Can’t see cross domain universal group membership across domain using ADUC.

Can’t see cross domain universal group membership across domain.   Today one tech lead has approached me saying that yesterday he was able to see few groups under particular id which was on parent domain. He demonstrates the problem. Open ADUC- then he searched for the particular ID & he was able to see only domain users group & nothing else. Then I check same id from my computer I was able to see all group membership. Only difference between Tech lead & me is I am on parent domain & he was on child domain & was using Windows XP.   Then I came across following article which describes the same problem. http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=833883  When I made registry changes & it’s surprisingly start working exactly the way I expected.     Happy Blogging, Avi

No Remote Desktop client access licenses available for this computer. I got critical ticket from international region saying they are not able access Terminal Servers & suddenly they won’t be able to connect these terminal servers only other servers like F & P were working fine. I thought it might be some RDP client problem that’s why I upgrade the RDP Client on affected computer but that won’t fix the problem. While surfing on Internet I got following solution which is basically a registry heck but it was not an full proof solution for my scenario. It may solve your problem.

On the Registry menu, click Export Registry File. In the File name box, type mslicensingbackup, and then click Save. If you need to restore this registry key in the future, double-click mslicensingbackup.reg. On the Edit
