my little contribution:
I tried to use this module with a domain controller 2k3 some years ago and.. i gave up after a week of tries. I have to admit i'm not so comfortable looking into source files nor visual studio project.

I rewrote the code i needed and i also learned a lesson: win is not so friendly and many things can change between versions or service packs or even updates. Is easier to write some ugly but affordable code that parses output of native commands than use or maintain a module that deals with windows interface. Some Win32::* module seems anyway be stable over the years and maintained, but this is not the case of AdminMisc.

More problems come in place because you pass from a 32bit tio a 64bit OS: "Where is my system32 folder?".. the dreadfull 'Filesystem Redirection' feature come in place..

good luck
