AdFind V01.52.00… It is almost time…

Filed under tech, updates

I have stripped out the debugdebugs and the expiration code as I am thinking at the moment that this will be the last build of V01.52.00 barring any bug reports that are serious enough to deal with… I will use it at work for a week and see if there are any issues and if […]

AdFind V01.52.00…

by @ Saturday, December 28th, 2019. Filed under tech, updates

AdFind V01.52.00 is close to release. It went slow because I finally worked on integrating boost::regex functionality into AdFind. Including both match and substitute functionality. The regex components will be considered beta for a few versions as there is a lot to figure out here and how people will use it. Also it isn’t my […]

After, more than <cough>two decades<cough> in a professional role of some sort of ops, engineer, architect, dev ops person in IT or Information Security in very large multinational Fortune 1-50 sized companies I have grown to dislike complexity in a way that some people without my experience may think is unnatural if not completely unhealthy.

by @ Thursday, May 16th, 2019. Filed under tech

For Windows Server 2019 and newer OSes I have decided to add in the numeric portion of the DSA Version String to the “Directory” string that is listed at the top of every run in the header… Any thoughts, comments, and/or feedback before I lock into the decision?

by @ Tuesday, April 2nd, 2019. Filed under perl, tech

I have had quite a few people ask me to get to the getting and get the jwDCLocator.pl script made available for them to start looking at it. So to help those folks out, I am going to do a “quick release” from the Blog and follow up with a release more similar to how […]

LDAP Ping and Determining Your Machine’s Site

by @ Sunday, March 31st, 2019. Filed under tech

Microsoft has a specific method for returning basic information that can be used for finding what site (and what is the next closest site) for any given machine that reaches out to a domain controller with a LDAP query. Originally the query had to be performed over CLDAP (connectionless LDAP aka UDP LDAP) but sometime […]

So very close… Reasonable Effort Platform Agnostic Perl Script That Implements the Active Directory DC Locator Process…

by @ Friday, March 22nd, 2019. Filed under perl, tech

Getting very close to being ready to release the reasonable effort platform agnostic version perl script that will run through the DC Locator process. Note that I intend for this to be a fairly robust script. It finds server (domain controller) site, client site, and next closest site. It polls the DCs validating them to […]

LDIF file for serviceConnectionPoint class for ADLDS

by @ Tuesday, March 19th, 2019. Filed under LDS, tech

So you are sitting around and suddenly want to put serviceConnectionPoint objects into your LDS instance and suddenly realize that they didn’t put the SCP objectclass definition in LDS nor is it an optional LDIF file to add… So I created one using ADSchemaAnalyzer from the ADLDS install… You can find it here http://www.joeware.net/miscdownloads/lds/20190319_serviceConnectionPoint.ldf and […]
