Unable to Add Permissions for Active Directory users - error accessing directory

$

Hi all,

 

 

Running vCenter, logged in as an Active Directory user with Administrator priviliges to the server, I am usable to Add Permissions for domain accounts, and just get errors:

 

 

Right click on Datacenter > Add Permission > Select Read-only > Add users and groups > Select Domain > (list is NOT populated with users)

In Users box enter my AD user account > Click Check Names > "The following names were not found: xxx"

Enter AD user account in Search box > Click Search > "A general system error occurred: error accessing directory"

 

 

The only KB articles or threads i can find relate to changing the Active Directory timeout.  I've done this but it didn't help.

Any ideas why i can't delegate permissions? I don't believe we have any Group Policies that are resticting access, but i'm not sure which log files I should i be looking in to find the real problem.

 

 

Thanks,

 

 

Kevin
