            Event String:

            The time service has not synchronized the system time for 86400 seconds because none of the time service providers provided a usable time stamp. The time service will not update the local system time until it is able to synchronize with a time source. If the local system is configured to act as a time server for clients, it will stop advertising as a time source to clients. The time service will continue to retry and sync time with its time sources. Check system event log for other W32time events for more details. Run 'w32tm /resync' to force an instant time synchronization.

            The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows attempted to read the file \\buc.edu\sysvol\buc.edu\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini from a domain controller and was not successful. Group Policy settings may not be applied until this event is resolved. This issue may be transient and could be caused by one or more of the following:

            a) Name Resolution/Network Connectivity to the current domain controller.

            b) File Replication Service Latency (a file created on another domain controller has not replicated to the current domain controller).

            c) The Distributed File System (DFS) client has been disabled.

Deploying Outlook 2007

$
0
0

Hi, I asked this question in another category, and part of the advise involved posting here.  Just a note, this is regarding outlook 2007, not outlook exchange.

Basically, I have windows server with active directory, and I have a load of computers around the office on AD.  Most things I have tried are working, apart from one thing.

We have outlook installed on all user computers.  When the user first configures outlook, they have to do the account setup, including their username and password.  We want this account setup to be on the server, not the users computer.  Essentially, we dont want the users knowing their passwords.

Our main problem is this.  User has a computer and their outlook if configured on this.  If this user then moves to another computer, logs into their account, they would have to reconfigure outlook on the new computer.  We dont want this happening, if they log into their account on another computer all their apps should be set up already.  I think outlook has something called roaming profiles, not to sure though.

So my question is whether we can handle their account details on the server, rather than on their local computer?

Many thanks

We need to enable a setting that we can only find in the local gpedit.msc.     it is under computer\windows components\Windows Logon Options\Disable or enable software secure attention sequence

We need to set this to SERVICES.   I can't find this same setting in our Domain Group Policy Management tool.    How do you set this from the domain if the setting is not there?   Do you have to push out a script that sets it?   Or is there a .ADM file that has this setting?

Easing into stricter passwords

$

Hi everyone, 

Our domain server is running server 2008 r2. We are planning on requiring stricter passwords soon here, and i understand how to change group policy relating to passwords and everything. My question is, when I change group policy will everyone's old, now-not-complex-enough passwords continue to work and they will just have to make a conforming password next time they have to change it, or will it cause some sort of cataclysm where everyone's password suddenly doesn't work? 

Thanks, 

Pat


VB script does not run via Task Scheduler

$

Hi,

I have this script which logs off a user if logged in.

set objShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")

result = objShell.PopUp("Would you like to log off now? [You will be logged off in 60 sec automatically, please save your work]",60,"Logoff required", vbOKCancel)

If result = 2 Then
      Wscript.echo "Logoff aborted, please log off manually"

Else
      objShell.Run "Logoff.exe"
End If



I have put this in batch file called logoff.bat
cscript C:\Auto_Logoff.vbs

I can run this manually on our windows 7 PC with no problems but when I add this to task scheduler it does not run since it is running with domain user account not a local user account.

In the task scheduler, last run result is showing the task is currently running (0x41301). I can confirm csript is running in the process bar but nothing showing up visually.

I am running the task with domain admin user.

It seems that it has something to do with user account.

Please share your thoughts..

Security auditing on 2008 R2 broken

$

0

Hi,

I have two 2008 R2 domain controllers in my domain. I recently changed the Domain Controllers Default Policy in order to troubleshoot a DNS problem. According to http://blogs.technet.com/b/askpfeplat/archive/2013/10/12/who-moved-the-dns-cheese-auditing-for-ad-integrated-dns-zone-and-record-deletions.aspx, I enabled the option "Audit: Force audit policy subcategory settings" and added audit of Directory Service Changes in DS Access under Advanced Audit Policy Configuration. The result was that security auditing stopped altogether, no further entries are logged in the DC's security logs.

I tried to fix that as described in http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/0486c801-8980-4afa-8fee-8cc1409c3ee2/auditing-policy-on-2008-r2-dcs-not-working?forum=winserverDS, but nothing has changed, I am still not getting any security events. I then restored the DC Default Policy from a backup but still no success.

What else can I try?

Cheers, Georg.

Root CA and User Certificate Auto enrollment

HI All,

  I have Windows 2008 Std DC and installed the CA Role.

  Configure the Default Domain Policy to following 

Computer 

Public Key Policies/Trusted Root Certification Authoritieshide
Propertieshide
Policy Setting 
Allow users to select new root certification authorities (CAs) to trust Enabled 
Client computers can trust the following certificate stores Third-Party Root Certification Authorities and Enterprise Root Certification Authorities 
To perform certificate-based authentication of users and computers, CAs must meet the following criteria Registered in Active Directory only 

USer

Public Key Policies/Certificate Services Client - Auto-Enrollment Settingshide
Policy Setting 
Automatic certificate management Enabled 
Option Setting 
Enroll new certificates, renew expired certificates, process pending certificate requests and remove revoked certificates Enabled 
Update and manage certificates that use certificate templates from Active Directory Enabled 
 
Show certificate expiry notifications Disabled 


Create the Copy of User and Workstation template and set to  auto enrollment.

This is set for Domain Users not for Authenticated Users? In GPO security filter is set to Authenticate users.

I just create the test user but he can get only workstation cert not user cert?

I'm trying to switch off OneDrive using Group Policy. However the only entry is for SkyDrive, even in the most recently released ADMX files (30th June 2014) and this doesn't work for OneDrive.

