabled:1
HKLM\SYSTEM\CC\SERVICES\W32TIME\Config - AnnounceFlags:A
And stopped and started the W32Time service. I can see that the Windows 2012 server is fetching the correct time, and checked with NBTSTAT -NA that it's listening on port 123.
But our PDCe doesn't sync. (also changed the config so it has the 2012 server as timesource). Get the EventID 47:
Time Provider NtpClient: No valid response has been received from manually configured peer <w2012server> after 8 attempts to contact it. This peer will be discarded as a time source and NtpClient will attempt to discover a new peer with this DNS
name. The error was: The peer is unreachable.
What more can I try?

It only shows me the 3 DC's:
DC04.domain.local *** PDC ***[[::1]:123]:
    ICMP: 0ms delay
    NTP: +0.0000000s offset from DC04.domain.local
        RefID: 'LOCL' [0x4C434F4C]
        Stratum: 1
DC03.domain.local[10.x.x.x:123]:
    ICMP: 0ms delay
    NTP: -0.0097028s offset from DC04.domain.local
        RefID: DC04.domain.local [10.x.x.x]
        Stratum: 2
DC05.domain.local[10.x.x.x:123]:
    ICMP: 0ms delay
    NTP: -0.0127883s offset from DC04.domain.local
        RefID: W8D-VW-DC04.domain.local [10.x.x.x]
        Stratum: 2
Warning:
Reverse name resolution is best effort. It may not be
correct since RefID field in time packets differs across
NTP implementations and may not be using IP addresses.

How an Admin user log into a lock out standard user account?

I remember that I was able to override the access to the standard account user when the standard user has the screen lock out. This appear to be missing in Lion. Has anyone knows how to do this in Lion? Thanks.

From my personal experience I can say that at times, four folders (i guess Assets is one of them) somehow get left in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 11 Organizer folder.
I delete them and restart my system.. and reinstallation works fine. If that's the case with you, you can try it.
CS Cleaner tool might also help.
Thanks

User settings reset and locked out of user folders ! How do I retreive?

Hi everyone,
I'm sure a number of people here on the forums have come across the problem with the blue tint that appears every now and then. It usually appears when connecting an external monitor after the you come back from the screen saver.
Yesterday it happened for the first time without an external monitor connected. I have found a number of sites that have suggested using the command 'sudo chmod 664 *' within the Terminal. I have used it a couple of times to fix this problem but it did not work hence the reason it happened yesterday without a monitor connected. When I did use this command previously I first entered
cd /library/colorsync/profiles/display
When i did it for this occassion i forgot to enter the display folder first.
After this I did a restart and all my user settings were reset and I was locked out of all my user folders. I lost all my desktop settings and everything was back to when I first started my computer.
I did some hunting and found the command 'sudo chmod 777'. I tried this then did a reset and my desktop background returned and the folders were unlocked.
What I want to know is if this is the correct command to bring everything back to normal?
My user permissions in terminal are listed below
Using the command sudo chmod 664 *

Does this look correct ??
Any help would be great thanks

I assume this access is open to everyone when I connecto any wireless network
No necessarily, it depends whether you just changed your home folders and nothing else.
But just your home folders present a problems as they should have extended attributes which are now removed. More on that later.
Using one chmod to a directory affects all equally, though the files may have individually different permissions.
I don't know how extensively you have altered the modes permissions, but from what you have shown in your first post your Home folders are incorrect.
For your home folder, which is the default location when you start Terminal, and I dont think you have strayed from there, all the listings, except Parallels are folders, prefaced with the letter d. for folder.
On my machine, for example, the pattern for the home folders all show
drwx------@ 5 xxxxxx staff 170 25 Jun 06:07 Desktop
normally that would be chmod 700 Desktop which will get you
drwx------
but note the @ which shows an extended attribute or ACL in Leopard.
to write the ACL shown as @
You will need to read
man chmod about ACL MANIPULATION OPTIONS
Personally, I think that playing around with chmod without a backup was not a good idea, and I wonder if your ambition has exceeded your knowledge. Sorry if that sounds tough, but a possible Archive and Install may be your safest path I think because what you have messed with was no small oops with a simple fix.
You could just change those home folders to chmod 700 and see how it goes without the attribute, or bite the bullet and do an Archive and Install.
I do not run parallels and so have no idea what is permissions should be.
That Time capsule is starting to look pretty good now

Locked out all users

I changed the values of some of the mandatory attributes of the root dn under which users were defined and this has caused all users except orcladmin to be locked out. When I try to add new users, it gives me the error -
Not willing to perform because of one of these reasons
1. OID is slow
2. OID is down
3. not enough privileges
Is there a way to restore the users login?
thanks

have u tried unlocking passwords
and that doesnt work? one thing you can
do is if you have a backup of your ASDB
you should be able to do a restore of that
back to before you changed things...

