This article was previously published under Q270064

SYMPTOMS

If you configure attribute flow to flow attributes, and you change the case sensitivity of an attribute, the attributes do not flow

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because the attribute zcDsAttributeFlowIsCaseExact is not set to True on the Management Agent. You cannot change this setting on the Management Agent.

RESOLUTION

To work around this issue, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Metadirectory Service, and then click MMS Forms Designer.
  2. On the File menu, click Open, and then click Form Directory.
  3. Click the following form set:

    MA=MAName
    Dsaname=DSAObject
    ou=applications
    dc=domainname
    dc=com

  4. Click Open.
  5. Click macfgoptions1a.frm from Files List.
  6. Click Edit.
  7. From the Tools dialog box, click Check box and drag it to the location where you want it on the form.
  8. In caption box, type Flow case.
  9. In X.500 Attribute, type zcDsAttributeFlowIsCaseExact.
  10. In Matching Value, type True.
  11. Click to select the Default radio button check box.
  12. On the Formset menu, click Save.
