symptom
The Pre-Windows 2000 Compatible Access group does not have the Everyone group as a member in the MMC.

fix

Currently, the "Everyone" group is not handled by Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA). The Everyone group is a special circumstance group.  Active Directory Users and Computers does not allow you to add the Everyone group to a local group.   The only way to add the Everyone group to a local group is to use the command line below. 

net localgroup "local group" everyone /add

An Enhancement Request has been opened with Development to include this functionality in a future version of Directory and Resource Administrator.

note

Windows 2000 has a special group called 'Pre Windows 2000 Comp' that contains the Everyone group by default.  Currently, the DRA does not display the Everyone group.
