LDAP only inactive users query - active-directory

i have a ldap query that only searchs for active users.
The query is the following:
"(&(objectclass=user)(objectcategory=person)(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)(whenchanged>=#LAST_DAYS#))"
I assumed that i only had to remove the "!" to get the inactive users, but i was wrong. Any ideas?

Are you sure that (whenchanged>=#LAST_DAYS#) is correct? If yes, try to query accounts without using userAccountControl and see if it returns more accounts than when you use =2. 2 stands for UF_ACCOUNT_DISABLE and corresponds to "Account is disabled" flag in the Account Properties (user may not login to the domain). You can also go to AD and see if accounts have that flag enabled.

How to search LDAP by user name and domain

I have the AD Global Catalog configured. There are several domains in catalog. How can I query all users from one of subdomains?
I have tried such query buy nothing found
(&(objectCategory=user)(dc=sub,dc=domain,dc=com)(sAMAccountName=Administrator))
How can I fix this query to make it working?
You can use the below query to get the users from one of the subdomains in AD Global Catalog :
(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(memberOf=cn=Domain Users,cn=Users,dc=sub,dc=domain,dc=com)(sAMAccountName=Administrator)

Possible to login to Snowflake using SSO without a user account or default role?

I'm working on improving the user experience for our org when logging into snowflake. We have adfs sso enabled and are provisioning mapping users to roles using azure ad. I had a colleague attempt to sign in with SSO who didn't have a user account created in snowflake and they were greeted with
"The signed in user <user#email.com> is not assigned to a role for the application (Snowflake)".
My question is, is it possible to have users sign into snowflake without being mapped to a default role, perhaps only have the public role assigned, and without being synced with azure ad.
If it is, i'd appreciate any pointers to documentation i can reference. The goal is to get all users that can SSO, to by default be able to login
AD group syncing occurs every 40 minutes in Microsoft, and I don't believe it's possible to force a sync or change this time frame. In addition, like the OP mentioned Snowflake cannot connect to an on-prem ADFS server so all users must be in Azure AD.
AD group syncing is somewhat configurable via the "Scope" (see Step 15 of this tutorial)
If your Scope is set to "Sync only assigned users and groups", you can either
Change the scope to "Sync all users and groups" (may cause issues if you don't want to import all this data into Snowflake)
or
Confirm that your desired users' AD group is one of those assigned to be synced to Snowflake (requires manually assigning these users, or that all of these users are part of the same AD group that you choose to sync to Snowflake).
By seeing the error its not allowing user who don't have appropriate role for the application.
In these why can't we create generic stored procedure to assign default role and instance to new user based on the group they belong to.! Each time if we add any new user then we have to run stored procedure to assign default role and object prior to his login to snowflake.

Where to check LDAP query from Cloudera Navigator?

I configured our Cloudera Navigator service to authenticate via LDAP. I'm able to login in Navigator, however I instantly get an error:
You are not authorized to view this page
When I log in with full administrator and try to search for LDAP groups to add, I get nothing returned, so I think there is something wrong with my configuration. Where should I be able to see how does the LDAP query look like?
I use identical settings for LDAP as I used when configuring Cloudera Manager, where everything works fine. The LDAP group I'm looking for has a "Navigator" admin role assigned in CM.
I would use this tool to monitor which queries are performed on the AD :

Ldap query in AD for user that have at least one group?

(Sorry for my terrible English)
I need to do a search with Ldap in AD that finds users who have at least one group, any suggestion?
Thanks a lot
Ended up as simple as it can be.
(&(objectCategory=user)(memberOf=*))
The reason is, memberOf LDAP filter does not count for "primary" group membership, which for AD DS is normally "Domain Users" and all users are normally members of that group. Therefore, if memberOf is populated, then the user is a member of any other group but primary.

Active Directory Ldap query to get all users of the same primary group of a user

I need a LDAP query for windows server 2012 AD starting from the username of a user and getting all his collegues. In my AD collegues ad identified with the same PRIMARY group.
Is it possibile or should I need a two step query?
Thank you.
Unfortunately, LDAP filtering syntax does not allow for sub-queries within the expression.
You'd have to break this into two parts - first get the user's DirectoryEntry record, then use his PrimaryGroupID in a separate filter, something like :
(&(objectClass=user)(sAMAccountName=JSmith)
Now let's say JSmith is part of the default "Domain Users" group (513) :
(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(primaryGroupID=513))
This will return all users that share that same PrimaryGroupID.
