Can someone explain how Services/Service Principal Names work in AD?
The mapping of Windows Services to SPNs is a bit lopsided. There's only a handful of SPNs on any given computer object, but that's okay because there's a special SPN called host/computername that is a catch-all. There's a mapping of 50 or so service types mapped to host so when you ask for say fax/computername, AD will treat that as a search 'find me fax/computername OR find me host/computername'. There's an official list on docs somewhere (can't find it), but here's a mapping I created from that official list. All of this lopsidedness works because the local services are running as local system or network service, and therefore use the computer account.

PingCastle and Active Directory hardening
Hi! I just ran PingCastle and I got two major issues:
-
Server 2016 - Enterprise Key Admins GPO linking delegation at the domain level & the domain controller OU level
You can also run these types of assessments yourself using tools such as - https://www.purple-knight.com/ - and - https://www.pingcastle.com - both will provide very detailed reports and steps for remediation.
- Specific user account breaks any computers domain connection is logs into... Stumped!

Create a security group and delegate permissions to that. I suggest you get a copy of Ping Castle and do an AD scan and figure out what else is misconfigured. https://www.pingcastle.com/
