Hello,

The changes to be introduced do not influence Adaxes itself. However, at some point, it might become necessary to reset the passwords of the service accounts (specified for AD domains and/or Adaxes service). After changing the password of a domain service account, the password must be updated in Adaxes as well: https://www.adaxes.com/help/ChangeManagedDomainServiceAccount. After changing the password of the Adaxes service account (specified during Adaxes installation), the password must be updated in the settings of the Softerra Adaxes Service Windows service.

Business Rule is not being trigger by ADSI Context command to add group member.

We have a business rule that will update an AD attribute when a new member is added to a group. This business rule works when we use powershell commands or the admin console ... set to trigger "After adding a member to a group". Thank you for your support!
