Windows 7 and AD LDS

Hello

I have installed the AD LDS for windows 7 and I was following this tutorial: AD LDS Getting Started Step-by-Step Guide

But when I try to connect to the instance with the ADSI Editor I get the following error:

Operation failed: Error code: 0x20d6

No superior reference has been configured for the directory service. The directory service is therefore unable to issue referrals to objects outside this forest.

I tested it on a windows server 2008 R2 and it works but on windows 7 it doesn't.

There is only one instance and no forest, so the error is misleading, I tried upper and lower case, to add and remove parameters but nothing.

I can connect to the service with the configuration, rootds and schema but when I try to set a name I get always the same exception.

I have googled it but I didn't find anything useful, somebody has any idea?

Thanks
