I was using a utility called AD Tidy to show me the last logon dates of my users so I could remove unused accounts, however 4 users have a last logon in the future. We have 4 domain controllers and the one common factor is these 4 users all authenticated against the same domain controller, where all the others were on different ones. I logged into the problematic domain controller and the time and date are correct. What could possibly be the cause of this? It isn't affecting the users to my knowledge, but it is an issue I'd like to resolve.

AD last logon date is in the future
- Thread starter Shad0wguy
- Start date
Well there could be a time issue that is not accounted for. Are all of the domain contollers set to the same time zone? This would be the first thing I looked at. The network time could be correct on all of them thus users able to logon but time zone could be off. I am not familar with that tool you are using, it could depend on what AD field it is grabing and how it is processing the lastLogon data type which is an Integer8 data type which typically needs the value to be calculated to get a "Human Readable" datetime.
