Hi. We have 2 Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition servers with Active Directory and Services for Unix 3.5. We also have a Linux server. At both W2k3 servers, we installed Active Directory and SFU 3.5. The Linux server should synchronize its passwords with these from AD, using LDAP and NIS over AD/SFU. It worked fine, but then we installed W2k3 SP2 and it stopped synchronizing. It set every new user's password to ABCD!efgh12345$67890 in the "msSFU30Password" variable and didn't update passwords from users which were already in the domain before it stopped syncing. After installing the hotfixes KB936529 and KB913030 it still didn't work properly. I changed my AD-password some times but it was also ABCD(...). Below a little overview of the version numbers, the *.exe and *.dll files have... c:\windows\system32 Pswdsync.dll 8.0.1969.54 Psxdll.dll 8.0.1969.54 Psxdrv.sys 8.0.1969.54 Psxss.exe 8.0.1969.54 psxrun.exe 8.0.1969.54 c:\SFU\admin cligrps.dll 8.0.1969.1 clilocks.dll 8.0.1969.1 mapper.dll 8.0.1969.1 nisctrl.dll 8.0.1969.1 pcctrl.dll 8.0.1969.1 Sfuadmin.dll 8.0.1969.1 c:\SFU\common mapadmin.exe 8.0.1969.1 Nfsadmin.exe 8.0.1969.1 nis2ad.exe 8.0.1969.1 nisadmin.exe 8.0.1969.1 nismap.exe 8.0.1969.1 rpcinfo.exe 8.0.1969.1 scsetup.exe 8.0.1969.1 sfuadmin.exe 8.0.1969.1 tnadmin.exe 8.0.1969.1 ypcat.exe 8.0.1969.1 ypclear.exe 8.0.1969.1 ypmatch.exe 8.0.1969.1 yppush.exe 8.0.1969.1 cladmin.dll 8.0.1969.1 mapadmrc.dll 8.0.1969.1 nisadres.dll 8.0.1969.1 nisprop.dll 8.0.1969.1 setupres.dll 8.0.1969.1 sfucom.dll 8.0.1969.1 SfuWbem.dll 8.0.1969.1 SolarLRM.dll 8.0.1969.1 C:\SFU\nis nissvc.exe 8.0.1969.1 c:\SFU\setup AmIDcAdmin.exe 8.0.1969.1 sfusch.exe 8.0.1969.1 So what to do now?
