RE: [ActiveDir] ADSI and RAS
I think you can, if you download the SDK for ADSI 2.5 you get a DLL ADRAS.dll there is an example in vb6 that allows you to set/give a user Ras properties, and there is a vb6 example of a user manager when you click on the user it allows you to see his/her user properties. I will look further into this dll, if I find something I will post it. In the mean time if anyone has something like this where I can see the code ... Tony thank you for the link it has helped me!

Kevin, Is the user working via Pass Through Authentication? I had a temporary user whose laptop was a member of another domain (non-trusted) using resources in a domain via Pass Through Auth like accessing his Exchange Mailbox through Outlook and File Shares. The domain his laptop was not a member of would lock his account with no errors in any of the event logs, no reported failed auth attempts. Unfortunately, the only resolution I found was to change the domain membership of his laptop, problem solved.

Re: [ActiveDir] User's Account Locked out Every morning
There could a number of reasons for this. A good way to find out additional information is to use the Account Lockout Status utility from Microsoft. I believe this is only currently available directly from Microsoft PSS, but will be available in future resource kits. Basically, the way it works is you give it a username and it polls each DC in the domain for information, including User State, Bad Pwd Count, Last Bad Pwd, Lockout Time, Orig Lock, etc. Tony -- Original Message -- From: Kevin Felker [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2003 09:00:52 -0600 Every morning I have to unlock one of my user's accounts because it is locked out every morning.

Also could be custom service developed by someone and they used their userid/password for the credentials for the service. I am asked periodically to investigate the cause of this and I search the domain controllers security logs for 539 and 644 events. Part of the message field in the events is the workstation name involved. You'll likely find more than one machine involved. One of them will be the machine with the out of data password being used for the manual drive map or login with old password, etc... They're fairly easy to resolve as long as you're logging, even with 100+ domain controllers.

[ActiveDir] Justications to Migrate to Active Directory

We don't have any direct requirements to implement AD, like we must upgrade to Exchange2000(which requires AD). I can see a few benefits, but my management wants to see quantified justifications. For example, by migrating to AD you can save 1 hour in setting up a new user with RIS.

RE: [ActiveDir] Justications to Migrate to Active Directory
I don't know if this will be of any importance, but I have seen several instances where windows 2000 is much more stable than NT4. Case in point, I was working for a defense contractor and we had 5 mail servers(exch. 5.5) and they notoriously went down. If we didn't reboot the servers once a week, they would go down. We took one of the lower tasked servers(500 users) and put it on windows 2000 and didn't have to reboot it for a month and it was still running like a champ. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Roger Seielstad Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 11:10 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Justications to Migrate to Active Directory Add to that the fact that Exchange 5.5 is end of support at the same time, and its pretty much a no brainer. -- Roger D.
