ADAM Security Logging
The applications in our location that use our ADAM directories should return a limited number (less than 20) of entries per query. We would like to log every query that exceeds that amount. By changing the Field Engineering Diagnostics setting to 5 and adding a Expensive Search Results Threshold Parameter, I was able to log the query information. This works great when an AD account ran the...

Override time sync on a few workstations
We have a domain in which we need a few workstations to be able to set their clocks to the day before on a regular basis. They do this to ease data entry to an accounting application in which they are always several days behind. When they change the time on the desktop it reverts back automatically every hour or so. I realize the best practice is for time to be synced to domain, however...

LDS 2008 questions for 2003 AD and 2008 AD forest trust
We currently are trying to put a solution in place that will allow a single sign in for SAP and other applications between two AD Forests with a trust. This is basically a break away from the original 2003 domain and then migrating users to the new trusted 2008 domain. The trust is at the Forest root. Now SAP uses an LDAP lookup to AD for user authentication and in order to break aw...

SID not resolving to Username
We've recently started migrating users from our legacy domain to our newly created domain. There is a two way trust between the domains, and several servers have been migrated with no issue. One particular server is giving me headaches, however. Once migrated to the new domain, this server does not show users in local groups, but rather their SIDs. When I add new users to the group, regar...

Currently I have a GP that uses user config-admin templates-desktop-active desktop to do this as a test to a single OU. However I do not want the dekstop wallpaper to be active desktop based but rather a BMP that gets set. Also how can I handel...

I'm asking fellow Windows users this question, if those at Microsoft have not developed anything in the three and a half years since this article was published, then I don't believe anything will be don...

Can't Access Server
A year ago I set up server S1 as the company's new Active Directory/Exchange Server (Windows 2003 x64 R2 , Exchange Server 2007 sp1). Later in the year I set up another server named S2, also running Windows 2003 R2 x64. It's primary function was to run the network backup software. I decided to add S2 as another domain controller, so I would have a backup one. I also installed the certifi...

Retaining NTFS Permissions on Files Once System Is Removed From Domain
MarkPL@nospam.nospam I have a DC that I'll be demoting and repromoting. In the event that it is not a graceful demotion and it needs to go into a workgroup, will it retain the NTFS permissions from the Domain or will I need to restore them from a backup via BackupExec with the option to only restore security on the files? Thanks, Mark...
