I wish to give our helpdesk a limited MMC consoloe for password reset
etc. To get it to work on their PC I need to install the snap-in, which
various places on the internet have told me requires registering the
dll dsadmin.dll. (as per http://tinyurl.com/q5px2 or example)
i have now tried this in three computer and every time th dll fails to
register correctly, giving an error message

LoadLibrary("dsadmin.dll") failed - the specifed module could not be
found

Does anyone know what is causing this and where to go from here? I
don''t want to install the full adminpak.msi

Cool, thanks. now why couldn't i find that article before? :-(

For the record, for anyone searching for the same info

1: Copy adminpak.msi to c:\windows\system32 on the PC

2: In a command line navigate to the c:\windows\system32 directory

3: Run "msiexec /i adminpak.msi ADDLOCAL=FeADTools /qb"

4: Delete adminpak.msi


thanks for your help

Windows 2000 with the same issue

Help!!,

I am having the exact same issue. I did the steps on an XP machine and it worked Great!! Thank you by the way. I also have three win2k machines that this doesn't work on and I used an adminpak.msi from win 2000 server naturally because the 2003 wouldn't load anyway. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
