Preparing AD synchronization

  • UPN is not blank
  • UPN must be unique
  • UPN must be registered with office 365
  • Remove illegal characters

All this checks will be performed by ldfix tools

Download and run it (click query), if there are any errors it will be highlighted

Azure AD connect is a tool that synchronizes user identities, so the same set of login credentials can be used to access resources on both your on-premises and cloud environments.

Azure AD connect requirements:

  • verified domain in Office 365
  • You should not have PowerShell Transcription Group Policy enabled.
  • You must have .NET Framework 4.5.1 or later versions and Microsoft PowerShell 3.0 or its later versions.
  • Every Azure AD connect server requires a DNS resolution, regardless of whether it is for the Internet or the intranet
  • Your service account should be located in the domain if your proxy server requires authentication.

Download AD connect
