Dear list, Does anybody know how to lower the tombstone lifetime in samba 4.5 or later? There used to be a wiki entry, but this has been deleted as it is probably not adequate anymore: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Restoring_deleted_AD_objects#Changing_the_defaults_for_msDS-deletedObjectLifetime_and_tombstoneLifetime I used to change the attribute tombstoneLifetime in CN=Directory Service,CN=Windows NT,CN=Services,CN=Configuration, but this doesn't seem to work anymore. Thanks and best regards, Tim

You can use ADSIEDIT and drill down to Configuration,Configuration,Services,Windows NT and right click Directory Service. Scroll through till you see tombstoneLifetime attribute. -- -- James
