Hello,
We have an app that uses ldap. We have chosen MS AD LDS due to its multi-master replication, ease of use, etc.
In my test lab I can configure AD LDS to replicate using AD Sites & Services to access the LDS instance.
Azure Windows Server 2012 is configured with AD LDS running under a user with service account privileges (not network service account because it's not part of a domain). The currently logged in user is part of the LDS administrative group I created. This is the same configuration as my lab machine running Server 2008 R2.
On Azure Windows Server 2012 it throws an error. When I select the AD LDS instance (which says it's online), it returns:
-------------
Data from Active Directory Sites and Services [machine1:389] is not available from Domain Controller machine1:389 because:
Directory object not found.
Try again later, or choose another DC by selecting Connect to Domain Controller on the Domain context menu.
----------------
Has anyone else run into issues when attempting to setup replication of LDS on Server 2012 in Azure? Am I missing something obvious? Everything I've been able to find says it should just work.
Thanks,
