abstract
This is a patch for the Novell Identity Manager Active Directory Driver that ships with 3.6 or with 3.5.1 It will take the version of the driver to 3.5.4. The build that will show in trace is still 20080822. However, the build dates of the new files for Exchange are from 20081208. It fixes some memory leak and registy modification problems. It also implemented the LDAP Incremental values control feature. Changed AD Driver to force Powershell to same DC as the driver. It also fixes some problems with Exchange. It may be applied to either 3.5.1 or 3.6 since both versions share the same activation.
details
Overview: IDM 3.6/3.5.1 Active Directory Driver Patch.
System Requirements: IDM 3.5.1 and the Active Directory Driver from that version of IDM. Or IDM 3.6 and Active Directory Driver from that version. For the implementation of the LDAP Incremental values control feature, this patch requires the Window 2003 domain be in the "Windows Server 2003" functional level.
Installation:
1. Stop driver and remote loader service if running remote.
2. Copy the patched addriver.dll from the \32 directory to \novell\nds\ if running locally on Windows 2003 32-bit. If the driver is running on remoteloader, use the addriver.dll file from the \32 directory if running on Windows 2003 32-bit systems use the addriver.dll from the \64 directory if running on Windows 2008 64-bit systems.
Step 3 is only for IDM 3.5.1 users. If you installed with 3.6 the fixes in this file are already there.
3. Copy the patched PassSyncConfig.cpl to \Windows\System32"(32 bit host) or WINDOWS\SysWOW64 (64 bit host)
Step 4-6 is to fix problems with the driver and Exchange.
4. Stop the IDM_AD_Ex2007_Service
5. Copy the two Exchange service files to C:\Novell\RemoteLoader if driver is running remote or X:\Novell\NDS if driver is local.
The file names are IDMExService.exe and IDMExManagementServer.dll
6. Start the IDM_AD_Ex2007_Service.
7 Start the remote loader if running remote and the driver.
8. Configure password filters if necessary. See documentation.
Technical Support Information:
Current Fixes:
- The AD Driver failed to provision Exchange 2007 accounts on Windows 2008 (x64). The error presented in trace is "Exchange 2007 Exception. code:0x0000274d Connnection Error. Make sure service is Running"
Previous Fixes made since 3.6 shipping:
- Remote Loader hangs when issuing Enable-Mailbox command via AD driver. Bug 417504
Fixes made from 3.5.1 shipping to 3.6
- AD Driver crashes after reconnect from network failure. Bug 381457
- When forcing Powershell to the same DC as the driver, the DomainController parameter was missing in the last AD patch. It has been added. Bug 364791
- AD Driver now forces Powershell to same DC as the driver. Before there were replication delays that would cause "object could not be found" errors. This only happened when the driver was talking to one DC but the IDM exchange service was talking to another. Bug 364791
- Fixed memory leak in AD Query mechanism. Bug 301558
- Fixed issue where Password sync install does not update correct registry key for 64bit filter. During the install of the 64bit password filter to the domain controllers the registry keys for Host Names was only created in hklm/SOFTWARE/Wow6432Node/Novell/PwFilter and no entry was added in hklm/SOFTWARE/Novell/PwFilter. Bug 344553
- Implemented the LDAP Incremental values control feature. Requires the Window 2003 domain be in the "Windows Server 2003" functional level.
The following new driver parameter must be added to the access options section
of the AD driver configuration.
See the IDM 3.5.1 Active Directory documentation for more details. A new section 'Optional Configuration Parameters' section 5.5 will be added to the documentation in the next posting of the documentation for this driver. Bug 330245
