Can't Unhide User From GAL
Exchange 2000. Have a user that I need to unhide so I can make a profile for it. Have a working profile on one workstation, so I know the mailbox is ok.
In Active Directory (windows server 2000), can't find the "Exchange Advanced" tab mentioned in a previous post on this topic. I know I have seen that tab before, but it is not showing up now, so cannot unhide the user.

Go to server where exchange is installed and go to Microsoft Exchange in programs in start menu and then open Active directory users and comuters there .Find the user here and unhide from exchnage advaced tab.

Sorry, I must be blind, stupid or both. Still cannot find anyplace to "unhide" or the exchange advanced tab.
are you getting any exchange tab in ad user properties?
What are the options coming to you when you right click on user name in ad and click exchnage tasks?
ASKER
Yes, there are these exchange tabs:
Exchange General
Exchange Features
E-mail Addresses
the exchange tasks available from right-clicking are:
Move Mailbox
Delete Mailbox
Enable Instant Messaging

Are you able to see this tab for any other user in ad?
Go to Exchange system manager and then recipient update service and right click on it click rebuild and check after some time whether you got exchange advanced tab.
ASKER
No, the Exchange Advanced tab does not seem to be available for any user. I started the rebuild - it said it could take several hours, so will check again tomorrow AM.
ASKER
Ok, the rebuild seems to be done and no change - still no advanced tab. But I figured it out: in Active Directory Users and Computers there is a VIEW submenu on the menu. This submenu has an ADVANCED FEATURES option. if this option is unchecked, you do not see the Exchanged Advanced tab. if it is checked you do see it.
So finally the issue is resolved.
