Active Directory UDF - Help & Support (III)

[water]

So the line I told you to comment/remove in post #511 is still active.

[OrangeCoder]

hey water - good morning - I just checked and the line is commented out

just to confirm: it was only one line I was commenting out in AD.au3 like 3757 that reads

 

If $oComputer.Domain - $sDomainName Then Return SetError(4,0,0) 

 

correct ?

[water]

Correct.

This line should now read

; If $oComputer.Domain = $sDomainName Then Return SetError(4,0,0)

You get @error = 4 but this is the only place in function _AD_JoinDomain where @error  = 4 is being set

[water]

Something else: It seems the script needs to be run with elevated Admin permissions.
Could you please insert

#RequireAdmin

at the top of your script?

[OrangeCoder]

CHECK- I do have #RequireAdmin in the script

 

Thank you for confirming the comment on the AD.au3 cause it was indeed commented out

 

However when I run it - I still get @error=5 @extended = 1355

[water]

We need to check that we pass valid data to JoinDomainorWorkgroup. Could you please insert this line

ConsoleWrite($sDomainName & "||" & $sJoinPassword & "||" & $sJoinUser & "||" & $sOU & "||" & $iFlag & @CRLF)

before

; Join the computer to the domain
$iResult = $oComputer.JoinDomainOrWorkGroup($sDomainName, $sJoinPassword, $sJoinUser, $sOU, $iFlag)

in function _AD_JoinDomain.
Replace any sensitive information with xxx before posting here

I think I follow - you want me to add this line of code in which file ? 

 

The AD.au3 or the _AD_JoinDomain.au3 file ?

 

I think it's the first - but just wanted to confirm

[water]

Confirmed! It's AD.au3

XXXX||xxxxxxxxx||xxxx\xxxxxxx||OU=xxxxx,DC=xxxx,DC=xxxxxxx,DC=xxx,DC=xx,DC=xx||35

I apologize if this question has already been addressed, but I haven't found any references to it....

I just downloaded and included AD.au3, and I'm getting an error from the UDF that $KEYWORD_NULL and $STR_NO_COUNT are not declared.  It occurs in the _AD_GetObjectsInOU (KEYWORD_NULL) and _AD_GetObjectProperties (STR_NO_COUNT) functions.  I've attached a screenshot of the errors.  Am I missing something?

[water]

Seems you run AutoIt 3.3.10.2. Those variables are part of later versions (at least 3.3.12.0 I think).

Hey water - where you talking to NDTerri or talking to me ?

[water]

NDTerri.

[NDTerri]

Thank you, water.  I upgraded to v 3.3.14.2 and it fixed the problem.  Since I had been running v 3.3.10.2, I had assumed AD 1.4.4.0 would run based on a previous post:

Thanks for the clarification and for your QUICK reply.  I really appreciate it.

[water]

Thanks for the heads up. Fixed!

Hey Water - when I tried credentials that didn't have the dot in the username I still got a @error=5, @extended = 1355

#RequireAdmin
#include <AD.au3>
_AD_Open("XXXX\xxxxxxx", "xxxxxx", "DC=xxxx,DC=xxxxxx,DC=xxx,DC=xx,DC=xx","xx-xx-x.xxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx.xx.xx","CN=Configuration,DC=xxxx,xx=xxxxxxx,DC=xxx,DC=xx,DC=xx")
If @error Then Exit MsgBox(0, "Error", "_AD_Open: @error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended)
_AD_JoinDomain(@ComputerName,"","","OU=xxxxxxxx,DC=xxxx,DC=xxxxxxx,DC=xxx,DC=xx,DC=xx",35)
If @error Then
    Exit MsgBox(0, "Error", "_AD_JoinDomain: @error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended)
Else
    MsgBox(0, "Success", "_AD_JoinDomain: @error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended)
EndIf
_AD_Close()
Exit

EDIT: I Have Played with the code a little and got it to do what I want. 

 

 

I am attemping to use the function  _AD_GetGroupMembers ()

 

In the AD.au3 it says _AD_GetGroupMembers () returns a one-based one dimensional array of names (FQDN) that are members of the specified group.

 

Is there a way to have this function return the array of names as Display names? I have tried to use _AD_FQDNToDisplayname but it just returns a "-1"

I am still learning Autoit and am not very good with Arrays just yet. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

Figured out what I was doing wrong.

OrangeCoder,

maybe this site helps you to diagnose the problem: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc961817.aspx

Glad you could solve your problem

[OrangeCoder]

hey water- I am going to look into that - thank you

however I am not understanding - something hopefully you can clear up for me

If I call AD Create Computer - it works without issue

So that would mean that AD Open - works

My credentials are also accepted if I could successfully call AD_CreateComputer and the computer actually shows up in AD

 

So would I have a problem authenticating ?
