RE: Permissions changing on pickup directory

[Chris Levis]

Well, I kinda hacked a solution into place... Just running a cacls
against it every few hours with scheduled tasks... Not the nicest way
to do it...

 Subject: Permissions changing on pickup directory
 
 
 I have a couple of webpages using CDO to send mail.  For them 
 to work, I have to give IWAM_server write access to the 
 pickup directory of my Exch2k-SP3 server.  So I give IWAM 
 those rights and the pages work fine. However, we try out the 
 webpage again a few hours later, and we get an access 
 denied error.  So I look at the permissions on the pickup 
 directory and see that IWAM has been removed.  I assume 
 Exchange has repermissioned pickup to be tighter.  So I tried 
 changing it again (and unchecking inherit permissions from 
 parent..), and again it works for a while before breaking.
 
 Am I supposed to be doing this a different way?
 
 Thanks!

What if you turn on security event logging?  Maybe that will log the change
in permissions and tell you when and what user account did it?
