Why a normal domain user on a domain joined Computer can see all users and groups on the domain through win32_account Class? Can this be prevented?
This is by Msft default design. "Authenticated Users" are allowed to read Azure AD objects (in general, some specific attributes excepted).
You can change this in AD object rights, but Msft is usually not recommending this, at least for the domain root. You may try it with the object properties of a Ou and move users below this.
You can edit these rights in "ActiveDirectory Users and Computers":
right click OU
select "Properties"
select Tab "Security"
remove "Read" from "Authenticated Users"
Or
create a User Group for selected users you want to prevent from browsing
add this group to Security and add "Deny" for "Read"

For two of my snowflake user accounts, an icon is showing up on the right that has a popup when I hover over it:
Why is this link showing up for two of my users?
Obviously I'm now confused about what these two "users" are and how they were created:
Are these users really service accounts?
If so, what is a snowflake service account and how does that differ from a user?
How do I designate some user accounts as service accounts and what are the pros/cons of doing so?
I've tried clicking the button and it just takes me to the user account details page and I don't see any "create user" type of language on the account details page.
I've tried to find anything in Snowflake's documentation that indicates a difference between service accounts and user accounts but I only find blog posts about how you need to treat your service accouns with care (and implement password rotation policies, etc).
I can't find anything definitive (yet) about designating users as "service acounts". (The closest thing is this stackoverflow about how service accounts are the same as normal user accounts.
Obviously there is something special about these two user accounts, though, since the snowflake UI is indicating these two users are actually service accounts.
The icon appears when a comment is set for the user. This comment can be set by yourself for a user to determine what is the purpose of it.
You may un/set it using the statements:
alter user user1 set comment='Create New User for Service Account';
alter user user1 unset comment;

I need some help understanding the behavior of AD and the security around it.
In a nutshell I have a requirement to automate just in time elevation to certain privileged groups, where Domain Admins is one of the groups we need to add membership to.
Here is a summary on the way I set things up
I created a new group called DomainAdminJit which is a member of "Domain Admins", I add a service account as a delegate to DomainAdminJit to modify membership where I expect to add users to this group instead of the domain admin group directly, for organization purposes mainly.
This works fine but a few minutes later all permissions are to the service account are being stripped, researching this turms out to be done because the AdminSDHolder is reverting those permissions.
My initial reaction was to add the service account with write properties and write permissions to the AdminSDHolder container, but somehow that doesn't work.
I do see the service account now at the DomainAdminsJit group however I get insufficient rights when attempting to add a user to the DomainAdminsJit using that service account.
What am I missing and how do I ensure that service account is always able to add members to a group that is a member of Domain admins and not have the permissions revert?
Your help would greatly be appreciated
Thank you
We are using Drupal Commerce in our website.
We have multiple roles in this website ex. Customer, Customer representative, Content editor and Admin.
Users with "Customer" roles will be allowed to purchase product and make orders, Edit profile.
Users with "Customer representative" roles will be allowed to manage all users that are having "Customer" role. Which will include profile edit of any customer, edit customer's orders etc.
We are not sure how to make this functionality working with Drupal7 and Workbench module.
Any suggestions/ideas?? Thanks in advance!
This module allows site builders to set up fine-grained permissions for allowing "sub-admin" users to manage other users based on the target user\'s role.
The module defines new permissions to control access to edit/delete users - more specific than Drupal Core\'s all-or-nothing 'administer users'. It also provides and enforces a 'create users' permission.

Apologies for the newbie question, fairly new to LDAP and UnboundID.
I currently have an UnboundID filter that synchronises users who belong to an Active Directory group.
--set include-base-dn:cn=Users,dc=testdomain,dc=net --add "include-filter:(memberOf=CN=Application Access,CN=Users,DC=testdomain,DC=net)
The behaviour I am seeing is that when I add a user to the group "Application Access", no Synchronisation occurs.
However if I edit the users AD profile whilst they are a memberOf "Application Access" then the user profile is synchronised.
Is is possible to synchronise users when they join a group?
Thanks in advance.
In Microsoft Active Directory the MemberOf value is the DN of an entry that the current entry is a member in a Group and is referred to as a Forward Reference.
A Pseudo Attribute Microsoft Active Directory
MemberOf is a Pseudo Attribute. This implies You can not monitor the MemberOf attribute for changes (Like with DirXML)
Within Microsoft Active Directory MemberOf is flagged as "NO-USER-MODIFICATION" (or System-Only)[1]; This means you can NOT update the attribute. In order to add a user to a group you have to write the user's dn to the member attribute on the group object.

In our system we use Active Directory to store users and then Crowd server is used to authenticate users to the Atlassian systems.
I need to implement a mechanism to add users to the groups in crowd when a new user in AD syncs with crowd. If user email is #xyz.com they should be automatically added to xyz group and If user email is #abc.com they should be automatically added to abc group etc.
How can I do this?
