How to properly restore (objects in) the 2003 AD database

Published October 2, 2007 |

By Peter Van Eeckhoutte (corelanc0d3r)

Windows 2000 /Active Directory has been around for more than 7 years now. I’ve been using AD for almost 7 years, and due to its stability, I never had to recover a deleted object in AD. (Knock on wood). So it’s not a real surprise to find out that a lot of admins don’t even […]

The following procedure should work for any type of hardware, but I’ve used VMWare (so this procedure is also valid if you want to convert a physical Domain Controller to VMWare). Additionally, the procedure works for Windows 2003 server, but also for Windows XP (professional) Prerequisites : ASR backup .bkf file and the ASR floppy […]

By Peter Van Eeckhoutte (corelanc0d3r)

Anyone managing an Active Directory knows about the administrative troubles and work that can be caused when an object (such as a user) gets deleted. The admin needs to either restore the object, and then manually fill out the attributes (such as password, group membership and so on), or restore a backup of the ntds.dit […]
