Description Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer 2007-07-17 14:51:59 UTC
The name of the subobject "CN=409" under CN=DisplaySpecifiers,CN=Configuration,<Domainname> is wrong. It should be "CN=407". So Active Directory Users and Computers finally shows user attributes. It's located in the file display_specifiers.ldif under setup/.

As such, I think the correct fix is to determine an automatic way to generate these for any codepage.

Yes, you are right. I've used the ADUC MMC on a client with German language, where the language code in the AD must be "407". Hopefully there is a way to fix this nasty issue.
Comment 3 Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer 2007-07-27 10:53:33 UTC
I think, there could be now the right time to add more display specifiers. I see for example, that now also the MMC AD Sites and Services begins to work correct.
For the codepage problems, I would copy the same DS under each important codepage for the moment, until we have found a better solution. But in fact does Microsoft generate them automatically?

Display specifiers

I've enhanced the display specifiers ldif file to support more editing in MMC with classes, that exist in SAMBA4's schema.
Comment 5 Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer 2007-08-23 01:01:21 UTC
Since it's not really a bug, I'll mark it as a feature request.
Comment 6 Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer 2008-01-07 16:55:47 UTC
The problem with the codepages seems to be fixed now. Andrew, but have you checked  my enhancement patch here?
Comment 7 Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer 2008-08-07 12:29:18 UTC
I think we fixed now the problem with the display specifiers. So, should I close this bug? What do you think Andrew?
Comment 8 Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer 2008-08-14 11:31:45 UTC
Okay, I'm going to close this.
Comment 9 Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer 2009-08-01 13:33:01 UTC
I reopen this bug since it deals with the display specifiers which still is an issue for us. I'll close this when we have *all* display specifiers integrated in SAMBA 4.
Comment 10 Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer 2009-09-07 01:35:27 UTC
All display specifiers imported - therefore fixed.
