[ActiveDir] Account Name Change

2005-03-03 Thread Christopher Hummert



I recently had someone in my office get married and 
thus change their name. Last time this happened, I just created a new account in 
AD and moved the files and other important stuff from the old accountto 
the new account. I was just wondering, is there an easier way to do this? Am I 
reinventing the wheel here? What do other people do in this 
situation?

Thanks
-Chris

You could just update 
the AD Display Name and rename the UserID. AD uses SIDs and GUIDs to 
secure access to resources.

Lately I my users have been plagued 
with spyware and adware. What do you guys do to fight 
this?
Can Spybot be pushed out as an msi 
via a gpo? Or ad-aware?
Should I set the killbit on all the 
local active x controls?
Should I prevent active x and 
_javascript_ing in IE thru a gpo?

Im running win2k/xp clients, but 
mostly win2k.

Finally, when you get a worm or a 
virus that writes to the hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run key, 
does the worm/virus run under the users security context? 

Meaning, if the user is just a local 
user and thus has no privileges to write to those keys, shouldnt the worm or 
virus not be able to as well?

Thanks and sorry for the deluge of 
questions, OT as they are.


RE: [ActiveDir] SpyWare

2004-07-28 Thread Christopher Hummert
Title: Message



In addition to setting up Spybot to run nightly, I 
recommend installing Spywareblaster (freeware):
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

It's not a scanner, it's more of a vaccine tool. It will 
help to harden IE against spyware exploits, but like everything else it's not 
100% effective. In addition to that I also prevent users from installing any 
software at all. I used to have a loose policy on that, but after installations 
of AIM, Webshots and WeatherBug (all programs that do "drive-by" installs of 
spyware) locking the systems down like that was the only way to be 
sure.

And if you haven't upgraded to version 1.3 of Spybot, then 
do so right away. You'll be able to download the latest spyware definitions and 
you have the ability to run spybot in resident mode. In addition to that they 
included TeaTimer in the install, which notifies you of programs trying to 
change information in the registry.

We use spybot along with the resident program that came out in the 1.3
release. So far it's been pretty good. I was wondering, what did you do to
get it to run with the scheduler and bat files? I haven't been able to get
it to cooperate yet.

RE: [ActiveDir] OT: PST files

2004-01-22 Thread Christopher Hummert



From an exchange list that some of us here are 
on:


Why PSTs are bad, by Ed 
Crowley.
Reprinted by permission of the author (Ed 
Crowley). Items 11, 12 and 13 courtesy of Stephen Gutknecht. Based on input from 
the many PST=BAD proselytizers in the Exchange Discussion List and personal 
experience.

  PST=BAD #1. They're fragile, especially as they 
  get big. They get corrupted too easily. Users aren't the best at ensuring that 
  their systems are properly shut down.
  PST=BAD #2. You have to run the Inbox Repair Tool 
  on them way too often.
  PST=BAD #3. Your users don't back them up. 
  Presumably you do back up the server.
  PST=BAD #4. Your users don't compact them. They 
  just get bigger and bigger.
  PST=BAD #5. Your users forget their PST 
  passwords. Even though there are unsupported tools to crack them, it can take 
  a significant amount of time to do so.
  PST=BAD #6. You lose single instance store 
  (SIS).
  PST=BAD #7. Messages take up more space in a PST 
  than in an Exchange store.
  PST=BAD #8. It's simply nuts to store PSTs on a 
  network drive. They just end up taking up more space. Is disk space on your 
  file server cheaper than disk space on your Exchange server?
  PST=BAD #9. One might think that it will be 
  easier to restore a single mailbox by using server-based PSTs. However, with 
  proper implementation of the Ed Crowley Never Lose a Mailbox Procedure, it 
  should never ever be necessary to restore a mailbox.
  PST=BAD #10. For road warriors, OSTs are a much 
  superior storage technique, especially with the improvements made with Outlook 
  98. They allow untethered computing at a higher level than with PSTs, plus 
  with the added security of a backed-up information store on the 
  server.
  PST=BAD #11: A PST can be opened by only one 
  machine at a time. This precludes a manager and assistant from working from 
  the same PST simultaneously, and precludes team access.
  PST=BAD #12: You cannot use Outlook Web Access to 
  read your downloaded messages.
  PST=BAD #13: Future applications, such as unified 
  messaging, will be poorly implemented when using PSTs. Groupware applications 
  that work with the mailbox probably won't work at all.
  PST=BAD #14: PST files are not secure. Anyone 
  with access to the PST file can open it using the right tools.
  PST=BAD #15: You cannot clean up PST files after 
  virus infestations.
  Why PSTs are good.
  PST=GOOD #1. They're just about all you have when 
  using a POP3 mail source. (We maintain that use of POP3 in an enterprise, 
  unless that's the only client available, is a reflection of administrative 
  sloth.)
  PST=GOOD #2. They're useful as an archive for 
  those who simply can't ever delete a message, as long as the user understands 
  that they could lose all their data, and as long as they keep it on their 
  local hard drive.

