I am trying to to enable the /apps/gnome-system-tools/users/show_all flag that is supposed to be in gconf-editor.
According to the Ubuntu community documentation, and many google searches, the key I want should be in the above location but the entire /apps/gnome-system-tools tree is missing.

My problem is not getting the key to work, I will deal with that later, I do not have /apps/gnome-system-tools in the tree view.
Some users claim that it shows if you run gconf-editor as root, but mine is exactly the same running as root.
Based upon what I have read here: http://projects.gnome.org/gconf//
I think that the hive/config-source was never added when the gnome-system-tools package was built into the release. Either that or they have moved the branch and I have yet to find the documentation noting the move.
It looks like I could start adding folders in {$HOME}/.gconf/apps/ and they would then show in the tree, but I would prefer to have everything from the gnome-system-tools branch loaded in properly.
Also from what I can tell there is no good way to start adding folders to the tree view directly via the gconf-editor tool, right click does nothing and there are no preferences under Edit.
How do I get the /apps/gnome-system-tools branch to appear in gconf? Or, if necessary, where do I find its default configuration source so that I may add it?
I am using Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal i386 version, with Gnome version 2.32.1, and the 2.32.0-0ubuntu7 gnome-system-tools package is installed.
