Re: Desparate in SF: ADAM on XP Laptop in Workgroup



Lee,

First, thanks for your reply.

No, I do not have any interesting networking components installed.
I'm a simple man with simple needs; in this instance, to build a C# app that
uses ADAM.

I forgot to mention that i did change that registry setting (LSA) from 1 to
0.

If i try to connect with ldp.exe and uncheck the connectionless checkbox, it
says:
**********************************
ld = ldap_open("<machine name>", 50000);
Established connection to <machine name>.
Retrieving base DSA information...
**********************************
where <machine name> is the actual name of my machine...

if I leave "connectionless" checked, I get the following:
**********************************
ld = cldap_open("<machine name>", 50000);
Established connection to <machine name>.
Retrieving base DSA information...
Server error: <empty>
Error<82>: ldap_parse_result failed: Local Error
Server error: <empty>
Getting 0 entries:
-----------
Server error: <empty>
**********************************

If i then try to bind as the logged in user, i get the following:
(pasted exactly from ldp)
**********************************
0 = ldap_set_option(ld, LDAP_OPT_ENCRYPT, 0)
res = ldap_bind_s(ld, NULL, &NtAuthIdentity, NEGOTIATE (1158)); // v.3
{NtAuthIdentity: User='NULL'; Pwd= <unavailable>; domain = 'NULL'.}
Error <81>: ldap_bind_s() failed: Server Down.
Server error: <empty>
**********************************

I will look up adamuinstall as you've suggested in the meantime.

Any ideas? I am

Hi

do you have any additional "interesting" network components installed
e.g. netware client or VPN client?

Search ADAM help file for "forceguest" and set the corresponding
regkey to 0 (regardless of remote or local access).

What happens if you try to connect with ldp.exe?

See also adamuninstall in ADAM help for forcible removal of an instance.

Hello,

First, I am a complete AD novice.
(I am a C# developer, so I'm not an IT novice...)
I am looking to develop an application using ADAM but I cannot get ADAM to
work on my IBM T43 Laptop running XP Pro SP2 in workgroup mode.

I've installed ADAM with no errors.
I can create instances with no errors (I've created instances with and
without partitions just fine)

However, when I attempt to connect to the instance using ADSI EDIT, the
machine just hangs.

* I am 100% I am connecting to the correct server/port combination (I even
took screen shots during the install just to check myself.)

* I have tried using the machine name and IP Address for the server name.
The service IS started. I even rebooted my machine just in case that old
catch all troubleshooting tip happened to work.

* The Windows firewall is OFF and I have no other firewall running. I
also
saw a service named "Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing(ICS)"
that
I have also stopped, you know...just in case.
I am it is something silly stupid as a buddy of mine who has a laptop with
XP/workgroup got it to run on his first try.

* I have SCRUTINIZED my system tray and closed/exit'ed out of any
applications that weren't necessary, again...just in case.

* When I attempt to remove an instance (any of them) using Add/Remove
Programs the machine hangs while it tries to connect to the instance.

* I have tried connecting as "The logged on user" as well as by using an
explicit user/password combination.

* My user is in the Administrators group, but just for kicks -since i was
having so much fun already- i logged on as the Administrator and still got
the same results.

* I have checked, re-checked, and then checked again the system
requirements
and sure that i should be in the zone: XP Pro with SP2, workgroup mode,
ADAM
w/ SP1.

* The only obvious difference between my buddy's machine and mine was that
he had .net framework 2.0 installed whereas i had 1.1; i've installed 2.0
with no joy.

Please, please, please help as I have wasted a week.5 scolding ADAM and he
is still being uncooperative. I am...

Desparate in San Fran...
