Cannot Set Folder Share Permissions - No Objects

[Chris]

My PC (XP SP1) is on a Windows 2000 domain with 2 DCs.
I can't set permissions (except Everyone, or, using the Shared Folders
Wizard, Administrators) on shared folders, as the objects (user,
group, computer names) do not show.

Help is very welcome..

I can access over the network shared folders on other PCs on the
domain, as appropriate.
Simple file sharing is not selected.
Using PCs on the same domain, I can set share permissions OK; the user
etc names appear and can be selected.

netdiag (version 5.1.2600.0 2001) is OK (appended) except :
[WARNING] You don't have a single interface with the <00> 'WorkStation
Servi
ce', <03> 'Messenger Service', <20> 'WINS' names defined. (I think
this is OK)
&
[FATAL] Kerberos does not have a ticket for
host/Tech.naitauba.local.(genuine?)
&
LDAP test. . . . . . . . . . . . . : Passed
[WARNING] Failed to query SPN registration on DC
'Mercury-2.naitauba.local'. (dont know about this).

One DC is an upgrade from an NT4 PDC, but I dont know when this fault
started.

I have hunted through the forums and have:
(to get browser service working:
HKLM\SYS\CCS\services\browser\param\maintainserverlist to Y
(to clear ID 1054 errors:
HKLM\SYS\CCS\services\tcpip\param\"DisableDHCPMediaSense" =1
(to get secure channel working: netdom reset tech /domain:naitauba
compared Local Security Policy to a good machine.
stopped my Zonealarm.
selected Simple File Sharing - rebooted - unchecked it.
netdiag /fix
done the registry mod to force TCP not UDP, from
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=244474
stopped/restarted KDC service on DC "zeus"
then ran netdiag /test:kerberos /v (appended) from client.
[FATAL] Kerberos does not have a ticket for host

My PCs boot messages look good:
no 1053 or 1054 errors
Event ID: 1704 Security policy in the Group policy objects has been
applied successfully.
Event ID: 35 The time service is now synchronizing the system time
with the time source zeus.naitauba.local

Is the Kerberos error genuine?
Is it a sidetrack from my sharing permissions issue?
DC "zeus" shows 672 and 673 success messages as I log on from my PC.

How can I restore access to those user etc names to set permissions on
my shared folders ???

Help very welcome. Im stuck at this point. First usenet post.
Thank you.

I saw that part saying time got synched. Just curious and want to establish
that the time wasn't changed (you can change the zone, but not the actual
clock) since Kerberos has a 5 minute time skew tolerance.

I couldn't find it in your post, but did you try to reset the computer
account in AD?

You can always opt to remove and re-join the machine.

I compared times of DC and my PC, viewing DC with Remote
Desktop/Ternminal Services, and times are within a second.

Yes I did remove my PC from domain to a workgroup and later rejoined.
Later I removed it again, changed the PCs name, deleted my old PC
account from the AD, rejoined the domain (retested problem), finally
renamed my PC back to its old name. And in the midst of all that it
went from being a Computer object in the AD to being a Desktop object.
(i dont know the diff, except all other client PCs are Desktops)

I ran klist tgt and klist tickets and kerbtray on server DC and
on my PC and compared tickets, first time Ive done this but my tickets
look fine in comparison (i have more cos I have ones for the other DC
also).

Other user logons on my pc have the same issue, incl when logged on as
the domain administrator.

Im waiting for a DC reboot so kerberos auditing on it can start.

Ms article 280830 - "Kerberos authentication may not work if user is a
member of many groups". I'm a member of about ten groups. Didnt seem
from the article that this was too many.

When I reboot and logon my events incl an event ID 540 with package
NTLM, and then 538s and 528s.

my lsass.exe process is running

I downloaded/installed the Group Policy Management Console on my PC,
"specified DC could not be contacted..error:invalid syntax" (i hadnt
specified a DC at that stage). At the next option, to choose a
different DC, both DCs are listed but "Look in this domain" and its
domain name are grayed out, & still cant contact them. "The
naitauba.local forest could not be contacted and will be removed".

klist purge and purged all 7 tickets. klist now shows zero tickets.
Rebooted. now 5 tickets already. Retested, still cant set shared
folder permsiions as cant view any objects to share to.

Kerberos thing is looking like a sidetrack, despite the netdiag FATAL
error.

I dont know where to go from here.

Thanks
Chris

Boy, you've been busy!

I assume you uninstalled Zone Alarm? Sometimes it take a complete removal.

I remember you saing you didn't select Simple File sharing. Did you disable
F&P or MS Client or anything else?

Can I see an ipconfig /all from the DC and from this client please?

Thanks

Ace,

Your input is much appreciated.

I just now uninstalled Zonealarm and after rebooting, still have the
sharing issue.
File & Printer Sharing is enabled for client's Network Connection.
Client for Ms Networks (provider: Windows Locator) is checked.
ipconfigs are appended.

