RE: [ActiveDir] Script to change owner?

[Ulf B. Simon-Weidner]

You might have to VBS that yourself.   Here are some suggestion which should show you the path:   Set objDS = GetObject("LDAP:") Set objAD = objDs.OpenDsObject(strDN,strUser,strPwd,1) Set objSD = objAD.Get("ntSecurityDescriptor")   objSD.Owner = strNewOwner   objAD.Put "ntSecurityDescriptor", Array(objSD) objAD.SetInfo     There might be some settings or commands missing (for example you can set how/what should be updated by using objAD.SetOption ), but it should work as a starting point for you.
