can i use ldp.exe to search for a guid 607F86B5-7FBD-4CFF-A946-4D3518E45061 ?

My exchagne 2003 server keeps giving me an error in the application log
LDAP Modify on directory nwpcascdc01.nwpsc.com for entry
'<GUID=607F86B5-7FBD-4CFF-A946-4D3518E45061>' was unsuccessful with
error:[0x35] Unwilling To Perform. DC=nwpsc,DC=comhello all
I think this guid may belong ot a user, but i dont know how to search for
the guid using LDP

Many thanks for any help

Sure, but it's easier to describe using the following single-lined
equiv. LDIFDE syntax within a command prompt -

ldifde -f con -d "<GUID=607F86B5-7FBD-4CFF-A946-4D3518E45061>" -p
base -l 1.1

Hi

When i ran the command you originally gave me it listed the guid in question
as being in th Exchange enterprise admins group, so when i ran ldp.exe and
drilled down to the Exchagne enterprise admins using LDP, I could see
ocsmail\0ADEL:9b760d2d-fecd-41ae-817f-7aae317f5a27,DC=com . I want to remove
this because this object belogs to an exchange 2003 server and domain that
was manually removed, and as you can see not all attributes of the manuall
uninstall were correctly removed. Now in my production exchagne 2003 servers
in the app log i get errors that say "LDAP Modify on directory
nwpcascdc01.nwpsc.com for entry '<GUID=607F86B5-7FBD-4CFF-A946-4D3518E45061>'
was unsuccessful with error:[0x35] Unwilling To Perform.
DC=nwpsc,DC=comhello all

Also ocsmail\0ADEL:9b760d2d-fecd-41ae-817f-7aae317f5a27,DC=com is listed in
my ADUC but i cant remvoe it, i cant even remove it using ADSIEDIT.

Before going any further, how long has this been a problem and what
happened to the domain that previously contained the user causing the
current error?

This has been an issue ever sincethe domain and exchagne server were removed
manually. I followed a KB on how to remove a domain and Exchange 2003
manually. The exchange 2003 and domain are part of a forest that is no longer
in service, there was a trust in place for this forest and my production
forest, and the exchange server in question was originally isntalled in the
same admin group and routing group as my production exchagne org.

Now this forest is no longer, and i am not getting any AD erorrs in my
production environment about this forest, but i do get the error as
previously noted before on my exchange server, it is unwilling to remove
object guid this object guid matches the guid of the exchange domain servers
of the exchagne server that was manually removed, so i am thinking if i can
use LDP to manually remove this guid from AD then i will stop seeing these
errors

The tool you use isn't really of importance here, it's the interfaces
the tool uses and whether it is able to provide a means of clearing up
this stale phantom ... for the moment though, we'll stick with LDP.
Please try the following -

1. run LDP
2. connect and BIND against an offending DC
3. Select Browse --> Modify
4. Set the DN to null (or nothing, nada, zip squat, empty)
- I think I got that across ;o)
5. set the attribute to checkPhantoms
6. set the value to 1
7. click Enter
8. click run and note the results in the right pane to ensure success
9. remove the entry in the entry list
10. now set the attribute to doLinkCleanup
11. set the value to 1
12. click enter
13. click run and note the results in the right pane to ensure success

I would also find it useful to have an understanding of your forest
structure; # of domains, # of DCs, OS versions etc.

Finally, have you removed the trust relationship to the old forest.

Hi

I followed the bewlo steps but when i run throgh the stpes all i get back is

***Call Modify...
ldap_modify_s(ld, '(null)',[1] attrs);
Modified "".
-----------
***Call Modify...
ldap_modify_s(ld, '(null)',[1] attrs);
Modified "".

I have connected to the correct DC. My forest environment is 3 forests that
all have two way external trust in place. My forest has two trees and two
domains.

Example domainA.com and domainB.com domainA.com is the foerst root domain,
and domainB.com is in its own tree and seperate domain, both domains have
there own exchagne 2003 servers, and both exchagne servers are part of the
same admin and routing group.

thanks for help, it will be a great day when i open up the application log
and dont have to look at errors that say" unwilling to remove object"

Please try the following -

1. run LDP
2. connect and BIND against an offending DC
3. Select Browse --> Modify
4. Set the DN to null (or nothing, nada, zip squat, empty)
- I think I got that across ;o)
5. set the attribute to checkPhantoms
6. set the value to 1
7. click Enter
8. click run and note the results in the right pane to ensure success
9. remove the entry in the entry list
10. now set the attribute to doLinkCleanup
11. set the value to 1
12. click enter
13. click run and note the results in the right pane to ensure success

I would also find it useful to have an understanding of your forest
structure; # of domains, # of DCs, OS versions etc.

Finally, have you removed the trust relationship to the old forest.

This has been an issue ever sincethe domain and exchagne server were
removed manually. I followed a KB on how to remove a domain and
Exchange 2003 manually. The exchange 2003 and domain are part of a
forest that is no longer in service, there was a trust in place for
this forest and my production forest, and the exchange server in
question was originally isntalled in the same admin group and
routing group as my production exchagne org.

Now this forest is no longer, and i am not getting any AD erorrs in my
production environment about this forest, but i do get the error as
previously noted before on my exchange server, it is unwilling to
remove object guid this object guid matches the guid of the exchange
domain servers of the exchagne server that was manually removed, so i
am thinking if i can use LDP to manually remove this guid from AD
then i will stop seeing these errors

Hi

When i ran the command you originally gave me it listed the guid in
question as being in th Exchange enterprise admins group, so when i
ran ldp.exe and drilled down to the Exchagne enterprise admins
using LDP, I could see
ocsmail\0ADEL:9b760d2d-fecd-41ae-817f-7aae317f5a27,DC=com . I want
to remove this because this object belogs to an exchange 2003
server and domain that was manually removed, and as you can see not
all attributes of the manuall uninstall were correctly removed. Now
in my production exchagne 2003 servers in the app log i get errors
that say "LDAP Modify on directory nwpcascdc01.nwpsc.com for entry
'<GUID=607F86B5-7FBD-4CFF-A946-4D3518E45061>' was unsuccessful with

Also ocsmail\0ADEL:9b760d2d-fecd-41ae-817f-7aae317f5a27,DC=com is

Does the trust to the now removed forest/domain still appear in Active
Directory Domains and Trusts?

Allow replication to occur overnight and review the group that exhibited
the stale membership, let me know how it looks.