Puzzled - parent domain user as administrator in child domain cannot add printer

I've got a bare domain at the forest with 3 users and several "child" domains. I'm trying to set it up so that the user (let's call it EA-Service) in the forest can do administrative work in each of the sub domains without having to log on to the various
domains as each domain's domain administrator. There are a handful of these domains at this time, but as we pick up more accounts (think hosting), we expect the number of domains to reach the hundreds. I don't want hundreds of domain accounts
to track.
I thought adding EA-Service to a forest group called EA-Universal and adding EA-Universal to Builtin\Administrators on each of the domain controllers would give me administrator access on each of the domains.
I spent a frustrating two days trying to add an internet printer's driver using EA-Service on one of the child domains and it kept failing (message wasn't clear). Today I said, What the Heck, logon with my domain admin account on the child domain and
try. It worked. I dropped the printer and then logged out and back in with my EA-Service account and I couldn't do it. Clearly Builtin\Administrator isn't everything on a DC.
What right, privilege, or piece of arcane magic did the domain administrator account have that the EA-Service account did not? And how can I give that special whatever-it-might-be to my EA-Service account?
How can I determine exactly what rights & privileges a particular userid on a machine has? I could then compare the two sets of rights and see what was different.
I really need to have a super-duper-administrator account to do various maintenance tasks and I don't want to have to use each domain's Admin account to do it.
Can y'all help me?

I had an entire post built that took me all day with interruptions and poof, it's gone. Rats. Here is my second attempt:
Assign permission on the resource using DL group.
This last one is the one I'm having trouble with.
I have to admint that I'm feeling very stupid about this whole thing. Everyone seems to understand it completely. I have read many posts and believe I understand them, but I'm not getting something as I've certainly not got it to work.
I have seen some excellent writeup by Ace, Awinish, Meinolf that have really helped me understand the RBAC/AGUDLP/IGDLA. This
post by Ace Fekay is one such example among others. I have read about the different group types and scopes. I have read about rights, privileges and permissions. I believe I understand them. I've worked in security since IBM's
RACF which is also RBAC.
The problem is just what permissions need to be given to DA-DomainLocal (the group to which EA-Service, the forest user, ultimately belongs) so that its members have the same abilities as DA-Service (a domain administrator account on a child domain)?
Clearly adding to Administrators on the child AD is insufficient as the EA-Service ID was directly added to it and it could not add a printer while DA-Service could. EA-Service is also a member of the Enterprise Admins group on the parent/forest domain.
What other permissions/rights/privileges does the DA-DomainLocal group (or directly, the EA-Service ID) still lack? What are the differences between the access tokens/descriptors of EA-Service and DA-Service? And how do I find out?
I believe I've seen some tool that showed them, but I can't seem to find it now that I'm looking.
I listed the NTFS permissions (via AccessEnum from SysInternals) for the entire C drive and note that Administrators is on most of them and not once did I see something like Domain Admins appear and I saw nothing to do with printers at all. The list
was very long so I could have missed it if it was there. I also used the same tool to look at the HKLM hive, but that was too large to browse through.
I have set up the group structure exactly as Awinish suggested and remain stuck at the last piece. If it was some specific resource I'd have no problem, I could add it, give it permissions/rights/privileges as needful. The problem remains is
that I don't know what those permissions/rights/privileges are nor how to discover a definitive list (I've seen some generic lists, but they don't list the exact names of the right/privileges).
I'm sure I'm just being dumb.
How do I go about discovering what permissions/rights/privileges that DA-Service has that EA-Service (via the DA-DomainLocal group) needs?
I thank all of you for helping me. I appreciate the time you are taking.

How do I lock out outside users

I went through the beginning set-up but how do I make sure the WEP is on and working? Please HELP!!!

A few things you can do to ensure WEP is on and working, and also to keep others out:
First off, if you go to your Network system preference pane, double-click on "AirPort' when "Show: Network Status" is visible. Click on the "AirPort" tab, and you should see "By default, join: Automatic". Click the pulldown menu and select "Perferred Network". You should now see a field with your perferred networks.
Go one by one and click the "-" button to delete them all. Click the "Apply Now" button, and turn AirPort off from your menu bar. When you turn it back on, you will now no longer automatically connect to your network. When you try and connect again, you should be prompted to re-enter your password. This shows that WEP is working.
If you, however, selected to save your AirPort password in your Keychain, you may need to delete that preference (Applications > Utilities > Keychain Access).
You have two options to, essentially, make sure no one but you goes on your wireless network: Closed Network and Access Control. A closed network means that your network name will not show up in your AirPort monitor. The upside to this is that no one who doesn't know your network exists can access your network. The downside is that anyone you want to connect to your network must type in your network name exactly, including your WEP/WPA password, if turned on.
Access Control allows you to control who can go on your network and who can't. This is specific to MAC addresses. The upside to this is that if someone who isn't on your control list tries to access your network, they will receive an error and not be able to connect. The downside to this is that to allow someone who isn't on your control list to connect to your network, you have to enter their MAC address manually.
Both of these features can be found using the AirPort Admin Utility.
Remember: Overall, wireless networks are pretty secure as long as you have at least a password preventing unwanted users on your network. However, no security is perfect.
Hope that helps.

How to lock out a user

is there a way to block a user from changing the "Set GL Account By" in the Item master but still allow them to change other things?
If you go into the item data tab and hit a key "A" for example when the Set GL account by field is highlighted...it will change the field to Item Group when it is sitting on Warehouse.
We want to not allow for this to happen, it can be a huge problem if this is done by accident.
Thanks

Locked out of user after turning off file vault

I was told i had permission issues. I couldn't do simple things like copying files to desktop. Someone told me to turn off file vault. Did it. Now i can't access user at all. Keep getting same message,"...cannot access user at this time..." accompanied by an applications icon. All i really want from that user are my music and photos. Please help, my wife is going to kill me if i lose baby photos.

An update that may help you: I went to my Backups (created in Tiger before I switched) and restored some things from there. Unfortunately it wouldn't give me back everything (iPhoto Library all gone), but I did restore an older iTunes Library and some of my e-mails.
Were you using Backup before you lost everything?
