Earlier this week I was attempting to create an Entra ID Kerberos server object, and I kept running into these errors: Set-AzureADKerberosServer : Failed to read secrets from the domain Set-AzureADKerberosServer : Failed to connect to domain Normally these errors occur for these reasons: The Microsoft.Online.PasswordSynchronization.Rpc.dll is missing from the server, or the server is missing a .dll from the AzureADHybridAuthenticationManagement module The cloud credentials and the domain credentials are entered incorrectly.

This morning while I was sipping my tea, I pondered life’s most important question: “Why aren’t my users synchronizing from my on-premises Active Directory to my Microsoft Entra ID tenant?” During my initial Password Hash Sync attempt, my synchronization service account was created, but none of the users synchronized, and the installation service timed out with this error: “An internal problem has occurred.

Otherwise, you might be attempting to reach a VM that does not have a public IP assigned, or you could be reaching out to a private IP that is outside of the Azure Virtual Network.

If the Microsoft Entra Connect (Azure AD Connect) wizard fails to install, the following errors may occur: An internal problem has occurred.
