RE: [ActiveDir] Schema extension

This relates to classes and not attributes.   I suspect russ needs to flush the schema cache and/or wait for the change to replicate, but also to use a suitable editor, such as adsiedit.     neil From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thommes, Michael M. Sent: 09 May 2006 16:03 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Schema extension "DefaultHidingValue"?   defaultHidingValue A Boolean value that specifies the default setting of the showInAdvancedViewOnly property of new instances of this class. Many directory objects are not interesting to end users. To keep these objects from cluttering the UI, every object has a Boolean attribute called showInAdvancedViewOnly. If defaultHidingValue is set to TRUE, new object instances are hidden in the Administrative snap-ins and the Windows shell. A menu item for the object class will not appear in the New context menu of the Administrative snap-ins—even if the appropriate creation wizard properties are set on the object class's displaySpecifier object. If defaultHidingValue is set to FALSE, new instances of the object are displayed in the Administrative snap-ins and the Windows shell. Set this property to FALSE to see instances of the class in the administrative snap-ins and the shell and enable a creation wizard and its menu item in the New menu of the administrative snap-ins. If the defaultHidingValue value is not set, the default is TRUE.     From: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url="">   Mike thommes           -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rimmerman, Russ Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 9:38 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Schema extension     We received our OID from Microsoft this week, so I went ahead and added an attribute so I could flag service accounts so we won't accidently 'clean them up' during our account cleanup processes.     I then went to the "User" class and added my new attribute to it.     When I view a user's AD schema properties, however, I'm not seeing the new property assigned to it. Is there any other step that I'm missing?   Thanks     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This e-mail is confidential, may contain proprietary information of Cameron and its operating Divisions and may be confidential or privileged.   This e-mail should be read, copied, disseminated and/or used only by the addressee.
