Hi Martin, Given your policy it looks like you're also securing traffic from
the clients to their DC/AD server. This is a pretty tricky scenario and is
not supported by Microsoft officially
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;254949) so you need
to exempt client to DC traffic from ipsec. If you still want to secure
client-to-DC traffic there some things you can do to improve the situation
and work around based on your requirements.
In general it's difficult to secure from the DC to the client, because the
first problem is that client has to get policy from the DC as well as
perform other DC dependent boot-up service initialization. If you enforce
IPSec to the DC during this time, these service initializations will fail
because they need a communication link to the DC; however at the at the same
time IPSec is dependent on these services initializing, so we have vicious
circle.
I would suggest as a first cut that you add an additional rule to permit all
traffic from clients to DC (in addition to your all traffic secure rule*);
this will at least confirm that this is the root of your problems. Next you
can either sniff bootime traffic from your clients to your DC and explicitly
exempt only those types of traffic (a painful exercise). Alternatively, I
would reccomend that you keep the permit-traffic-to-DC rule and add
secure-to-dc rules that secure selected traffic (for example http,
netbios-over-tcp etc..) which you know are not use during boot time.
Another important thing, is to make sure that if you are using kerberos as
the authentication method you have it exempted as described in
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=254728 (make NoDefaultExempt is set 0 so
that kerberos is exempted).
* As we discussed in a previous thread, the rules will be ordered by
specificity. And yes the address specificity is more important than
protocol and port. Source and destination specificity are considered equal
in importance.