This may be considered a tad risky. But how about an inplace upgrade

I am doing that now and it is quite annoying.  We just bought our sweden
company so we weren't in on the decision for SBS.  Migrating to our
domain (if we want to do that) is going to such a pain :(

Thanks for the input.  I just don't want to go to sweden until summer :)

You can set the password and users id's on both sides to match, and the

 My Sweden office currently has a SBS server running as their DC and we

 would like to create a trust but cannot with SBS.  Is it possible to 
 create another DC and transfer all the roles to it and then
decommission
 the SBS server?

No 
problem here, you probably want to update your virus scanner on your SMTP 
gateway though. Oh and next time you send a message this big, about something 
like this, you might want to consider adding the e-mail address you wish to send 
to, to the BCC portion of your mail client. That way people can't see how 
manypeople you sent this too, and it protects those peoples e-mail address 
from any e-mail address harvester we may have on this mailing

Subject: [ActiveDir] Account Lockout after password reset


  Hello,
I have had a few users where I work reset their password and they didn't
reboot the computer and it locks them out after a while. I look at their
account and see 5 bad passwords (our GPO is set for 5) The strange thing
is I can unlock their account and they can get in to their mail, network
drive and other network resources and not show any bad passwords, but
after a few hours and sometimes not until the next day it will lock them
out with again.
 
I watch their authenticating domain controller for bad passwords after I
unlock them and I don't see any bad passwords, sometimes a few bad
passwords will show up after a few hours but I talk to the user and they
haven't done anything on the computer. And when they come in the next
day, they will be locked out with 5 bad passwords. It's not specific
with the company because I've had it happen to me on my home Win2K
domain. I finally solved my problem by resetting the password on the
Computer, not through the MMC and rebooting. The problem at work is if
the user resets their password they can't reset it for 5 days.
 
Any ideas or has anyone else encountered this, I've searched Microsoft
high and low and can't find anything specific.
 
Regards,
  Chuck

We have been testing the .NET Server in our environment.

There are many enhancements that have made our life easier.

Our company is a large Bank in South Africa and we operate in many
African countries and with this we have the issue of bad
telecommunications to our foreign branches.

We are using the feature called Replicate from Media.
All you need to do now is perform a System State Backup and then restore
to the new server. Run DCPromo with an ADV switch and point to the
Restore location. Hey presto you will have your entire directory
replicated to the local DC and with the replication schedule set up it
will receive the updates which will be minimal.

Other features include:
DNS Stub Zones
Conditional Forwarding 
Application Partition: Replication to set to replicate to all domains or
certain domains. (Very cool feature) GC-Less Logon: Logon requests can
be accepted without the need of a GC in the site. (Must have logged on
previously but will continue with a cache
profile)
DC Rename: Very cool but you need .NET Native mode. 
Domain Rename: also need .NET Native
(Be very sure that you want to perform this as you need to reboot your
servers twice with other configuration changes) Forest Trust: Transitive
trusts will be the name of the game for this which is pretty cool
considering previously you had to set up external trust from the one

One last thing IIS 6.0 is much better stable, secure than the previous

Hope this info helps you.

