    INFO: Active Directory Primary Group cannot be changed when creating a User using DTM

    This article applies to:

    • DTM 3.0

    Description:

     

    When importing users using DTM, the primary group in Active Directory to which users are added is "Domain Users".  This setting cannot be changed.  As a result, DTM will always add users to the Domain Users group.

     

    The attribute for primary group is "primaryGroupID".  This attribute is owned by System Accounts Manager (SAM), so writing to this attribute is not allowed by Active Directory.

     

    The following is a list of attributes that belong to System Accounts Manager and they cannot be changed when users are created by DTM:

     

    ·         badPasswordTime

    ·         badPwdCount

    ·         lastLogoff

    ·         lastLogon

    ·         logonCount

    ·         memberOf

    ·         objectGUID

    ·         objectSid

    ·         primaryGroupID

    ·         pwdLastSet

    ·         sAMAccountType
