A domain user's account was deleted by accident, and then recreated. Some of the user's permissions to applications and/or data took about four hours to work properly. Does anyone know why some of these permissions took so long to start working?
I would assume AD replication, or the groups weren't set correctly and someone had to set them manually. This is why if you delete a users account by accident you should restore the account instead of creating a new one.
If your domain is a Windows 2008 R2 domain then you have the AD recycle bin you can undo the delete from.
Thanks very much for your responses, AD replication sounds right. It has just never taken that long. We are still on a 2003 domain controller, so not deleting the account is the only way to go.
