DPM setup could not access to Active Directory
On the DPM newsgroup, one of the customers is facing this problem of DPM installation.
The installation can continue but when i want to install an agent there a message:
unable to connect to active directory database...
ID: 7
Microsoft response:
With the assistance of Microsoft PSS it seems that we've been able to
resolve this problem. It turns out to have been an active directory
permissions issue. To resolve the problem we did the following:
1) Open adsiedit (You may need to install adsiedit first - part of the
Windows 2000 Support Tools)
2) Find the computers OU in the left hand pane, right click on it, and go to
properties.
3) Go to the security tab and add the "authenticated users" group to the ACL
and give it read permissions.
4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 on the domain controllers OU.
Go back to your DPM server and you should be able to deploy the agent by
manually entering the appropriate NetBIOS server name.
