AD Users and Computers in XP

[Ross]

I am running XP Pro and have installed the AD Users and
Computers MMC to manage the domain. On the individula
users there is no tab for dial-in, which is available on
the windows 2000 mmc. Any ideas why or why not?

Thanks

This is a issue with 2003 Admin tools. I have posted some time ago
workaround on this issue. Reposting original post:

I have seen this question asked a lot lately, so I went trough
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=304718 and used reverse steps to get
proper dll's and registrations, so that dial-in tap can appear in users
property on Windows Server 2003 admin pack used on windows XP

Here are the steps:
1. Import following registry info (it is in dialin.zip file)
2. From Windows Server 2003 copy following files to %systemroot%\system32
folder on Windows XP
- rasuser.dll
- mprsnap.dll
- rtrfiltr.dll
3. open command prompt (Windows XP) and go to %systemroot%\system32
4. issue regsvr32 rasuser.dll
5. Now you should see dial-in tab on users property

I have to stress here, that his is unsupported way to do this and that you
are doing this on your own risk. But you probably already know that ;-)
