Dear all, am experiencing issues that i think attributable to the concept of Active Directory phantoms
the symptom is that when we open certain global groups the membership list comes out with grey icons this is not all groups - affected ones being - Domain Users / Domain computers must confess to not a full understanding of the issue here -but it seems this relates in some way to GC lookup ?? i can for sure confirm that the GC port 3268 is open on the GC's not sure why as the group / user members are in the same domain ? after the understanding of what is going on here is, of course 'HOW DO WE FIX' ?? technet seems to reference a concept of 'phantom clean up task' - a process that runs on the server running 'INFRASTRUCURE MASTER' fsmo role on a scheduled basis to resolve the directory issue. would seem not in this case ? as a point to note, neither netdiag or dcdiag are coming up with nothing concliusive in this respect. help as always gladly received GT List info : http://www.activedir.org/List.aspx List FAQ : http://www.activedir.org/ListFAQ.aspx List archive: http://www.activedir.org/ml/threads.aspx
