PAM Essentials Directory connection fails with error access is denied -
Descrição
The Directory connection was failing after the service account password change was attempted by Pam Essentials.
Repairing the service account where an admin user provides credentials to repair the service account password allows the Directory connection to be successful initially but later the directory connection fails again.
The Directory Check System task log shows the following error:
Check system failed: Connecting to remote server {Proxy_IP_Address} failed with the following error message : Access is denied. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.
