Sure...  When you do group mapping, map them to groups that don't have the domain admins in them.  I have a separate OU=Groups that has "Splunk Users, Splunk Admins, Splunk Power Users" as group names, and specific users…

I want to give LDAP access to my splunk servcie but I don't want the LDAP users to have admin capabilitys in Splunk.  Can I keep the domain admins out of Splunk if I have LDAP authentication???

Learning, learning, learning . . . Our Splunk "expert" is gone, and the non-programmer gets to learn the task! How do you spell SPLUNK?

Can someone tell me what the splunk-search.exe process is doing on a client that is configured for SplunkLightForwarder?

I'm noticing that it starts up roughly every 30 seconds, and runs for for about 2-5 seconds using 80-95% of the cpu during that time.

is splunk-search.exe needed when running a SplunkLightForwarder? If it can't be disabled, can is it possible to throttle it back?

thanks,

Check to see if that forwarder has any scheduled searches running and disable them. Some apps have scheduled searches in them.
no saved searches, but I was able to resolve the issue by re-enabling the SplunkLightForwarder.

thanks,
Weird. Splunkd.log might contain some evidence of what was going on.
