The file is in the user's redirected My Documents, and they are the owner of said file and have Full Control for it in the NTFS permissions. When they try to rename the file to replace a lowercase letter with the same letter in uppercase, they get a message that says You need permission to perform this action. You require permission for OUR_DOMAIN\Their.username to make changes to this file. However, if they rename the file and replace that letter with something different, it's fine. So for example, the file is called 'firstName.txt' and they try to rename it to 'FirstName.txt' it will throw the error. But if they rename it to 'LirstName.txt' it's happen. They can then rename it to 'FirstName.txt' and it's fine. The clients are all Windows 7 Enterprise x64 SP1, but I have seen this on remote file servers that are Windows 2003 as well as 2008 R2.

RE: GPOs back from the dead
Sounds like you have some sysvol replication issues. DCDiag should be your
friend here.
In general, those ntfrs_ folders are from replication conflicts so you can
usually delete them safely.
I'd check your replication topology for sysvol (maybe dead links or an old DC
still in there) as well as your File Replication Service event logs on the
domain controllers to see what replication errors are being thrown.

Subject: GPOs back from the dead
Hi folks. I have an issue that I can't seem to pin down and am hoping someone
here can help out. I recently inherited a W2K3 domain with about 20 DCs - some
W2K3 some W2K8R2. The Default Domain Controller's policy is largely empty.
However, at some point in the past, the Default Domain Controller's policy had
dozens of settings. I recently moved a number of DCs into another container
where the Default Domain Controllers policy was applied and enforced above a
policy to temporarily change some WSUS settings. However, some of the DCs
started applying the old (years old...) Default Domain Controllers policy.
RSOP.msc revealed the dozens of policies from the old Default Domain
Controllers policy being applied. Then when I moved the DC back to its
original container and ran gpupdate /target:computer /force, the policy was
updated to the current policy and related problems went away.
Checking the sysvol folder on all of the DCs for policies referencing the old
settings I discovered that 17 of 20 DCs have a secedit folder in sysvol
\Policies\{6AC1786C-016F-11D2-945F-00C04fB984F9}\MACHINE\Microsoft\Windows
NT with the old policies configured. There are also 3 to 5 folders named
secedit_ntfrs_ that do not have the settings or any settings for that
matter. The other 3 DCs do not have the secedit folder at all, but they do
have the secedit_ntfrs_ folders.
So, I have two questions. 1) Why did these settings suddenly get applied? I
mean the same Default Domain Controllers Policy was linked and enforced in both
containers.
and
2) How do I exorcise these old settings? Just delete the Secedit folders with
the old data? Delete the gptTmpl.inf files with the old data? Something else?
I'm a little fearful of blowing things out of the sysvol folder even if they
are wrong. I guess I'm a little fuzzy on the replication process.
Thanks for any insight,
Bill

RE: Recommendations for DNS/SSL provider
The issues raised by the team member who started the discussion center around some of their practices (obnoxious/exploitive commercials, support for SOPA, etc). I'm not really seeing those as business driving decisions, but there are other issues that do annoy me like their less than friendly website, the required intermediate certificates, and the fact that most things seem to have two sets of SSL instructions, one for GoDaddy and one for everyone else. :) DAMIEN SOLODOW Systems Engineer 317.447.6033 (office) 317.447.6014 (fax) HARRISON COLLEGE -Original Message- From: Joseph L.

I have one server that has many snapshots. It is probably because BackupExec wasn't able to delete the snaphot properly after the vm backup. This is only an issue on this server.

Subject: Help with this script
I found this script, to count user objects in all OUs. The report doesn't list
all OUs, so I was wondering if anyone could tell me if it has a limit as to how
deep it will go to count.
Here's the script:
Import-Module activeDirectory
$fqdn = Read-Host Enter FQDN domain
$cred = Get-Credential
Write-Host Contacting $fqdn domain... -ForegroundColor Yellow
$domain = (get-addomain $fqdn -Credential $cred | select

