Is there any way to change a default value for new users created in AD? We would like to have a value (specifically, the Dial-in Tab - Remote Access Permission) set to Allow by default if possible.
We know we can do this via scripting, post-creation, in a Native Win2k Domain or later. Unfortunately, we are still in Win2k Mixed Mode right now (although we may be evaluating if we can elevate our Domain status).
Any pointers on a way to automate this would be appreciated.

Thanks - that looks exactly like what I wanted -- but it appears (at least in our Domain settings) that a Copied account resets the attribute we're interested in back to Deny! :(
Any other ideas, or are we stuck until we get our Domain Level more current?
If someone can verify this works for the value we want on a Win2k Native, Win2k3, or Win2k8 Domain I'd appreciate it.
See EE-thread http:Q_24588399.html about configuring what attributes shall be copied when coping users.

No nead to have lower functional level than necessary.
Functional level restricts what OS-version can be used as DC in the domain. Raise the domain/forest functional level to the lowest OS-version used as DC to get the newer features in the functional level.

Use account template.
Look at http://windowsserver.train
It works similar way in older AD too.
