Description of the Microsoft Windows Registry
When you use the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in in Microsoft Windows Small Business Server (SBS) 2003 and try to open the
Dial-in tab in the properties of a user object, the
Dial-in tab may not open. Additionally, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following error message:
Dial-in page error.
Could not load the Dial-in profile for this user because: Access is denied.
If the
Dial-in tab does open, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following:
Dial-in page initialization failed.
This issue may occur if the Local Service account does not have the correct registry permissions.
Warning If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
-
Click Start, click Run, type regedt32, and then click OK.

subkey. To do this, follow these steps:- Locate and click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurePipeServers\winreg\AllowedPaths
- Right-click AllowedPaths, and then click Permissions.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
