ADMT error - Access denied

Hi Experts,

I am in a migration phase and I need some help please.

I have running an ADMT server and this server was working since end of 11.2019.
But now I have a problem to select the source domain when I like to migrate some users.

ADMT is unable to connect to domain controller....Access is denied.

Open in new window

The trust is tested and ok.
The user is a domain admin in both forests.
The servers are reachable via PING in both directions.
The local firewalls are disabled on both servers.

Do you have any ideas ?

Any chance you have a single label domain name?

Hi Alex,

I already have set this reg key.

Still I cannot select a source domain controller.

The only other thing I can recommend is going through the security logs and see why it's failing. Rephrase that, I need the error from the security log so we can figure out the issue

Do you have different Domain names or are they similar?

Hi Alex,

the domain names are differnet.

And just remember, it was working last month with this installation.

I understand it was working last month, doesn't change the fact it's not working now and we need to figure out what's happened, as such we go back to the easiest solutions to figure it out.

Have you gone through the security log to find out why you're getting access denied? It should give you more information and then we can go from there.

the error is : 0x80070005

Alex🇬🇧

ok,

Lets clear something up, when I ask you to go into the event log to check the security event that your login is causing, it's because it's got more information in there rather than an 0x code. I don't ask for further information just for the sheer fun of it, I ask for specific details because that's EXACTLY what I need.

That 0x80070005 is a GENERIC access denied code, which is WHY I need the event from the security log, which will almost certainly provide further information about what is going on.

Hi Alex, please be more clear...

From which server you need this log ?

Alex🇬🇧

It'll be on the remote server doing your authentication.

Thanks

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
