Maintain DirectControl 2.x compatibility

Maintain compatibility with zones created using Centrify DirectControl Administrator Console, version 2.0 or 3.0.

If you have zones and users that were created with Centrify DirectControl Agent version 2.x, you should enable this policy.

If all of your Active Directory users are enabled for UNIX access using Centrify DirectControl Administrator Console, version 3.0 or later, you should leave this policy disabled. If you do not have any users from a Centrify DirectControl Agent version 2.x.x environment, disabling this policy results in a performance improvement on Windows 2000 domain controllers.

This group policy modifies the adclient.version2.compatible setting in the Centrify DirectControl configuration file.
