AaronA.97300 (Teaching Strategies, LLC) asked a question.

AD Agent "not a member of the Domain Admins Group" Error

Over the weekend we started to see users having trouble with password resets - they'd receive an error that their "password could not be changed. Please contact your administrator." After some troubleshooting I determined that the agents seemed unable to write back the password changes to AD. I filed a ticket with Okta yesterday, as my troubleshooting wasn't producing results.

 

As of this morning, all of our AD Agents are reporting that the OktaService "account is not a member of the domain admins group". Nothing has changed about this account in almost 2 years; it's a member of Domain Admins, and has delegated permissions to the domain, as indicated in AD Agent Prerequisites: https://help.okta.com/en/prod/Content/Topics/Directory/ad-agent-prerequisites.htm.

Furthermore, I attempted to create a new service account, following the procedure, but got the same result: "account is not a member of the domain admins group".

 

I am at a loss. Any assistance/hints/tips would be appreciated.
