Additional Account Information not displayed on find

[David Cosaboom]

I have copied the acctinfo dll to my %systemroot%/system32 directory and
registered it using the following command: regsvr32 acctinfo.dll
The dll registers successfully but the additional account info tab only
displays when you double click a user object by drilling down through the
AD. If I execute a find on a particular user name and double click on an
user as a result of the find, the additional account info tab does not
display. Can anyone provide me any reasoning as to why this happens. Is
there a way to remedy this problem without the assistance of third party
software? Is there any more hidden AD information of which I can display
via other dlls?

Thanks,
Dave

Hello David,

It is because the acctinfo.dll is an extension of the dsa.mmc.

The find function does not call the dsa.mmc, it does a straight ldap call.

Thank You.

Diana.
