I have noticed on my domain environment; the old Administrator password (before password expire).. The client machines have cached the old password and have the ability to bypass the new password by entering the old one..?
I have noticed on my domain environment; the old Administrator password (before password expire)..
I'm using 11.32.5.11 (Release Tier).
A user account is setup with a primary domain and an addon domain.
Im kinda new to network administration.
I was asked to change the password on our SQL Server. The only account that is used to log in is the Administrator account.
I did a dumb thing and reset it through Ctrl+Alt+Delete > "Change Password". The admin password got reset for the whole domain.
I am having a situation where I need to restrict the user access to change their password in Active Directory (Windows Server 2008 Standard) environment. What I need is to check the Account Options where:
User Cannot Change Password
Password Never Expire
Are there the best way to enforce this policy through Group Policy?
Recently i came across through password sync plug-ins provided by many identity management provider vendors (Tivoli, Oracle, CA) they provide a password sync plug-in which we will install on every active directory domain controller. Then we will configure the plug-in with the identity manager servers information.
In the Basic Settings section of a website in IIS 7.5, there is an option to specify a user account via Connect As.... If this is kept off, pass through authentication is used.
I assumed that would use the identity of the Application Pool however this was not the case. In order to get my website to connect to MSSQL under the correct user account, I had to specify the user under the Connect As...
I've been stuck on this for a while, not sure what permission I'm missing. I've got domain A and domain B, A trusts B, but B does not trust A. I'm trying to run a service in domain A with a user account from domain B and I keep getting Access is Denied. I'm using the FQDN after the username and the password is correct.
I am trying to build a self-service password reset tool for a test domain.
I am trying to diagnose/troubleshoot an issue where users to a Sharepoint site are not able to login anymore after 2 days from an initial password change (these are domain accounts). The password gets changed by IT Support, and then after two days, they are not able to login.
There is one (I know, bad, but I didn't decide this) DC with SQL Server, and a MOSS server.
