Can the Custom Views option in the Directory and Resource Administrator MMC be disabled?

fact
Directory and Resource Administrator 6.x

fix
The Directory and Resource Administrator MMC client allows Assistant Admins to create Custom Views. This option is available to all Assistant Admins by default and is a client-side setting that each Assistant Admin can configure. To disable the Custom View option for all Assistant Admins the following steps must be performed on the primary Directory and Resource Administrator server:

  1. Launch Regedt32.
  2. Highlight the SeverConfiguration key under HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Mission Critical Software\OnePoint\Administration\Data\Modules hive.
  3. Select the Add Value option from the Edit menu.
  4. In the Value Name: field type HideMmcCustomNode and click OK.
  5. In the String field type 1 and click OK.

To verify that the Custom View node is no longer available in the MMC reconnect to the Directory and Resource Administrator server.

To enable the Custom View node after it has been disabled change the string for HideMmcCustomNode value to "0".

This information will be replicated to all the Directory and Resource Administrator servers in the Multi-Master Set.
