Office365 and OnSite AD Sync

[trivers1982]

Hi All

 

Pulling my hair out over Office365 and Azure AD Connect at the moment. The constant knocks at the door for email passwords doesn't help!

 

At the moment, my main aim is to have it so users in my AD are synced up to Office365, so on site passwords are the same as O365. I have installed the Azure AD Connect system (and re-installed 50+ times) but nothing is syncing, when I run the task the Full Import shows the Adds, the full sync shows the connectors have flow updates and projections for each of the users. The Export doesn't have anything in (not sure if this is correct!).

Not sure if its a possible reason but students are [email protected]al on site, but on Office 365 they are [email protected] . I have used IDfix on one of the test users and changed the domain suffix to [email protected] but no joy/sync.

 

I have 1500 users already in Office365 (with equivalent accounts in on-site AD) and want to sync their passwords as well. Is it possible to sync them after creation and keep all the emails etc they already have?

 

Sync on the Office365 and Azure page say sync was in the past hour so something is happening.

 

For something that should be easy I seem to be struggling to get it working, I have screenshots of all the configs I am trying. I would really appreciate some ideas/help or the details of someone who can get it working for me and pay if needed!

I feel your pain. Log a support request in the Admin Centre. MS have been fantastic with getting ours sorted.

 

They aim to call you within 2hrs of you looking an "identity" support request.

 

They failed in and talked me through it and showed me what when wrong and how to fix it!

[trivers1982]

I didn't think it would be supported! I will give it a try!

[dblight]

They should tell you if it ain't but may even give you a solution?

try opening up ADSIEDIT

goto properties on one user

change the PROXYaddress to SMTP:[email protected]

SMTP has to be caps

 

 

resync

[trivers1982]

No luck. Still no exports, the sync recognised the Update though.

can you confirm Azure AD Connect version ?

can you confirm SQL version ?

what OS is the DC?

can you post the VIEW CURRENT CONFIGURATION ?

did you ever have DIRSYNC installed?

[trivers1982]

AD Connect Version - 1.0.8667

SQL is the version that installs with the installer (2008R2 express I believe).

DC is Server 2012 R2 but I am not installing it on the DC its on an application server which is also Server 2012 R2.

Dirsync has never been installed.

 

This is the current Config-

Filter Objects to sync by group: What group did you assign?

[trivers1982]

The group with all our students in. But I think it must be something strange, I have been on the phone to MS for 1 hour now and he is still trying things!

[andydis]

would you try creating a new group (call it ADsync ) and adding 1 user into it?

ideally the same user you changed the ADSI edit with , then force a sync

Looks like MS have fixed it!! Just waiting confirmation!

Happy Days!

[trivers1982]

Yay all working! A 3 hour call to ms support. 4 reinstalls and a complete removal later.

 

Turns out its because I was trying to filter by group and ou! It's one or the other.

 

Tested it with no ou and a new group and it worked great!
