Jorge --

I was following those threads which unfortunately did not clue me in. The users that have AdminCount=1 but shouldn't have never been in a protected group nor are they in a non protected group that is nested in protected group.

I have even gone so far as to remove all group memberships (besides Domain Users) for a particular user, force replication, admod the attribute to 0 and still it resets to 1 after an hour.

Thanks for the reply - i'd appreciate any more feedback you may have.

Hi,

This was a thread that was discussed a few days ago. See the following post
from Joe where he explains some things in addition to my own post.

HINTS:
* nested groups -> is that user a member of a non-default-protected-group
and where that non-default-protected-group IS a member of a protected group.
* were those users somehow members of protected groups in the past? If they
were and now are not the admincount will not be reset to 0

Is this an answer to your issue?

Greetings --

Using adfind to identify users who have the AdminCount attribute set to
1.

Looking at the output there are users who are expected to have that set seeing that they are Domain Admins BUT i also see a handful of users who

are not members of a protected group.

Using admod to set AdminCount=0 for those users temporarily sets it until the PDC mechanism runs which compares the ACLs and resets it.

If the user isn't in a protected group then what is causing this behavior? And i guess once i know that i can set AdminCount=0 for them,

permanently?

tia,
