The UNIX Attributes tab does not appear in the Active Directory Users and Computers MMC snap-in when Server for NIS is installed in the domain (921913)

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods:

• Install Server for NIS on the computer that is running the Active Directory Users and Computers MMC snap-in.
• Reregister the Nisprop.dll library. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. In Windows Task Manager, verify that no instances of Mmc.exe are running.
     
     Note If you are logged on to a Terminal Server, make sure that you enable the display of processes from all users.
  2. Copy the Nisprop.dll file from the NIS subfolder in your Services for UNIX installation source to the %SFUDIR% folder on the computer on which you want the tab to appear.
  3. Unregister Nisprop.dll. To do this, type regsvr32 /u %SFUDIR%\nisprop.dll at a command prompt, and then press ENTER.
  4. Register Nisprop.dll. To do this, type regsvr32 %SFUDIR%\nisprop.dll at a command prompt, and then press ENTER.

Note If you are using Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Identity Management for UNIX, install the UNIX Attributes tab by running the Idmu.exe package from the Admin folder on the second Windows Server 2003 R2 CD.
