- Ahh! Finally, I can stop using the 2003 one.
- I still cannot connect to my domain through the AD Admin Center after I install the RSAT tools. It says no cannot find an available server for domain xxx. although in the left hand window I see my NBT domain name with a red down arrow in it ??
- Thanks for the information with this new RSAT, just today I applied onto my computer and finally I have access to Active Directory User and Groups, but please take a note that the tab of Dial-in is not available, I dont know why because on Windows Vista with adminpack you can access to the tab of Dial-in
So at this momento RSAT for Windows 7RC I can access to AD (Windows Server 2003) - Hi: Well I look the information that you give me, but I found that is related to Gateway Services on Windows 2003, and maybe I explain wrong. This is the issue: When you use the tool to administer Active Directory and look for a user account and click Properties , the tab of Dial-in is missing, the others tabs are present like Group Membership, Account, Environment and so on, but Dial-in I dont know what happend with this. When I have Windows Vista I can use the Active Directory and access this tab of Dial-in. Any suggestions will be welcome, meanwhile when I need to access Dial-in I used Remote Desktop to connect to the server and check-out the permission.
I wonder if I've missed a configuration option or if perhaps there is a tweak(s) I can perform in Windows 7 to get the Active Directory Users and Computers to have the same functionality as the one we run under Windows XP?
I know there have been many comments about missing tabs in the RSAT and those missing tabs seem to continue to be missing in Windows 7. Under Vista, there was some 'hack' you could perform to get some files from a 2008 server and register some files, etc. to get this functionality back, but that doesn't appear to work under Windows 7.
Currently the below tabs are missing.
For computers:
- Dial-inFor users:
- Dial-in
- Terminal Services Profile
We use the Dial-in and Terminal Services Profile tabs on a daily basis. Is there a way to get these tabs to show up in the ADUC of Windows 7 RSAT? If not, then I'm thinking it pretty much means we have to continue using a Windows XP workstation to run ADUC.
Thank you.

Did you ever get this figured out? I need to get the Dial-In tab to appear also.- Was this removed? If so, why?
- Okay, so this is not really an issue with RSAT on Windows 7, but rather RSAT on either Vista or Windows 7, correct? I have RSAT on my Vista machines and there is no Dial-in tab or Terminal Services tab, just as described above.
- I used an option that worked for me in WinXP but seems to work as well in Windows 7 (RC)
First create a batch file with the following content.
cd /d %SystemRoot%\System32 copy \\yourDC\Admin$\System32\mprsnap.dll *.* copy \\yourDC\Admin$\System32\rasuser.dll *.* copy \\yourDC\Admin$\System32\rtrfiltr.dll *.* regsvr32 rasuser.dll regedit /s dialin.reg
Then create a registry file with below content called dialin.reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RasDialin.UserAdminExt] @="" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RasDialin.UserAdminExt\CLSID] @="{B52C1E50-1DD2-11D1-BC43-00C04FC31FD3}" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RasDialin.UserAdminExt.1] @="" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\RasDialin.UserAdminExt.1\CLSID] @="{B52C1E50-1DD2-11D1-BC43-00C04FC31FD3}" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MMC\NodeTypes\{19195a5b-6da0-11d0-afd3-00c04fd930c9}\Extensions\NameSpace] "{B52C1E50-1DD2-11D1-BC43-00C04FC31FD3}"="RAS Dialin - User Node Extension"Then run the batchfile with Admin Rights!!
Let me know if this works

Here is the new link.
Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7
Thanks for the heads up on this, I have updated the previous information in this thread.

Ronnie Vernon MVP- Hi Ronnie,
I tried your download link and install it, but i am getting an error "The update is not applicable to your computer". Any idea?
Thanks! - I am getting the same error.
Hi Ronnie,

One reason you can get that message is that you already have it installed.
Try opening Control Panel\Programs and features, and clicking on "Turn Windows feeatures on and off". See if the features you want are available.- I checked the programs and features and it is not listed there. Thanks
- I'm having the same issue. I've even done a full fresh re-install to try and get aroound this issue.I currently have the following hotfixes installed:KB973540KB973346KB972636KB972260KB970858KB970421I'm running X64.
Hi,
if you have installed Windows 7 / 64 bit you must install the downloadfile "amd64fre_GRMRSATX_MSU.msu".
Regards, Anja- I am getting that error on 1 machine that has 32 bit and 1 machine that has 64 bit. I am using the correct file on each machine
- I've been fighting this RSAT "update is not applicable" issue as well. Most info I've found says to uninstall and reinstall (which you can't do if you never had it installed) or it is recommended that your remove specific update, which is not installed.
RSAT and variants of the name do not appear in the Add/Remove Program list nor in the Windows components list. The following updates are the only ones listed as installed:
KB973540
KB972260
KB970858
KB970789
KB970421
KB973346
KB972636
This is on the 32bit version. win7, build 6.1.7100
Downloaded and redownloaded the file, tried both the x86 and the x64 versions of the install just to make sure.- Edited byapophistoledo Thursday, August 20, 2009 1:34 PMadded extra note
- The information that came to me is:
To everyone running build 7100 - that is the RC version of Windows 7. These tools will only install on the RTM version of Windows 7.
- The RSA Tools also install on Server 2008 R2.
- The information that came to me is:
To everyone running build 7100 - that is the RC version of Windows 7. These tools will only install on the RTM version of Windows 7.
Can anybody confirm this? Based on the first post by Ronnie it is RC and not RTM.

Yes. The link at the top is the RSAT for the RTM Build. I have both installed. The link above installs fine on RTM but woll not install on RC. - Why is the RSAT for Windows 7 RTM version so huge when Vista version was less than 25 MB?
- This was a great opportunity thank you for allowing us to try it out. http://www.use.com
