Cannot resolve SID in Windows Server 2008

While performing file permissions in Windows Server, sometimes one may notice that the SID of the users are not resolve properly especially between child domain and parent domain.

To resolve this issue, local policy of the affected system needs to be changed as shown below.


Open up the local group policy editor by running the command gpedit.msc on the windows server and navigate through Computer Configuration > Security Settings > Local Policies > Security Options and disable the three components

  1. Domain Member: Digitally encrypt or sign secure channel data (always)
  2. Domain member: Digitally encrypt secure channel data (when possible)
  3. Domain member: Digitally sign secure channel data (when possible) 
Restart the Server to refresh the policy settings. This resoved my issue.

Access denied for user 'bacula'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

While installing a test backup server (Bacula), I got the error "Access denied for user 'bacula'@'localhost' (using password: YES)" while connecting to the MySQL database. Root access was fine. Grant permission as well as the user password was correct and thus it took me quite some time to understand that though the user password was correct, it wasn't encrypted like the root when checked from Webmin.  Thus from mysql command, instead of - mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = 'baculauserpassword' WHERE user = 'bacula'; mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES; I change it too  mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = PASSWORD('baculauserpassword') WHERE user = 'bacula'; mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES; After getting the password encrypted, I can finally connect to the MySQL server and run the Bacula.

Things went fine except for few users having issues like: Cannot set default printer Cannot print directly from Outlook client Thanks to the link  http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/can-not-set-any-printer-as-default-printer  the issues were resolved following the steps there. The fix, which worked for me yesterday, is simple: Go to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\ -If the Windows key doesn't exist, create a new key; Then check for the following entry (or create it if it is not there) Name: Device Type: Reg_SZ (String Value) Value: winspool,Ne00 Should you be unable to save it, just make sure the user has Full (or special) access to the Windows key (by right-clicking on the key) After that I ran the "gpupdate /force" as the drivers were pushed using gr...
