![]() Of course best practice should always be to install any Office 365 user syncing tool (Office 365 DIRSYNC, Azure AD Services, Azure AD Connect, etc) onto a separate members server. So the plan was now to install Yammer DIRSYNC on the same server as Azure AD Connect (Preview), which as it turns out is the Domain Controller (DC). All of this was prior to getting Yammer DIRSYNC operational. I created a new set of local AD users and used AD Connect (Preview) to get them copied to the Office 365 tenant. ![]() I installed a new clean Windows Server 2012 R2 server in Azure. I created a new clean Office 365 E3 tenant. This attempt to configure Yammer DIRSYNC was completed in a test environment. That, at least, I hope makes you read through the volume of information I’ll detail here with the process I went through. ![]() However, I hope that you are at least somewhat curious as to how the whole configuration process of Yammer DIRSYNC is completed, and you might also be interested in some of the ‘challenges’ I faced getting this to work.

I have followed this up even more recently with a post about the updated DIRSYNC tool called Azure Active Directory Sync Services and you can find that here:įinally, I have posted about the preview of the tool that is replace Azure AD Sync Services called Azure AD Connect and that you can find here: Windows Azure Active Directory Sync tool (DIRSYSNC) – the basics It is one of the most popular posts on this blog and you can find it here: I’ve recently blogged about using DIRSYNC to connect your local Active Directory (AD) to Office 365. ![]()
