Dear ITproTV MS Superheroes,
I have been on a 6 month stop/start, interruption filled journey to implement LDAPS for our large High School as per best practice, being in a hostile environment internally with students constantly trying to hack us, and foreign state sponored, blackmarket and script kiddies banging on our doors/windows for the variety of reasons they do,
MS have been threatening changes to default to the more secure setup since late 2019, due to the COVID, they have relaxed the timeline a little. Nonetheless it is one of a few top priority projects we would like to implement as soon as possible as we try and remove NTLM, and other legacy vulnerabilities and upgrade to newer Forest/Domain levels as we farewell 2008 R2 etc.
I am unsure if I have misconfigured something in setup, or if there are intrinsic issues on our network, or both (usually both s). I can't find a clear step by step guide for this in the ITpro tutorials, nor online, or quite possibly I'm not processing the answer?
I am receiving constant 2537 msg’s unsure if they are spurious, but things definitely feel off.
Resolution:
Ensure that the account that you designate as the service account has the Create All Child Objects and Delete All Child Objects permissions set to Allow.
Please refere to Microsoft KB below:

This doesn’t seem to work for me no matter what I try, I can’t connect or locate this using ADSI????
To confirm that the service account has the appropriate permissions:
- Open ADSI Edit. To open ADSI Edit, click Start , in Start Search , type adsiedit.msc , and then press ENTER. If the User Account
- Open ADSI Edit. To open ADSI Edit, click Start, in Start Search, type adsiedit.msc, and then press ENTER. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
- In the console tree, right-click the ADSI Edit object, and then click Connect to.
- Ensure that Select a well known Naming Context is selected and that the option is set to Default naming context.
- Ensure that Select or type a domain or server is selected, and then type the name of a domain controller followed by the port number on which Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) is hosted (by default, 389). For example, to connect to a domain controller named ContosoDC1 on port 389, type ContosoDC1:389. The distinguished name of the SCP is identified in the Event Viewer event text.
- Locate the parent object of the identified SCP (the SCP parent object):
o By default, the parent object is the computer account of the computer that hosts the AD LDS instance.
o To determine the name of the parent object, use the path from the event text, without the CN={GUID} portion (which is the name of the SCP that was to be created).
o You must also expand objects in ADSI Edit in the reverse order in which they appear in the event text. For example, given the path CN=GUID},CN=Server1,CN=Computers,DC=Contoso,DC=com in the event text, expand the object DC=Contoso,DC=com first, expand CN=Computers, and then select the Server1 object, because it is the parent location of the SCP. - Right-click the SCP parent object, and then click Properties.
- Click Security.
- Click Add to add a domain user or group account. Ensure that the account that you designate as the service account has the Create All Child Objects and Delete All Child Objects permissions set to Allow.
- To confirm these changes, click OK.
- Return to the Services snap-in, and then restart the AD LDS instance. To restart the AD LDS instance, right-click the instance name, and then click Restart.

Verify :
When an Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) instance successfully creates a serviceConnectionPoint (SCP), Event ID 2535 is logged in Event Viewer. Check for the existence of this event in the ADAM_instanceName log of Event Viewer, where instanceName is the name of the AD LDS instance.