One more thing to add If you are 
putting entries into an LMHOSTS file, there are spacing and case 
sensitivities to watch for (MS KnowledgeBase article 180094 
refers).
As the sample shows below, a domain controller is identified 
by it's NetBIOS name in the second line, and the DOMAIN name it serves is 
ID'd in the third line. The comment line has the spacing and numbers to use 
as a guide. The quotes are necessary as are the capital letters.

Well - here's the thing. 
If you did in fact have some sort of TROJAN on that box - - 
I would recommend scrubbing the disk and building 
the disk back from scratch. I KNOW it's a pain, 
especially if you have a lot of things loaded on that box. But if you don't I guarantee you (maybe not tomorrow - 
maybe not until 6 months from now) you will have 
problems again. 
The rebuild will also replace your HOSTS/LMHOSTS to the 
original state. 
That being said - - - -if you don't want to do it - - you 
host file simply correlates an IP address to the UNC 
of a box on your network The entries would look like 
this: 201.124.152.24 boxname 
201.124.152.27 boxname 201.124.152.124 boxname 
Of course the IPs and names would be specific to YOUR IP 
range and names -- - and if you don't know - you 
must include the TAB SPACE between the IP and the 
name

Get your attention with the subject? :)

I have been battling a problem with one of my user's machines for the
past week. She is running Windows XP Pro, Office XP Pro SP1. Whenever
she starts up her Outlook, she gets prompter for the username, password
and server.

I put the information in exactly as it should be (and have verified with
my AD on the server) and I get the following message:

Your login information was incorrect. Check your username and domain,
then type in your password again. If your account is new or if your
administrator requested a password change you need to click Change
Password then logon with your new password.

I re-check the info in the AD on the server via VNC so I am right there
at her terminal doing double checks. I re-enter the password, and get
the message again. I change the password on the AD, then enter the new
password on her Outlook (usually use 1 as the password so I know I type
it correct) and still get the above error. 

I need to get this resolved for her as she is in charge of accounting
and has made my life hell in the past because since I am the IT Manager
I should be all knowing, all powerful (a common misconception by those
users that know no better)

So, please if anyone knows what I can do to resolve this, please let me
know. I'm at my wits end!

Ok what do I need to do? I logged off and logged back on but the folder
redirection didn't change..but another setting I made to the gpo
did. So I know that the GPO updated but not the FR.

Folder redirection and software installation are the two GPOs that won't
dynamically update.  Make sure your AD is in synch and ensure your
sysvol is replicating and then logoff and then back on again.  Should
work.

Interesting that you even mention this.  I have a reg file that sets the
zones on IE via directly modding the registry in just this manner. We've
got about 25k seats of Inbound/Outbound 'Out-sourced marketers' (yeah, I
can even put lipstick on a pig like Telemarketing!) and we have 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...

 Well, you *could* write code into his login script that sets the IE 
 security preferences for the Restricted Zones, and then undoes it in 
 the standard login script so that others are not affected...
 That would probably be a good script to hang onto for future 
 offenders as well.  
 Add his web-mail site to the restricted zones on a test pc, 
 then export HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ 
 Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Internet 
 Settings\ZoneMap\Domains to a REG file. In his logon script, 
 copy this reg file to a temp on the system and run it. For 
 the clean up in the normal script, find the specific entry 
 and delete it, maybe?
 
 I would also suggest drafting an acceptable use policy to run by the

 powers that be, maybe through your IT boss... the worst they can do is

 say We're not concerned. At best, you might gain some leverage on 
 stopping things like this. Good luck! -JB

Before you do that registry wipe, it might be easier to just wipe out

Go to the computer, Login as admin or yourself if you have domain admin
rights. 

