RE: [ActiveDir] how to list permissions applied to a directory tree

2007-01-02 Thread Tech QnA
Hi Sakari,
   
  Happy New Year and thanks for your reply.  I'm hoping to find a tool which I 
can point at my File Directory Tree and create a report of all objects and all 
AD groups which have permission to each object.
   
  If I understand it correctly, the ACLreport.vbs is a tool which is pointed at 
the Active Directory Tree to create an HTML file containing ACL's of a given AD 
tree (but not the File Directory Tree).
   
  Might you know of any tools which point at the File Directory Tree?
   
  Thanks,
   
  -Tequa

  Yours, Sakari

  Happy New Year!
   
  How do I create a list of all permissions that are currently applied to a 
directory tree?  I have to move a directory tree and change permissions to it 
and I want to ensure that I document all active permissions within this tree 
before I move it.

[ActiveDir] Moving an AD 2003 Domain Controller to a new server

2006-12-12 Thread Tech QnA
Are there any potential issues when moving a backup Domain Controller off of 
one server and onto a new server (both Windows 2003 at the same location)?
   
  I was going to build and promote the new server, transfer the FSMO roles from 
the old to the new DC and then demote the old server both in the same day.
   
  Thanks.

[ActiveDir] problem with group and permission

Hello,

I have a problem with sharing.
I have a domain with AD and 2000 server and XP Clients.
I created a global group and put user a and b a member of this group.
I have created a share directory on a XP client and gave the read permission to
this group. but the a and b user  can not open this directory and get the
access denied error.
If I give the permission seperately with a and b user. They can open the
directory without any problem.
Is there any reason why the group permission does not work but user permission
works perfectly?

The reason that you do not have some of the policies is probably
because you do not have installed the lastest templates. You can
download them from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=92759d4b-7112-4b6c-
ad4a-bbf3802a5c9b&displaylang=en
You should install the 'admFiles_WindowsXPSP2.msi' from this URL.

I'm not sure the cause of the problem with Windows installer but you
should be able to 'debug' the problem with the Group Policy Management
Console (Group policy results). Download

RE: [ActiveDir] windows XP firewall problem

2005-05-29 Thread tech
Hello,

I have searched Microsoft and found an article with Deploying windows
firewall setting with group policy. But the problem is that I do not have
some policies that are mentioned in the article. Like protect all network
connections. So this policy is not there to disable it. so the user that
logs in do not see dial up connections and can not make one. This is the
first problem.

I changed other options and the firewall is now off in domain mode. But
there is still another problem. I have problem with windows installer. It is
access denied and the user who logs into domain even administrator can not
install a software!!

Can you help me to fix the issue.
Thanks in advance.
Roseta.

[ActiveDir] OT ( is this a virus problem or hardware problem)

In our LAN network, in a one week, one graphic card was
completely out of order. The other one property changes completely .The

properly. Now other computer has problem with graphic card and suddenly it
hangs and screen goes blush and the boards start beeping. If I restart the

Is there any virus that works around graphic card, maybe
causing this?

 

Or there is no related thing. But why is changing

Here’s what hopefully is a simple question.

 

I am receiving errors in the system log reporting replication failures
from a domain controller. I realize this is probably a question for the AD
lists, but I’ll try anyways.

 

“The File Replication Service is having trouble enabling
replication from Backup-DC to Primary-DC for c:\winnt\sysvol\domain using the
DNS name Backup-DC.DOMAIN.com. FRS will keep retrying.”

 

Note, the names have been substituted.

 

My problem is, this Backup-DC was removed before I started working at
that job site (It’s not physically there anymore), so there’s no
way to “join” it and “unjoin” it. Is there another way
to remove it?

 

Thanks,

[ActiveDir] Exchange 2K3 Private Information Store Disappeared

2004-11-02 Thread Monte Barnett \(Tech\)

  Okay, here's the scenario: Exchange Server 2003 (upgraded in June from
2K w/current SPs) has, over the past two weeks, begun allowing users to
open other users mailboxes. Up until now, it was "secure" in that people
had to assign delegates, but now it's pretty much wide open.
Additionally, the Private Information Store shows *none* of the user
logons or mailboxes. Two user mailboxes won't open ("Cannot be found /
Does not exist" errors opening with Outlook). But .. all other users
can open their mailboxes, send & receive mail, use the global address
book, and do pretty much anything they normally do with e-mail. From
Active Directory Users & Computers, we cannot add email accounts, nor
can we make changes to existing users' Mailbox Rights from the Exchange
Advanced tab within User Properties. Clicking the Mailbox Right button
returns "There is no such object on the server.  Facility: Win32  ID no:
c0072030   Microsoft Active Directory - Exchange Extension. 

  As it stands, we're thinking there's little time left before this
self-destructs. Things came to a halt yesterday afternoon, and after
several hours of getting no answers from Microsoft, our Network Admin
found that the Exchange Connector in AD Sites & Services wasn't working,
deleted & re-created it, then restarted the three Global Catalog
Servers, which got mail back up and limping along. 

  Any ideas?

to lock them down to ONLY what we want them to do.

If anyone wants a copy o it, let me know.  I'll shoot it off to you...

[ActiveDir] Moving/Copying Users To A New Domain

2002-04-24 Thread Monte Barnett (Tech)


   Greetings!

 OK, here's the story: Like a few other folks, we've just discovered
that our backups (using BackupExec) did NOT have the Active Directory info
backed up properly. The previous DC is toast, and restoring to either the
old hardware config or a new hardware config has been nothing short of a
lesson in futility. The other server in the domain, even after seizing
control, will not behave as the new "PDC". After numerous errors trying to
reestablish a necessary trust with "Domain A", we successfully removed the
trust from "Domain A", but any attempts to remove it from the problem domain
("Domain B") returns an Active Directory dialog box with the error "The
specified user does not exist". We've been fighting to reconstruct things
for three days now and we've pretty well decided to just move on. We have
the users' data directories & files, and have a new "Domain C" already set
up and trusted with "Domain A".

 So, here's what we'd *like* to do: Since we can still see all of the
old users in "Domain B", we need to know if there is a way to copy the user
accounts to "Domain C". If there *is* some way to do that, it'd certainly be
easier than spending the next several days running batch files & scripts to
create the old users in the new domain, then setting up sharing &
permissions on 1200+ directories on the data drive.

     Is this even possible, or are we simply going to have to roll up our
sleeves and do it "long hand"? 

  Thanks,

Is there a way to change the default replication time 
in active directory from the set four hours to 
less.
