RE: [ActiveDir] ADAM silent install
Since the current user is not an ADAM admin, he is not able to import LDIF files (since ldifde is launched in current users context). To get around the problem, you must specify SourceUsername and SourcePassword parameters in the unattend file. Another option is to import the LDIFs manually or from script, after ADAM install completes.

Re: [ActiveDir] ADAM silent install
Hi I think the problem is with But the user installing the ADAM instance is already member of administrators. The ADAM answer file reader does not seem to check that; if it sees the Administrator parameter in the answer file it assumes that the user running the install is not an ADAM administrator and as this is a unique instance installing the LDIFs will not be possible due to lack of permissions to modify the local schema. It might be possible to circumvent this using an explicit SourceUsername and SourcePassword in the answer file, but I think your workaround is more secure.
