you mean target a DC with the group policy settings right? pushing the CSE to all machines should be fine as long as you aren't deploying any group policy settings for LAPS to those maschines.

There isn't a reason for the client to exist on a DC since it would never be utilized, for obvious reasons.

Even if you deployed it and GPS were deployed perfectly, the last thing you want is for some idiot to move your DC out of the designated OU for DCs and into one that has the policy defined. Is this an extreme edge case? Absolutely, but not deploying the client to DCs removes any possibility of failure.

Will it even do something there? I assume it would rotate the domain services recovery password which creates a circular dependency but that seems like something MS would catch for and stop.

i would love for this to happen because then i'd actually be allowed to murder someone.

bullshit aside, if your domain can be crippled by having the built-in domain administrator account password changed then you've done something wrong. from a supportability POV it is much easier to just deploy the CSE everywhere and then target via GPO (edit: especially if you're doing orchestration like we are). if someone does something as stupid as what you suggested then they get fired.

out of a cannon.

into the sun.

edit2: i've just remembered that you have to specifically delegate privileges to the SELF security principle in the OU containing computer objects so that they can update their own LAPS-related attributes. if you don't delegate these same privileges on the Domain Controllers or any other OU then the devices associated with the computer objects within that OU will be unable to reset their local admin password as they cant update the attributes on their relevant computer object.

ofc that is all moot if you delegate full write for all extended attributes or some poo poo

apparently it will change the domain built-in administrator account password? tbh i haven't tested that scenario

Yes, that's my understanding. Lol at expecting MS to "catch and stop" anything, especially something free like LAPS.

Guess what most terrible computer janitors do at the top level of the domain because they don't understand Active Directory let alone AD security? Or more accurately, any company that doesn't have meaningful audits.

Also, what scenario is made easier by deploying the client everywhere rather than select locations? It's trivial to exclude stuff like DCs in SCCM. Or any deployment tool really, even if you're using Group Policy to do it. I'm not trying to pick on you here, I just loathe the shotgun approach for systems management like that. If it has no purpose being somewhere, don't put it there.

Pile Of Garbage

deploying servers from a single template that is role-agnostic. much easier to have the CSE pre-installed than to deploy it after the fact once the server's role has been decided. i dont understand why you "loathe the shotgun approach for systems management" when establishing a common universal baseline is the best approach to systems management in almost all situations. imo you prolly have some hangups as to the efficacy of group policy or something

also dont talk to me about hosed up AD permissions. ive inherited an environment where every single ACE is 1000% pissssss but ive still seen worse than you can begin to imagine

I inherited a domain where the previous admin kept a secret "offline" domain controller that he only booted once a month to patch, replicate, then shut back down. His plan for recovery from an AD compromise/wipe was to shut down the live DCs and bring his offline controller as the sole DC and run that until he could rebuild the others. gently caress just setting the authoritative restore flag on a restore job.

Guess how well an AD performs when 1 of the 3 DCs is never online and the zone firewall drops all traffic instead of the clients getting a dst unreachable response from the router?

Lol, our domain is still on FRS.

To each their own. The client is incredibly tiny so I don't consider it a necessary to be baked into a template or image, and I'd prefer to mitigate all risk that I can even if the chance of it causing something stupid is some minute percentage.

I don't have hangups on group policy and how reliable it is, I have hangups about having reliable coworkers that won't do stupid things. This problem might be worse where I am, but I don't want to get into a "my stupid workplace" pissing match in the Sec thread. Most of the people I work with don't really understand AD or GP.

We also didn't patch servers until I got here and automated it all.

At the end of the day I'm just glad you guys are using LAPS. It's the smart choice.

one of our dbas recently stopped being able to navigate to the backup appliance from his desktop using the cifs shares. turns out the backup appliance, using firmware from december 2016, only supports smbv1. boss tests this out on his laptop by re-enabling smbv1, and is now in the process of re-enabling smbv1 on the dba's and other workstations. maybe we'll update the firmware on our backup appliance next week :iiam:

a good PM is great to have, but i can see why they usually suck, it's a thankless job that nobody with any technical skill wants to do. you have to interface with the stakeholders and argue about product roadmaps in meetings all day, and then the developers and QA folks who actually build and test that stuff don't report to you

so what I mean is the only people who don't use pw managers are those who haven't been burned yet aka the unburned

I guess there are a few toasted retards floating around but then there always is

but ya don't do like what I did and use the same ow everywhere is what was trying to say
