by @ Wednesday, April 28th, 2021. Filed under tech, updates

I have released new versions of AdFind and AdMod. Yeah I know I just said that I had released the last versions of both. I know. Trust me I know. I had packed the code away. Then I had a single week where I was alerted to one absolutely horrible bug in AD (https://blog.joeware.net/2021/04/19/6068/) which […]

Do NOT Use msds-memberTransitive and msds-memberOfTransitive

by @ Monday, April 19th, 2021. Filed under general, tech

Ok, let me pull that title back a teeny tiny bit… Do NOT Use msds-memberTransitive and msds-memberOfTransitive UNLESS you are absolutely positive that the number of values returned is guaranteed to be less than 4501 values.

by @ Tuesday, April 13th, 2021. Filed under general

AdFind and AdMod Production Releases

Hi, I just wanted to touch base on the upcoming releases. I thought I would be releasing new production versions of AdFind and AdMod at the beginning of the month. Obviously that did not happen. I ran into a few bugs I needed to deal with and most recently ran into something I really wanted […]

ESAE (aka Red Forest) is finally dead. About time.

by @ Sunday, December 20th, 2020. Filed under tech

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/security/compass/esae-retirement ”We have found that ESAE projects are often detrimental to overall security posture as they are high cost, difficult to use and support, and provide a limited set of security (only Active Directory administrators and only preventive controls).” What took so long to figure that out? Oh, they knew, they just didn’t have something […]
