Hello All,

I have setup a new domain controller on a win2k HP DL380
G3 box in two of my remote locations. However, when I
remote control these machines and go to Active Directory
to configure a user account, I do not get the Security
tab. I need the Security tab to allow certain user
permissions such as to change password. The change
password restriction is disallowing my users to change
their password at logon.

The unusual thing is that my primary domain controller in
my home location and an older domain controller in
another remote location both on IBM Netfinity boxes allow
users to change their passwords because they show the
Security tab and allow me to change the permissions.

What could be so different now then before when I
configured my domain controller and active directory
services. How do I get my Security tab back?

Hello again All,

Mike from the Win2k security newsgroup answered this one
for me:
Hi,

If I understand you correctly, you miss security tab in
Active Directory
Users and Computers?

Can you open AD Users and Computers and click on View
and check that
Advanced Features are enabled. Now you should be able to
see security tab.

I hope this helps,

Mike

I think it's time for me to upgrade to MCSE 2000 or go to
Win2k3, eh?