I've seen screenshots of it being in Group Policy, but don't know where people have got that from. See:

Strange behaviour of "add workstation to domain" option

Hello, I'm adding some workstations to a win 2008r2. I have set "administrators" group for "add workstation to domain"  option for default domain policy (windows settings-security settings-local policies-user right assignment).  In most cases, when I try to add a workstation to the domain, I am prompted for login, in some few cases no login is not required. I'm wondering why...

Thanks

gents,

when adding a Client to my GPO, I just can do it one by one and always have to enable the COMPUTERS object type first which is quite time consuming on 20+ Clients.

Is there a way to enable the object type COMPUTERS by Default?

Cannot get Folder Redirect to work on RDS Server

$
0
0

OK here is what I am trying to do..

Windows Server 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services

I want to redirect all user profile folders (Desktop, Music, etc...) to a remote share \\server\share  to which the share is actually only giving Read-Only rights.  Except for Documents to which they can save there on the RDS Server itself.

I had a server drives hidden (A:, B:, C:, D:) hidden so they could only save to network shares and their local computers.  However, the people in the UK complain that saving to their local computers is just painfully slow  (the RDS Server is in the US).

So, Now I'm only blocking the Server C: drive.  I have a SUBST going on pointing B: to the user profile folders (needed for a different application anyway).  I need to have the "B:\Documents" open for these guys to save to however, I want to block saving to any of the other profile folders.

What I tried to do was to set a GPO up like below:

  • Computer\Admin Templates\RDS\Session Host\Profiles
    Set path for RDS Roaming User Profile Enabled (pointing to \\Server\Share)
  • User\Windows Settings\Folder Redirection\Desktop
    Basic (Redirect everyone's folder to the same location)
    Path \\Server\Share
    Grant Exclusive rights to Desktop - Disabled
    Move contents to the new location - Disabled
    Apply to older systems - Disabled

First, is what I am trying to do even workable?

Next why can't I get it working.

why some settings are located in windows settings node while other are located in administrative template node?

hi friends

when we look at any GPO in Group policy management snap-in, each GPO has these four main sections

1-software settings     2- windows settings       3- administrative templates         4- preferences

my question is, what logic or criteria exist about dividing OS settings into these four parts?

what shared characteristics exist in windows settings node & what shared characteristics exist in administrative templates node?

its confusing. because some settings about windows exist in windows settings node but some other settings which are again related to windows, are located in administrative templates node.

any help please.

thanks in advanced

Drive Mapping via GPO; Not All Drives are Mapping

$

0
So I have various department drives mapped for convenience under our Public Drive. In that mapping, I have various shares set out with Item-Level Targeting. All the drives follow the format of \\SERVER\Public\DEPTNAME. I have created specific Security Groups for each one of these so that the right people get the right drive mapped. Included in this is a general all user mapping for the Public root and then each user's home drive. Some users all drives map perfectly. Others are seeing the Home and Public but not the department specific. I am unsure on what the variables are that is causing a different result for the same formula. All OUs show that the GPO is been Inherited properly.

Copying files using GPO startup script

$

Hello

I am using a startup script via GPO to copy files into locations requiring admin access (hence I can't use login scripts).  This works perfectly when the server hosting the source files is a Windows box.  However, if I move the files to a server running Solaris, it stops working.  If I run the script manually logged into a test machine it works normally.  I assume that this is some kind of authentication issue.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this is not working and how it can be resolved?

Thanks

MSS Settings (registry entries)

$
0

I have being assigned to look into a group of users which either they belong to the same OU or different one, but looking at these MSS settings, some users can query the registry and other users can not. I have ran the gpresults and I can not find the settings explicit as others registries I might see. I know some are being configure because when I query the registry in some users I get an entry; such as

reg query HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters /v DisableIPSourceRouting.    

1. Which is best approach to narrow down where exactly these settings are overwritten.

2. I there a tool that allows me to do this.....or the process needs to be done manual...

3. I read an article which says in roder to see these settings in the GPO editor, I need to include the .adm template for this   
    settings. which is the easier way, some say revise the inf file. (Machines are in a Windows 2008R2 and Windows 7)

These are the settings, threre are more but these are the only one that the scanner complains.

CCE-8513-4:MSS: (EnableICMPRedirect) Allow ICMP redirects to override OSPF generated routes

CCE-9348-4:MSS: (SafeDllSearchMode) Enable Safe DLL search mode (recommended)

CCE-9426-8:MSS: (KeepAliveTime)How often keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds

CCE-9458-1:MSS: (PerformRouterDiscovery) Allow IRDP to detect and configure DefaultGateway addresses (could lead to DoS)

Hi

I have 300 servers Windows 2008 R2, multiple servers are modify by clients(because application server and clients is "local Admin") . The clients modify LOCAL gpos, when a client try to modify a GPOs domain, the domain GPOs is re-apply, but if my GPOs domain is "not configure" the local GPOs is apply.

I search a tool compare a "template server" with 300 servers and create a report with a  GPO difference between "my template server" and all clients servers (all server in a same domain).

Thanks

Environment:  Shared use computers running Window 7 Professional and MS office Suite; Windows 2008 Standard server, Windows 7 EC Domain Policy and MS Office 2007 ADML Template downloaded from Microsoft. WIndows 7 Accounts OU.

I am in the process of developing a shared use computer lockdown policy for several Windows 7 computers that will made available in my client's computer lab.  I need to use a group policy setting to remove the Shut Down button on the logon screen of the Windows 7 client computers.  I am editing the Windows 7 EC Domain Policy to user accounts in a Windows 7 Accounts OU that I created.  I am using the Group Policy editor in the Group Policy Management Console.   Please let me know the best practice for accomplishing this using Group Policy editor.

Thanks.

P.S. I tried a setting recommended in the following link in the Windows 7 EC Domain Policy which did not seem to work.