Right click on my computer  manage  Local Users and Groups  Go to
groups make sure his NT account is added to at least to the local users
group, if not click add, find the account you are trying to logon to.
Logoff the machine, he should be able to login now. -b

Have you looked at the machine's Local Security Policy?  I can't
determine why you're getting this error, but unless the Interactive
Logon Permissions have been modified, these are typically set at the
machine as the effective settings.  The Domain policy would probably be
undefined, as the Local would take precedence in this case.

Chris,

Sorry I haven't replied - I backed out of the fray on this one.

The right to log in locally is usually set at the local machine.  It's a
Deny Logon Locally or the Log on Locally  permission that has been set.
It will typically (unless someone has deemed to set it at the domain for
ALL users and ALL computers in the domain) be set in the Local Policy on
the machine.  You can get to this by logging in as the Administrator and
looking in the Admin tools on the local machine or load up an MMC and
select the Local Security Policy, then set the focus to this machine.

Look to the Deny Logon Locally permission.  Make sure that the user is
not defined here.  Nexy look at the Log on Locally make that the user IS
defined here.

This is most likely not a Group Policy issue.  When we deal with the Sec
Policies, the closer to the Local machine, the more precedence these
settings will take.  This is opposite of the way that GPO works, as the
farther from the Local settings we get, the less effect local settings
can impose.

not been able to find out much about that process.

Real world scenario -  Say we want to deploy the latest service pack on
120 workstations.  How is this done?

1) Where do we get the download to convert to .msi

2) How do we convert to .msi

3) What is the best way to push out to the workstations that minimizes
user intervention.

Yea it

I am looking at buying new servers as well and we are looking into
Clustering or any other means of hardware and software redundancy. I am
pretty sure Advanced Server does clustering as well as load balancing,
and I think new servers can be brought in after the cluster is created.
One bad thing about Advanced Server and clustering techniques, from what
I understand, is that it is a more advanced setup and would require a
higher learning curve and more monitoring and maintenance. Not that that
is a concern for any of us, but time is a key element we must look at
here as well.
 
I am interested in what people have to say about this technology as
well, as it will be one of the major factors when we go to buy our new
server machines.

Hi All, 

I am currently specing out a number of  new file and printers servers
for our HQ with about 700 users (at the moment). I'm considering using
W2K Advanced server to cluster machines. My first questions is, is this
a good idea? Can you load balance across servers? 

Where I am coming from is I want the users at the site, to be able to
connect to the machine(s) with one name using the same disk array. There
could be 4 or more servers in the cluster, if one of the servers fails,
the users get moved over to one of the working machines. Also, can it
load balances itself across the machines. For expandability, if we find
we need more storage or disk capacity, we can just add another server to
the cluster or more disk to the external device? 

Is this possible in a File and Print only environment, or am I living in
a dream world? 


Thanks for you comments

2002-03-05 Thread Christopher Hummert

Yea if your stuck it ASP I would pay for chillisoft, maybe someday a
open source alternative will show up. Right now I made the switch to
Linux for some of our service mainly due to cost. I have a web server
and e-mail running off a old AMD K-6 233mhz and it's surprising how fast
it is, and I've restarted it once in the past 4 months and that was only
because I couldn't figure out how to restart an daemon. This is my first
major step into Linux and it's really changed my mind about it

As far as NLB goes, it is very easy to set-up and it works wonderfully
in my production web farm set-up.  I'm sure Apache works as well on
Linux but for people who commits to ASP like me, I'll stick with NLB.

Why would you get flamed for that?  It certainly is an option.  Slightly
more difficult to incorporate applications leveraging AD, but certainly
an option.

