I agree completely that whoever made the decision to release Vista without the ability to run the Adminpak in a completely functional way should be tarred and feathered then hung by their toes in the woods while Shook hunts turkeys. (Releasing Vista Home would have been OK, but there is no way that Vista was Business or Enterprise ready without this basic functionality IMHO.) But at least this gets us closer to where we used to be. Tim
PS - I know for a fact that Microsoft knew about this issue prior to release as it is the only "bug" that I reported during beta testing that was not fixed before Vista's release...and I'm sure I wasn't the only one to find and report it.

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 11, 2008 11:27 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: RSAT for Vista SP1--the new adminpak Okay, anybody else on a 2003 domain notice there are still some tabs missing from a user account's properties? Specifically, I don't see: Environment Sessions Remote Control Terminal Services Profile Dial In And there is a new one called "Password Replication", which is probably a new WS08 feature. Any way to get these to show up, or is this something that has changed (where it is) with WS08 administration, so they just didn't put it in? <sigh>... looks like I might be keeping that XP machine a while longer... 8) -Bonnie ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
