Wsus duplicate sid windows 7

Here you can see my interactive logon session, displayed with the Sysinternals LogonSessions utility:. Note that number following the account name, 7fdee, matches the logon session ID shown by LogonSessions:. Every process running in my interactive session, for example, has a copy of the token that they inherited originally from the Userinit.

To successfully connect to a share you must authenticate to the remote system with an account known to that system. When you access a file on the share, the file server driver on that system uses the token from the logon session for the permission check, leveraging a mechanism called impersonation.

This is called generalizing the image, because when you boot an image created using this process, Sysprep specializes the installation by generating a new machine SID, triggering plug-and-play hardware detection, resetting the product activation clock, and setting other configuration data like the new computer name. But again, to help along a check-in, use this command. Jrp78, your clarification was very helpful. I didn't get what Adam meant by affected computers until you replied.

I left everything alone for a week to settle down and it seems I must have something else going on Out of about 95 servers only 34 are showing in the WSUS console. This could be 1 or more systems, limited to the number of systems you have in your network that are showing the symptoms of not being able to report into the WSUS server. So one thing you can do here to confirm whether you still have duplicate ID problems is take note of the servers showing up perhaps export the list so you have a full list.

Then check the list again in an hour or two. See if it's still all the same servers or if the list of servers has changed while the count has not. If you see this, it means you still have duplicates out there and as they check-in, they take the place of another duplicate that had checked-in earlier. Steve says:. October 17, at am.
