> `samba-tool admx load` can be used for any admx files, but you have to
point it at the correct directory. The `--admx-dir=` parameter has to point to
the root where the admx files are, and the adml files should be in
subdirectories under that root (en-US/*.adml, for example). Perhaps you pointed
the command at the wrong directory? Take a look in your SYSVOL under
Policies/PolicyDefinitions and see if maybe you've copied them under some
other subdirectory.
I've messed with it all since I first did it, so I'm not sure if
I'll be able to really be sure what happened, though this is probably the
best/most-likely explanation? I suspect I either pointed it one directory level
too high or too low (most likely, IMO). That's easy to do after extracting
the ADMX CAB's.
?
Perhaps I expect too much, but I'd have thought that the admx-load action
would do a little validation before copying to be sure it was fed the right
structure...for exactly this reason.
Thus; Is the ADMX load doing anything other than simply copying the files up to
sysvol?
i.e. Is there any reason not to simply copy the ADMX files by hand? Especially
if it's not going to do any real validation? :)
?
Thanks all for the good answers so far!