Write-Host Completed. Enumerating OUs.. -ForegroundColor Yellow
$OUlist = @(Get-ADOrganizationalUnit -filter * -Credential $cred -SearchBase
$domain.distinguishedName -SearchScope OneLevel -Server $domain.DNSroot)
Write-Host Completed. Counting users... -ForegroundColor Yellow
for($i = 1; $i -le $oulist.Count; $i++)
{write-progress -Activity Collecting OUs -Status Finding OUs $i
-PercentComplete ($i/$OUlist.count*100)}
$newlist = @{}
foreach ($_objectitem in $OUlist)
{
$getUser = Get-ADuser -Filter * -Credential $cred -SearchBase
$_objectItem.DistinguishedName -SearchScope Subtree -Server $domain.pdcEmulator
| measure | select Count
for($i = 1; $i -le $getUser.Count; $i++)
{write-progress -Activity Counting users -Status Finding users $i in
$_objectitem -PercentComplete ($i/$getUser.count*100)}
$newlist.add($_objectItem.Name, $getUser.Count)
}
$newlist .\OUuserCount.txt
Write-Host All done! -ForegroundColor yellow
So, the report that it creates only lists top level OUs under the domain. I
think it does, however, dig down under that to get the count, but just wanted
to make sure.

RE: Help with this script
Nope.
-SearchScope ADSearchScope
Specifies the scope of an Active Directory search. Possible values for
this parameter are:
Base or 0
OneLevel or 1
Subtree or 2
A Base query searches only the current path or object. A OneLevel query
searches the immediate children of tha
path or object. A Subtree query searches the current path or object and
all children of that path or object.

Although get-help from within PowerShell works well. ;) The -detailed and

Active Directory is a mess. It is still at Windows 2000 functional level. I need to address this before a planned migration to Exchange 2010. There are a few Windows 2000 domain controllers that I need to decommission, and my memory is foggy on Windows 2000. The name for the AD domain is like ABCdomain.com. The pre- Windows 2000 name is just ABC. Oddly, a number of systems seem to want to use ABC and not ABCdomain - these are 2003 servers and PCs mostly. Are there any tools anyone knows of that can tell me which systems refer to that. Since I'm new and the previous person left no documentation, I'm hunting alot now. All of the user IDs have the ABD domain name listed in the Account tab of their accounts, and the field is user logon name (Pre-Windows 2000). Here's the plan to at least remove the 2000 domain controllers (there are 2003/2008 DCs): 1. create new GPOs to address printer and drive mappings. Currently done via mix of batch and kixtart files. 2. Update the account information for users accounts from ABC to ABCdomain (necessary?? ). 3. Demote Windows 2000 domain controllers. 4. Change domain/functional levels to 2003 (minimum required for Exchange 2010). I'm sure I'm missing something. Comments/recommendations appreciated.

It's my understanding that this is a GUID associated with a registered COM

should be identical. In this case it would be the General tab.

Subject:AD Property pages
I noticed a couple of oddities when looking something up in adsiedit earlier
and I wanted to run it up the flag pole and see if it’s really an anomaly to
modify or just something I missed.
I was looking at the adminPropertyPages property of the
“CN=computer-Display,CN=409,CN=DisplaySpecifiers,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=name”
object.
Among the entries there I saw what look like some duplicates:
1,{6dfe6492-a212-11d0-bcd5-00c04fd8d5b6}
4,{6dfe6492-a212-11d0-bcd5-00c04fd8d5b6}
5,{6dfe6492-a212-11d0-bcd5-00c04fd8d5b6}
My understanding of this property is that the first number is an ordinal, and
the second a GUID. So 1 is the position on the properties dialog, and the GUID
string is the property page to show. This would suggest that the same page
would be displayed in three places, but that doesn’t appear to be the case.

RE: Exchange 2003 and firewall or DMZ.
Are you just going to be serving OWA (and possibly ActiveSync) to the Internet or will you also need POP/IMAP? The Ironport taking smtp from the Internet and passing it to your Exchange server is the best bet for that part. For OWA, what I would do is spin up a new Exchange 2003 server, make it part of the existing organization. What you'll do is make it a front-end server which means that it will not host an information store, just serve up OWA/ActiveSync/POP/IMAP. Then what you'll do is make this accessible via HTTPS to the Internet through your firewall (or ideally an ISA/TMG). Make sense?

So my question is what is the best scenario with the OWA on the exchange box and how do I implement this? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.commailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin

RE: moving Exchange
In this case I was asking which of the Exchange roles were present, but since it's the only one that answers the question. What might be your smoothest thing is to install the hub transport and mailbox roles on the new server and then move the mailboxes. This can be done online and non-disruptively, and the user transition will be transparent. After all the mailboxes are moved, you can remote the datastores from the current server and remove the mailbox role. This will get rid of the IS (solving your immediate need) and give you a chance to make a smooth cutover for hub transport (should be easy) and client access (not as much).

