There is a Group Policy setting *on the Domain Controller* that must be changed.
It lists the users and groups of users that can set this bit in the userAccountControl
It defaults to Administrators. I am not an Admin9istrator, but am in another
roup that can create accounts for unix hosts, and can set this bit.
Our AD admind spent some time looking for it. With AD2003 There is a GUI
interface to set it.

Start here:

Then look for
"For a Group Policy object, when you are on a domain controller or on a
workstation that has the Windows Server 2003Administration Tools Pack installed."

You must be on the DC to set the policy.
