APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Windows Services for Netware 4.0



This article was previously published under Q253716

SYMPTOMS

In the Event log, you receive the following error message:

Event ID 8020
The synch agent services failed to modify account [username] on the NetWare server [servername] due to error 10256. DSMN is not able to synchronize any of the users on the NetWare server. Any new user added to NT and migrated to NetWare will work fine.

CAUSE

This issue can occur when the DSMN server tries to synchronize the accounts on the NetWare server.

The NetWare server refuses the request. The actual NetWare error is 255(xFF).

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, you may need to delete the users from NetWare and migrate them again from Windows NT by fully synchronizing the NetWare server using DSMN.

MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft recommends that you apply user rights on the NetWare server using Groups. When you delete a user from the NetWare server and DSMN is synchronized with that server the user and groups the user was in are added to the server again. Permissions you assigned to individual users are lost and need to be reapplied.


Additional query words: DSMN sync synchronize netware
