Thanks, Rich! I'm optimistic this worked. This user did have data in
the showInAddressBook property. I unhid it and rehid it and then
checked the DC specified in the verbose output, and that property is
cleared now.

This did work. Odd that I had to do the unhide/re-hide from the
shell. This hadn't worked through the console. Thanks.