[ActiveDir] Win98 Clients and Printer Problems

2002-02-14 Thread Christopher Hummert

I had this problem that just started to happened here in the past few
days. I have 2 Windows 98 clients left in the office and all of the
sudden when they try to print they get asked for a just a password. They
then enter their user password but the print jobs never come out. Anyone
know what's going on here or what I should be looking at? I'm thinking
it's some active directory permission problem but then again I'm not
sure

[ActiveDir] ICQ problems in an AD

2002-02-06 Thread Christopher Hummert

I know this is a little off topic but I've been trying to figure this
out for awhile. I've been trying to get ICQ working on our network. But
it won't run with users who are not Administrators. Basically whenever
they run the program all that happens is the splash screen shows up and
nothing happens. Now this isn't a problem for anyone with Admin rights,
cause the program runs correctly for them. Now I contacted ICQ and they
told me this:

1. From the profile you used when you first installed ICQ, run the
registry editor (Regedit.exe). 2. Locate the root
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mirabilis\ICQ
3. Click the ICQ key, and choose Registry - Export Registry File 
4. Under Export Range, make sure the option Selected Branch is
selected, and in the space under it, the correct path is showing
(HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mirabilis\ICQ)
5. Choose a file name, and save it on your hard disk. Note the location
you are saving the file to. It is best not to save the file on your
desktop, since the desktop change between profiles. 6. Log out from the
computer and log in with the other profile. 7. Locate the registry file
your exported and run it. 8. Windows will ask you if you wish to import
the registry settings. Choose Yes and confirm. 9. Locate the ICQ.exe
file from the installed directory (usually in C:\program files\ICQ\) ,
then right-click the file and choose Copy. 10. Minimize all windows
11. Right-click your desktop and choose Paste Shortcut.

Ok I tried that and it didn't work. Does anyone have a suggestion on
what I could do to get these users working with ICQ without having to
add them to the Admin Group (which I'm not going to do) Is there some
type of GPO setting I can change that would get them working?

Thanks

Hi,

We had a similar problem some time ago, I can't remember the cause (I'm
sure it wasn't  licensing), but we fixed it by moving the master browser
role to another server. 

The master browser role had been taken by an Exchange server, we moved
it to a domain controller and that fixed the problem. You can check what
computers are holding browser roles with BROWMON from the resource kit.

Hmm. I had a very similar error with a Small Business Server 2000
server. What was happening was that a script we had set up was logging
each user onto about 7 mapped drives when they logged on. Due to some
complete awfulness in Win2k Pro, each mapped drive counts as a user on
the license server, so the licenses run out. But, we did keep having
pop-ups on the server telling us that our server was near to the maximum
number of licenses, or had exceeded the maximum number.

The solution was phoning MS and getting them to e-mail over a hotfix
(specific to SBS 2000) which will be released when SP3 comes out.

Sorry to go on :) More to the point, are you getting any entries in your
event log that tell you that the license server is running out? Or any
errors in the event logs of the individual workstations that hint at a
userenv problem, or license problem?

Just need a bit more info, that's all :)

Cheers,

Andy

That's weird. Usually in a case like that, you would at least see which
names were in conflict - did you reboot the machine at all between the
time the error was logged and the time you ran nbtstat?

Other than that I think we'll have to wait for Rick Kingslan to help
out
:) Or Dean Wells (sorry not to mention you first, Dean ;)

I don't see any errors in the event log related to licensing but I did
find this error:

Yes it does have 3 network cards. 2 of them for the internal network and
one for outside access(e-mail and IIS (I rather run apache though)) This
problem just started occuring though, I can check tomorrow but I don't
think it's been happening for more then 2 or 3 weeks. (I tried to figure
it out on my own before sending a message to the list)

Does it have more than one network card?  Just a stab in the dark here
but I have a number of multi-homed servers and a fair amount of the
goofy problem I get have to do with that.

I'm having a pretty weird error that I can't seem to figure out.
Whenever I have a user go to network neighborhood and then view the
entire contents of the network and then they click on the domain they
get the message AAII is not accessible - No more connections can be
made to this remote computer at this time because there are already as
many connections as the computer can accept I can do a search for the
domain controller and connect to it that way but not the other. Now I
thought it was a license problem but it appears that I have the required
amount of licenses. Anyone know what's wrong?

