Hope it's not bad juju to reply to myself 2x in the same day :-] Here's what our Unity admin found on his side-
When "Show in the GAL" is not checked, it makes the "showInAdvancedViewOnly: TRUE" When it's checked it shows "showInAdvancedViewOnly: FALSE" The "list in phone directory" setting doesn't make any difference. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Free, Bob Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2005 2:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] User accounts with showInAdvancedViewOnly=TRUE Well, here's what we found- Totally unrelated to Unity, our Unity admin contacted me about not seeing an account in object picker to add to a group. I checked and showInAdvancedViewOnly=TRUE, I mentioned this discussion to him, so he looked at it from Unity interface- The setting in Unity for that account was "Do not list subscriber in phone directory" and "Show subscriber in e-mail server address book". He changed it to "Do not show in GAL". saved it. Then enabled both so the settings are now "List in phone directory" and "Show subscriber in e-mail server address book" I looked again and showInAdvancedViewOnly: was toggled to FALSE He's going to play around with it from the Unity side and see if he can repro the issue. hth -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Free, Bob Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2005 1:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] User accounts with showInAdvancedViewOnly=TRUE This is a bit surreal, I *just* got asked about this exact situation only a couple of minutes after Charlie's message. We are in a very similar environment although it's E2K instead of 2K3, is Unity a common denominator? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael B.

I've seen exactly the same thing happen (and I'm in the same environment you describe). But it never made it high enough up my priority list to investigate. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Charlie Kaiser Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2005 4:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ActiveDir] User accounts with showInAdvancedViewOnly=TRUE I've recently run into a weird problem and can't find anything that explains it to me. W2K3 AD single-domain forest, 2K3 native mode, E2K3 enterprise, Cisco Unity VM schema extensions. Our junior admin recently handled a couple of user terminations. Disabled the account, set self to full mailbox access, moved account from Employees OU to terminated sub-OU. I had to do something to one of those accounts and didn't see it in ADUC. Knew it was there somewhere, so fired up ADFind. Turns out the showInAdvancedViewOnly attribute had been set to TRUE. Junior admin logs into exchange server to perform the account management, because it's the only machine that has the exchange admin tools on it that he can access. (That's changing today; he WILL load the tools on his machine. <G>) He didn't do anything special, doesn't use ADSIEdit or DSMOD; strictly the ADUC GUI. I'm trying to figure out why this would happen, and I don't have a clue. Any ideas? Easy enough to set the attribute back, but I'm wondering why it would set it in the first place. AFAIK, there isn't any way to set that attribute via the ADUC GUI... This has only happened on two accounts, both dealt with in the past couple of weeks...
