Devon- To a certain extent is varies based on your business requirements. There are basic things though: Computers Users Groups Contacts. My standard for OUs is something like this CookieCutter Division --Computes ----Workstations ----Laptops ----Servers --Users ----Employees ----Contractors ----Temporary --Groups --Contacts I let people create OUs under the bottom most OU in each subtree and do whatever to the relevant objects. I provision users centrally so I don't delegate exchange. It's way easier to have some sort of central exchange provisioningysstem or site rather than trying to delegate it. I have a sript I wrote that creates the OU structure, groups, and delegates various rights, you're welcome to a copy if you want it. You'll have to modify it for your organization, but, it's a good start. Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED] c - 312.731.3132

We want to separate the divisions (domains) into different OUs. Is there a guide or best practice out there on delegating admin permissions on OUs? Also, we've got Exchange permissions to deal with too.
