PROBLEM

By default, LDAP Administrator uses local application data folder for storing its configuration files, like metabase and schema cache. Such behavior can cause problems for those using roaming profiles in their network.

SOLUTION

• Open registry editor (Start->Run->regedit.exe)
• Navigate to or create registry key
  
  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Softerra\LDAP Administrator 3\Settings - for version 3.x
  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Softerra\LDAP Administrator 4 - for version 2008.x/2009.x (aka 4.x)
• Create a non-zero DWORD value here called EnableApplicationDataRoaming

You can use HKEY_CURRENT_USER registry hive as well if you want to change application data files location only for specific uses.
In case both registry entries are used, value from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE has a priority over value from HKEY_CURRENT_USER.

APPLIES TO

The method descried above applies only to Softerra LDAP Administrator version 3.4 (build 1700) and higher.
