MORE INFORMATION

  "admin /r" (without the quotation marks) at the command prompt.

  left pane called Schema.

3. Double-click the Schema object and press the F5 key to refresh the screen.

4. Get the properties of the First Name object by double-clicking the object;
  or, on the File menu, click Properties. A dialog box appears.

7. In the Edit value box, enter the value 2, and then click Set.

must be performed for each site where you want the change to take effect.
