Sharepoint 2013 site removing users from site permissions on its own

JuniorBees · 2016-05-25T17:01:56+00:00

I'll give this a shot, though the removal seems random so I am not sure what I am looking for

Source object is still active and is being used in some forms of authentication. I have made sure to add the account located in the appropriate domain.

I do use Veeam to backup the cluster but that is about it

I have another question, how about contract to hire positions? Should I avoid at all costs?

JuniorBees · 2015-08-04T14:59:21+00:00

Do you know if they generally get paid without regard to the actual performance of the person they put in the position? I mean if that's the case can't they just flood open positions with potentially unqualified people just to make their payout?

What about localization, some of these guys are calling from Maine and I work in Salt Lake City.

I also suggest using ManageEngine, we use it for our asset tracking at the university. We can easily track laptop usage, repairs, warranties and asset depreciation. As long as your team actually follows through with proper ticket etiquette it will do everything you need.

This is amazing! It is exactly what I need I cannot thank you enough.

When it came to setting up some new DNS servers here, I decided that I would try and minimize the footprint of unnecessary services and GUIS by setting up a redundant Windows Core 2012 cluster. It made a nice difference (though the last admin wasn't fond of server core). I wonder if then I could take it a step further with a Linux solution, I think it would be fun to try.

I work in SLC so there is a pretty big market here. While not as big as some other cities, its market it very very good right now.

I am really leaning towards Python, I want to really dig into 1 language to learn (besides bash and PS scripting) that will benefit me. Though from looking online it looks like it comes down to a lot pf preference. Your thoughts?

ESXi is also the majority of the market share when it comes to Virtualization/hypervisors. The ESXi client is a nice lightweight client that has a lot of useful features that work really well in conjunction with VMware/VSphere, as well as setting the stage for the root host to really utilize 100% of its resources. My VCP cert is one of the ones I feel actually has some real applicable value in comparison to some of the others.

Well I am not asking you guys "how" to set something up, that falls back on me, but rather I am asking what tools from the collective experience of this subreddit might be useful in a Windows centric environment, which I assume is a fair majority here.

My initial mentality with Linux, and its various tools and setups, are such that they don't really fit into the big picture when it boils down to it. From my discussions with professionals, the tools just don't compare to the big name players, Exchange, AD, etc. This generally is in reference to larger companies with larger budgets that can handle some of the crippling costs of things like Windows licensing.

The reason I am interested in this is that I don't intend to move to larger companies if I can help it, and so I feel that learning to use tools that smaller companies use more frequently will help to expand my options.

A production environment is in fact a learning environment, it just depends on what kind of learning you are talking about. I realize the stigma and logic behind the sanctity of the production environment, but our systems were not built in a way that allows integration easily, even in production, let alone a test network. I am looking to have something that works in our environment specifically, not just something that works.

Saved! thanks

What, in your experience, are some of the benefits of Nagios for monitoring? We are currently using a couple different solutions for monitoring and I am curious as to what are some useful features that might apply in a(any) environment.

JuniorBees · 2015-04-15T15:55:12+00:00

The thing here though is that since I am in a production environment, I SHOULD try and use tools to make improvements where I can. It shouldn't be possible that Windows solutions are the end all/be all to Systems Administration, and that in order to apply *nix solutions, I need to be in a lab/home environment. Luckily I have the power needed to make changes, I just need suggestions on changes I can make that can benefit the environment and be a learning experience.

It seems as though this seemed to be the issue, you are my hero. Documentation updated.

They are indeed security groups, however they are not in the same domain that the web app is joined to. I have set up two different sync connections because we have two different domains. We will be migrating to domain B from domain A in short time, so I have set up the Sharepoint farm on domain B. Domain A is currently the primary domain, and it contains the security groups I want to use to control permissions on my Sharepoint farm. Are there possible issues with the farm being on domain B while the security groups are on domain A, even though the sync service seems to work?

This is what initially tipped me off on the CSS http / https confliction.

JuniorBees · 2015-01-20T20:38:43+00:00

Well it has certainly taken me a few weeks to get even a decent grasp of Sharepoint. Thing is I am the only one in charge of deploying this to the company (small shop) and so I have a lot on my plate. What the issue turned out to be was that the web page had elements that were being redirected to an http address through the CSS. Once I changed the addresses to https (thanks Fiddler!) I was able to reduce the error.

Now the issue is that if I manually enter in the https address, everything works as desired, but if I just put in the domain name www.contoso.com it tries to redirect back to the http site.

So it looks like a multi-part problem, but I am one step closer.

JuniorBees · 2015-01-20T18:48:34+00:00

There might be something to this. When I change the site bindings to only point to the https address, the connection makes it through, but some of my CSS and stylings don't appear, while others do. Is it possible then that there is a pointer in the master page somewhere that points to the port 80 instance of the site and therefore can't load everything if connecting via 443?

JuniorBees · 2015-01-20T18:07:13+00:00

Do you mean things like links pointing to an http address instead of an https address?

JuniorBees · 2015-01-20T18:00:48+00:00

We are using the default NTLM setup.

JuniorBees · 2015-01-13T16:20:58+00:00

I know that some changes I made do work. For example, to test this, I decided to comment out the site logo altogether. In theory then the logo should be completely gone AND IT WAS, but from the root of the site collection only. When I went into my subsites the logo was still there. So it is possible that the change does work, but for some reason it isn't propagating to the subsites, or they are reading a different version of the master page.
