SP and Active Directory synchronise
Hello,we use SP and Active Directory.If I add an user to Sharepoint and later change for example his e-mail. In Sharepoint remains the user without the new e-mail. If I delete user from SP and add again, the user wiil with the new e-mail.The Question: How can I syncronise the change in AD and SP?Thanks in advanceSebastian

It seems that your contentdatabases are not in sync. You should run stsadm -o sync -listolddatabases 30 this will show all the databases that have not been synced in past 30 days considering they might have got moved or deleted. Next, run stsadm -o sync -deleteolddatabases 30 this will deletes old records corresponding to these databases. It does not delete the databases themselves. this should fix the sync issues.I LOVE MS..... Thanks and Regards, Kshitiz (Posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.)

Hi there A change a user property in Sharepoint it will not update Active Directory. However, a change in Active Directory will update the user account if the profile imports have been setup correctly. Couple of things to check out: 1: Check the User Profiles synchronisation and this is carried out in your User Profiles and Properties section in the SSP Go Shared Services Administration / Shared Services / User Profiles and Properties. Configure the Profile Import and set these for full crawl and incremental. 2: Confirm the profile synchronisation is working correctly Keeping the information in the user information lists up to data is a task that is handled by the Profile Synchronisation and the Quick Profile Synchronisation timer jobs. By default the first job runs once every hour, the second one runs every couple of minutes and is incremental. The first time user data is replicated from the user profile to the user information list of a site a full update is needed. So the Profile Synchronisation job needs to run in order to get the data replicated to the site and this may take up to an hour. If you believe that information is not synced between the user profiles and the user information lists in one or more sites you can request a list of content databases that have not been synchronized for x number of days by using the following stsadm sync command: stsadm -o sync -listolddatabases <x number of days> If one or more content databases show up in this list you can clean up the sync list so they can be added to the list again. stsadm -o sync -deleteolddatabases <x number of days> For further information on Sync check this out: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263196.aspx Hope this helps Cheers Geoff
