I think as with many things with AD, the answer is... it
depends.
If you have a lot of people with access they shouldn't have
you could have a lot of data integrity and configuration issues for instance
where someone who locked down to a minimal set of people with rights may have a
very small issue with this or possibly no issue at all with it.
I am trying to think back to when I did ops (I got out of
it almost a year ago now) and we really didn't have any common AD problems that
were encountered on a day to day or even week to week basis. We had lots of
requests to handle because we didn't let people create many things but the
scripts made that a breeze. In actuality I spent my days consulting to vendors,
internal developers/integrators, etc and my two co-workers handled the tickets
that rolled in which numbered in many thousands a year plus we always had email
and phone call requests coming in, it is standard fare in a 250,000 user
environment. Our AD was very solid and just sort of cruised along which wasn't
always the case. When I first took it over it was a train wreck from
mismanagement and configuration issues.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Most Common Problems Encountered through Day to Day operations
Hello All,
Wanted to introduce myself and ask a question. What are the most common AD
problems you encounter on the day to day with AD?
I wanted to say thanks also for the insightful info. I am learning through
this post as well.
Thanks,