If it doesn't, you'll have to invest in some other way of getting at those apps (VDI, VM Hosted Apps, etc.) Obviously you won't get as many users on a virtual XenApp system as you do on a physical one (unless your physical ones are highly underpowered) - I've seen round about 30-40 users per box being a ballpark figure dependent on the RAM and processing power you throw at the VMs. The only thing you really maybe need to leave physical is a DNS server, maybe a DC if you want to be able to log in to the domain when everything else is down.

Subject: Deciphering UserAccountControl using PowerShell
So I know that the AD attribute UserAccountControl is the sum of the values
of 21 different values (i.e., so a value of 546 = 2+32+512, which is composed
of the sum of the constants ACCOUNT_DISABLED, PASSWORD_NOT_REQUIRED, and
NORMAL_ACCOUNT). But how do I break that down in Powershell? For example, I
want to do certain actions if a normal user account is disabled. However, I
can't just check for a value of 514 (2+512), since - like this example - the
value may be different, even tho this is an account I want to process. So how
do I go about testing for ACCOUNT_DISABLED within the total value of
UserAccountControl?
(in my case, I am planning to examine user home folders, and anyone who is
disabled, move them to a different holding folder. In our case, the user login
is used as the name of the folder, so I just need to match the folder name with
the sAMAccountName in AD)

RE: Help with PS script?
Ok, one more weird thing. I've got it getting a list of computers via
get-adcomputer to run against, and most of the computers it's fine one. But a
number of them return an access denied during the foreach-object.
However, if I modify the filter to run against some of the machines reporting
access denied, they return fine.
Here is the current script:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
$adminaccount = Get-Credential
Get-ADComputer -Filter {OperatingSystem -Like Windows *Server*} -SearchBase
DC=domain,DC=local |
ForEach-Object -process {
Get-WmiObject -class Win32_ComputerSystem -ComputerName $_.Name -Credential
$adminAccount |
Select-Object `
@{l='ComputerName';e={$_.__Server.ToString()}},`
@{l='Manufacturer';e={$_.Manufacturer.ToString()}},`
@{l='Model';e={$_.Model.ToString()}},`
@{l='Operating System';e={(Get-WmiObject -class Win32_OperatingSystem
-ComputerName $_.Name -Credential $adminAccount | Select-Object -expand
Caption).ToString()}}} |

Ok, one more weird thing. I've got it getting a list of computers via
get-adcomputer to run against, and most of the computers it's fine one. But a
number of them return an access denied during the foreach-object.
However, if I modify the filter to run against some of the machines reporting
access denied, they return fine.
Here is the current script:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
$adminaccount = Get-Credential
Get-ADComputer -Filter {OperatingSystem -Like Windows *Server*} -SearchBase
DC=domain,DC=local |
ForEach-Object -process {
Get-WmiObject -class Win32_ComputerSystem -ComputerName $_.Name -Credential
$adminAccount |
Select-Object `
@{l='ComputerName';e={$_.__Server.ToString()}},`
@{l='Manufacturer';e={$_.Manufacturer.ToString()}},`
@{l='Model';e={$_.Model.ToString()}},`
@{l='Operating System';e={(Get-WmiObject -class Win32_OperatingSystem
-ComputerName $_.Name -Credential $adminAccount | Select-Object -expand

RE: if/else statement problem.
The ELSE clause must occur on the same line as the command after the IF. For example: IF EXIST filename. ( del filename. ) ELSE ( echo filename. missing. ) The following would NOT work because the del command needs to be terminated by a newline: IF EXIST filename. del filename. ELSE echo filename. missing Nor would the following work, since the ELSE command must be on the same line as the end of the IF command: IF EXIST filename. del filename.

I emailed L0pht at the time and they said they didn't support cracking alt-char passwords. I've heard that this is not the case with other password crackers, but even if so, adding these types of characters extends the time for brute-force cracking astronomically. Even if you take into account rainbow tables, I haven't been able to find a rainbow table that includes that wide of a character set. All that said, we moved away from alt-char passwords since they often introduced incompatibilities. Outlook Web Access was one place they failed for us years ago. Again, I don't know if this has improved, but I would guess not. Another possible problem is trying to use them on devices that lack a method of entering them. Most phone's don't have an alt key and numeric keypad :) One other, note, not all alt-chars are created equal, especially if you're cracking against an LM hash. For instance, alt-141 (ì) is interpreted as simply a lowercase (i).
