Windows Server 2022 - "Cannot find an appropriate constructor for type System.Security.Principal.NTAccount" about powerstig HOT 3 OPEN

Hello @Wheels387,

Thanks for creating the issue. I confirmed that rule 'v-254254.c' produces the error. The security group "Server Operators" should not be in this 'MS' STIG because it only exists on DomainControllers.

Temp workaround - skip that rule ( you could also use the exception format with PowerSTIG to update that rule to still apply without the "Server Operator" group

configuration Example
{
    param
    (
        [parameter()]
        [string]
        $NodeName = 'localhost'
    )

    Import-DscResource -ModuleName PowerStig

    Node $NodeName
    {
        WindowsServer BaseLine
        {
            OsVersion   = '2022'
            OsRole      = 'MS'
            DomainName  = 'sample.test'
            ForestName  = 'sample.test'
            SkipRules = @('V-254254.c')
        }
    }
}

Example

Fix needed
Update converted STIG for MemberServer 2022, to not include 'Server Operators'

Adding SkipRule = @('V-254254.c') to the configuration allowed everything to run as expected. Thank you for the quick response!
