RE: [ActiveDir] delegation not working on Win2k AD
Title: Re: [ActiveDir] delegation not working on Win2k AD I wonder if something is just ‘broken’ (and missed) as you’ve been making changes. It sounds like everything is in place correctly. You might try this, as it will serve you well in many ways: Background It is a best practice not to be adding computers ‘willy nilly’ to the Computers container, since it is unmanaged. You’ll probably want to be adding computers to an actual OU, to which you’ve linked appropriate GPOs. It is also a best practice to create the computer account in advance of joining the computer to the domain; or to use NETDOM or WMI to join computers to the domain, so that one way or another they end up in the correct (end state) OU, rather than in a generic container. If you have W2K3 domain functaional level, you can also redirect the ‘default’ computers container into a custom OU. See http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324949 . Suggestion Start over with your task, since you’ve tried everything and have done things well. Start with a “fresh” OU, delegate your techs group the CC (Create Child) and GA (Full Control) of computer objects in the OU. Test by logging on as a tech and using ADUC to create a computer object; then join a workstation (same name) to the domain. See what breaks, if anything. If anything breaks, create a NEW tech user account, put it in the same group that has been delegated permissions, and try again. If the new tech can add computers (using ADUC) to the new OU and join computers to the new accounts, try one last ‘round’ of the new tech doing the same thing back in your old container. NEXT STEPS I’d be happy *try* to help you directly if you’d like. LMK where exactly things are breaking. I’d just need to look at the ACL on the Computers container and your “new” OU and an RSoP of a Technician 1) Use the following command to dump the permissions on the container: dsacls "CN=Computers,DC=windomain,DC=local" >desktop\dsaclsdump.txt Replacing the domain name and/or Container/OU as appropriate 2) Please run two RSoP reports using the Group Policy Management Console a. A Technician on a technician’s computer b. A Technician on a domain controller Save the reports (they come out as HTML) Send me the three files (I probably don’t need all three, but they’ll be helpful). I don’t have *tons* of time today, but I’ll be happy to take a quick look. My email is dan-dot-holme-at-intelliem-dot-com.
