The latest version of dsacls which is available in the ADAM SP1 and ADAM R2 distributions has a /takeOwnership switch you might find useful.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I looked at dsacls originally.  The WO permission allows someone the ability take ownership, but doesn’t change the owner.

You can only take ownership of an object, not push it onto another security principal. Look at dsacls and the "wo" flag, running in the security context of the 3rd party.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Script to change owner?

Is there anyway in script (preferred) or through the GUI to change the owner of an object?  I realize I can seize ownership in ADUC, but I’d like to be able to assign ownership to a 3rd party.  If need be, I can login as that 3rd party to seize ownership, but I’d like to be able to do it on a whole tree of objects, hence the desire to do it in script.

 

Thanks

Scotte