Thanks

  [ActiveDir] RPC Server weird error
  Hi all,
  
  I am experiencing a weird, recurring problem on 
  all 12 of the Windows 2000 Professional (SP2) workstations at one of my 
  client's offices. Approximately every half-hour to hour, each workstation will 
  log the following error in the Application event log:
  
  e.g.
  
  Source: Userenv
  Category: None
  Type: Error
  Event ID: 1000
  User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
  Computer: FLUMP
  
  Description: Windows cannot determine the user or 
  computer name. Return value (1722).
  
  I did the obvious NET HELPMSG 1722 and it tells 
  me that 'The RPC Server is unavailable'. I have also looked all over the web 
  for ways to fix this problem, and can't find any. They all seem to give me 
  really unuseful information, like 'Make sure your DNS is configured properly' 
  and other such useful tidbits. I am really lost here! None of the workstations 
  experience any problems, whatsoever. They all work fine, log on fine, use 
  Exchange fine, register in the DNS fine etc etc, can browse the network and 
  web. They all work fine. BUT I can't get rid of this error message, which just 
  keeps on showing up. The client is convinced something bad will happen, and I 
  just need, for my own peace of mind, to solve this one - and the web has 
  turned out to be useless for tracking down a resolution.
  
  BTW, the server is Small Business Server 2000 
  (SP2) and is experiencing no problems.
  
  Thanks all in advance, I would be really grateful 
  if someone could shed some light on this one!

Yea that's what I meant I think there is a reg hack out there to reduce

The documentation I found said that it shouldn't take over 10 seconds
when the machine is offline.  Once the IP address is gone it changes
automatically, but the time from when the site stops to when it actually
doesn't see the IP (i.e. the machine is off) is what I need to minimize.
It has to shut everything down, etc. which takes time.  The best I've
got it so far is about a minute.  This isn't that bad, but it just seems
weird that it would have downtime at all, if the other machine is up and
running and ready to server clients.  That's what I'm trying to see if
it's inherent in 2000, or if I'm missing something.

Yep.  It works fine.  The Dfs is just to keep the web content the same
on both machines.  The load balancing does what it's supposed to if you
turn the machine off or unplug it from the network.  It's when something
not so drastic happens like IIS stops responding or something like that.
Then the load balancing should kick in, but it still thinks it's fine
because it can see it on the network.  It thinks that the machine is
still good to go becuase it can see it, when in fact it's not serving
web content and it should be failing over to the backup.  It's an issue
of how the NLB software recognizes a machine in a cluster.  It does it
by the heartbeat of the machine.  I guess there's always a hack to
write a script that will disable the NIC if something happens and then
have it reboot.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Win 2k Network Load Balancing


Kind of off the AD subject, but I'm trying to load balance two web
servers, both running Adv. Server.  I set them both up to serve web
content with a Dfs and am running some tests on them to see what will
happen if I take one offline. In theory, when one goes offline, the
other one should take over
for it and keep serving content.   When I stop the web site for the
Number 1
Priority server, the content that it was serving is not available to
anyone via the web (404 error), and it doesn't roll over to the next
machine.  The reason is that it still has a heartbeat because it is on
the network, and this is how load balancing detects if a machine is
available to server content or not.  If it can see it on the network, it
thinks it can serve content, even though something software based might
be screwing up.  The only time it works how I want it to is when I
either shut the machine down or unplug it from the network.  And while
it's shutting down the web content isn't available while it's shutting
down, since the www service stops before the network connection dies. If
I take a server down, or it fails, I'de like to keep downtime as
transparent as possible to users.  The best I can do right now is about
1 minute during a reboot while it shuts everyhing down.  Is this just an
inherent flaw in the design of network load balancing for 2000, or am I
missing something?
