Hello Experts.

Version: 7.0.0.101393 P01

Wondering if there is anyone out there that has had success in updating Active Directory Attribute "logonHours" ?

This AD attribute is an OctetString and I'm struggling to understand the correct format.

To prevent someone from authenticating to AD one can set the attribute zeros.

accessTU - Command processing errors

I've tried the following, byte, decimal, hex, etc... with and without spacing.

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00\00

\00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00 \00

\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00

I have seen the WILL_NOT_PERFORM when you don't have sufficient right to perfrom the operation. So might want to check the service account permissions.

Not commenting specifically on how to set logonHours, if an attribute value is OctetString, then you should pass the base64 encoded string to AFX.

  Hello Pradeep.
  
  Thank you! I've done a few test scenarios to eliminate any known causes, however, AFX will still not accept base64 encoded string. Is there anyway this could be tested from your end? Could you provide an example?
  
  From the linux command line, I created a ldif file and executed a ldapmodify command using the base64 encoded string to test access permissions on the service account. This work well - here is a string which is to allow login always.
  
  logonHours:: ////////////////////////////
  
  Examples of (working) base64:
  allow login always: //////////////////////////// allow login never: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 9 to 5 on Monday through Friday: AAAAAAD/AAD/AAD/AAD/AAD/AAAA

  Thanks in advance, Andrew

    I would check with something like a Apache Directory Studio to manually add this attribute to an existing account.

      Hello Pradeep,
      
      Thanks again. I used Apache Directory Studio to update the attribute using the LDIF file and got the a simillar error.
      
      My gut feel is with the java ldap library, it is not encoding it correctly or may have something to do with attribute name.
      
      The method of approach was:
      
      1. Export the account in full as an LDIF file. Interesting to note, the LDIF export showed the logonHours attribute value as a base64 and the display name as "logonHours:: ////////////////////////////" note the double colon
      
      2. I've modified the value and import it back into AD the the failed.
      
      Error while importing LDIF

Also something to consider is using an SSH/PowerShell AFX Connector and calling this via PowerShell script.

if (-not (Get-Module ActiveDirectory)){            
  Import-Module ActiveDirectory            
}     

## allow logon 8am - 6pm Monday to Friday            
[byte[]]$hours = @(0,0,0,0,255,3,0,255,3,0,255,3,0,255,3,0,255,3,0,0,0)            
            
"`nMicrosoft"            
$name = "UserA"            
Get-ADUser -Identity $name |            
Set-ADUser -Replace @{logonhours = $hours}

Thanks Jayson. This is quite creative.

Due to tight timeframes of the project I'm working on I won't be able to setup an interface like this in time.

I'm thinking of using the local linux ldapmodify command with a shell script to execute as a workaround.

Try sending this instead of the Base64. As i think AD is defaulting to hexadecimal.

8AM to 6PM

0,0,0,0,255,3,0,255,3,0,255,3,0,255,3,0,255,3,0,0,0

Thank again. However not dice.

You gave me the idea that rather try and guess the appropriate format I changed one of the AD collectors to try and collect this field (attribute) and see how it is displayed. Unfortunately, it resulted in a stacktrace error. I'm now lead to believe this product does not handle this AD attribute.

Product Enhancement might be on the cards here.....?

Here is the stack trace:
