When I try to enable a user account I get an error: “The server is unwilling to process the request.”

This error most commonly occurs when you are attempting to do something that the server’s security policy forbids.

For example, check that you have assigned the user a password in a previous message that complies with any password complexity and history policies you may have in your domain.

Is the ability to create Solicit-Response ports that query Active Directory on demand part of the Receive Adapter or the Send Adapter?

Both. The query is sent out by the send adapter. The actual querying is done by components of the receive adapter. Therefore, to be licensed to create Solicit-Response send ports, you need to be licensed for both the ActiveADAPTER send and receive adapters.