At various times I have disabled or uninstalled all kinds of things,
as performanmce tweaks, or to fit Ghost image system partition backup
on 2 CDs only. So I wouldnt be at all surprised if something necessary
is uninstalled or disabled.

I compared my local security policy and ControlPanel Network settings
with a good XP client.

My (client's) newly installed Group Policy Management Console is
interesting. Open it, no domain, rt-click, Add Forest, type in our
domain name, tells me it matches "Forest:naitauba.local.
Domain:naitauba.local". I select Yes to add it, error as described
earlier "the specified DC could not be contacted...Invalid syntax".
"Choose a different DC", several options all same issue. Have to
"Remove the Domain.." and then when close window. "Group Policy
Management. The RPC service is unavailable."

So I work thru Ms KB 224370 re RPC service :
net start rpcss ( hey, i knew my RPC & RPC Locator were running)

ping mercury-2 OK ping Zeus OK (the 2 DCs)

"C:..\chris.NAITAUBA>netdom verify tech /domain:naitauba

Thanks for the update. Been busy once again. Curious., 2 NICS in the DC? You
have two NICs, and one of the NICs has two IPs and the IPs and subnets from
both NICs are on the same physical subnet. On top of that, it's configured
for WINS on one of them and NetBIOS is disabled on the other.

These two NICs have the same gateway??
Are these two NICs teamed?
Which one is on the top of the binding order? I'm assuming Local Area 2 is
the top of the binding order since that is the one with WINS enabled and
what the XP machine uses for DNS.

Honestly I've never seen anything quite like this, so I'm sure there's a
solid reason for this. Can you briefly describe this arrangement and its
purpose please?

Now depending on what service or app is trying to connect to it, there seems
that there can be some confusion here, especially on what NIC is responding
and what IP when it gets resolved thru DNS. Usually we suggest to never
multihome a DC, so looking at this, I guess this falls under that category,
but not exactly sure what's happening here and if it will cause any issues.

Curious, don't remember if I asked, did you use Sysprep for the XP machine
or used a 3rd party SID changer or none at all? If none, I've seen issues
with duplicate SIDs on the network, and this *appears* to be taking on the
form of one of them, but not sure. There;s alot going on here!!

Ace,

No SID changer or Sysprep, the client was a unique install of 2000
back when it was an NT4 domain, then client upgraded to XP, then the
PDC (Merc-2) upgraded to 2000 and a clean build 2000 server added
(Zeus).

Will get back to you re the DC arrangement with NICs etc.

Chris

Ok, would be curious of why you're using this configuration.

Ace, hi you.

The DC has 2 NICs for historical reasons that no longer apply. We had
a proxy server and two internet links, hi & lo speed, and were
attempting to control what traffic connected over which link. Also it
seemed that two NICs would help throughput.

Nowdays the idea is that one NIC is Windows functions (DHCP,DNS,AD..)
and one is our email server (First Class).
We are a smallish domain; the second DC is a backup for the
first(Zeus), and originally was not intended to always be online
(nowdays it mostly is).
So the NICs are not teamed, or bound together.
They do have the same gateway.

ipconfig for the second DC Mercury-2 is attached.

Client has been getting lots of 1030 & 1058 events. For the last 3
days. Always a pair, against the same user. So at one moment one of
each against my user name, and then at another time, 30 - 90 mins
later, one of each for user SYSTEM. Always the same GPO #.

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1058
Date: 7/23/2004
Time: 3:18:09 PM
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM (note: or NAITAUBA\chris)
Computer: TECH
Description:
Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO
CN={31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9},CN=Policies,CN=System,DC=naitauba,DC=local.
The file must be present at the location
<\\naitauba.local\sysvol\naitauba.local\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini>.
(The network path was not found. ). Group Policy processing aborted.

So Ms KB 314494 :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Mup
DisableDFS is 0 (I added this less than 3 days ago).
"The DFS client is turned on if the value in the Value data box is 0".
OK.
Also :
"This issue may also occur if "Everyone" has been removed from the
root drive NTFS file system permissions." - which it had been ! So I
enabled this (Hoping..). Rebooted. A pair (1030, 1058) against me and
a pair against user SYSTEM result.

BTW, Sysinternals File Monitor (all these new tools) has a few LDAP
errors:
4:16:25 PM explorer.exe:1456 OPEN C:\Program Files\Common
Files\System\Mapi\1033\NT\LDAP: NAME INVALID Options: Open Access:
All
And always simultaneous with an identical message saying FILE NOT
FOUND.

Thinking back, I believe I have never seen the objects to set share
permssions against, since we upgraded to AD. But this doesnt mean it
started then, as its not a task I need to do often.

Regards
Chris.

Fixed !!!!!!

Hi everyone!


I just thought I'd post that I had the same problem. (When trying to add users. groups or computers to NTFS Security, the list of Active Directory would not come up. Error: "The network path was not found" )

It was Zone Alarm. It was installed but not runing. When I uninstalled it, everything was back to normal.

Thanks for eveyone's time and effort on this one. Saved me from a re-install!!



Dave.
