Right! My point exactly! So if your policy is to include the Domain Admin in NTFS permissions, there's no point in renaming your Domain Admin account.

In other words, you're not actually working with the friendly names when viewing or assigning permissions, but this is how it appears to you.

Let's say you run NTFS permissions on your local PCs. Lets say your standards are (for EVERY FILE/FOLDER OBJECT ON THE PC): Full Control for Local Admin, Domain Admin and System. Modify for Everyone (At least where it is not a security risk). [1] What is displayed locally to the User (for Admin accounts) when they look at NTFS permissions on their file/folder objects? [2] What do you as the Admin select in the ACL, when you set new permissions for file/folder objects?
