Nav 2013 R2 - adding trusted domain user results in error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by gfoskin 4

We are trying to add a windows auth user from a trusted domain into Nav.

The result when trying to validate the windows user ID - which we can lookup and select  - is

" A call to Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Management.DSObjectPicker.DSObjectPickerWrapper.InvokeDialogAndReturnSid failed with this message: Some or all identity references could not be translated."

However if I run a powershell command from the Nav server per script below it's returning a valid SID for the user details entered from the trusted domain.

" $objUser = New-Object System.Security.Principal.NTAccount("DOMAIN","USER")
$strSID = $objUser.Translate([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier])
write-host $strSID.Value "

    hi,

    seems to be a problem with the trusted domain configuration (delegations).

    follow www.mibuso.com/.../viewtopic.php;f=23

    try to add the user with powershell.

    follow msdn.microsoft.com/.../jj672917(v=nav.71).aspx

    sample:

    create a new Microsoft Dynamics NAV user based on a Windows user account that has the user name Chris from the domain Cronus.

    C:\PS>New-NAVServerUser MicrosoftDynamicsNavServer -WindowsAccount Cronus\Chris

    Thanks Jonathan,

    We found that manually adding the account - not AD look and retrieve - and then manually adding to SQL solved or worked around the issue.  So the powershell would achieve the same result.

    did you check if there are any AD issues? you can check that also using tsql (e.g. fetching an ad account by giving the SID).
