Solve : Active Directory Domain Services changed user accounts.? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>On my Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, the AD DS I installed hid the user accounts in someway and I can't log in to them. The files are still there and reg. files say where the files are but the login is gone.There may be a filter in place. Look for a "funnel" icon &<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/amp-363144" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about AMP">AMP</a>; see if it's on. If not your accounts are probably deleted. Try hitting refresh. If that doesn't work, do a search to find the accounts and locate them that way.<br/>If you can't log in to them, they may have been deleted. Do you have backups?Neither of these work as it is a problem within Windows itself. i did not make a backup which i have learned the hard way is super important to do. <br/><br/>When ever I try to recreate the accounts, it makes the folder but adds the computer name next to it. (Ex: John.travelcomputer)I do <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/believe-395244" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about BELIEVE">BELIEVE</a> that it is somewhere in the Registry or SAM <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/file-11330" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FILE">FILE</a> or both that the problem exists. The SAM file does not contain the login for the other accounts so I believe this to also be part of the problem.If you made your server into a DC it gets rid of local accounts. do you know how to bring them back, or is that not possible.so i just have to bring it back to where i purchased it?

When you install Active Directory, it disables all of the local accounts by design. Pretty sure there's no way <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/around-884554" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about AROUND">AROUND</a> it. But you should still be able to create domain accounts and use those to log in.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/> Quote from: Robert Tabiano on February 22, 2011, 09:37:23 PM<blockquote>so i just have to bring it back to where i purchased it?<br/></blockquote> <br/>What?Not sure if removing AD will bring back the local accounts he created. It will bring back the default local accounts. <br/><br/>Like michaelwlewis said, you can just create the accounts again but this time as domain accounts.</body></html> | |
