Office 365 DirSync

[itgeek]

Hi

 

I have setup office365 dirsync and if I change the users password it will sync and lets them log into the office 365 with the ad account. The problem I have is that the existing password doesn't work only if I change the AD account it will work?

 

has anybody had any issues with this?

 

Thanks

Have you tried forcing an AD sync from your DirSync server? Try the following in PowerShell:

 

Import-Module DirSync
Start-OnlineCoexistenceSync

 

You can also run 'Start-OnlineCoexistenceSync -FullSync' to try and force a full sync as well if the above doesn't work.

I found this issue, you need to perform a full password Sync. This link will tell you how - DirSync: Password Sync Frequently Asked Questions - TechNet Articles - United States (English) - TechNet Wiki

+1 for this. I had this issue a while back.

You could setup ADFS, with this you don't need to sync your internal passwords to 365 to be able to use your internal AD accounts to login

DirSync is much easier to setup mind.

We use DirSync with ADFS, we then don't have the perceived security risk of having our passwords syncing to the cloud.

 

But ADFS also opens up future use too

How can you use DirSync and ADFS?

 

I'm tempted to move to ADFS in our environment but I can't imagine the headache in terms of making it redundant... lose ADFS, lose Office365 logins.

You still need Azure accounts with ADFS. DirSync will Sync your AD accounts to office 365. ADFS will handle the authentication.

You can set the ADFS service to be part of a farm if that helps with redundancy. Only the Admins will need Azure accounts for management (assigning licenses and such).
