RE: Delegation of Control in Windows 2008 R2 DFL/FFL questions

2011-08-09 Thread Miller Bonnie L .
Was out on vacation last week (if painting counts as vacation 8), but if you 
didn't already find them, here's what we have.  I also went with a group like 
Jon, so we could put our repair technicians in there, and for anyone else down 
the road who needs to have the privilege added/removed.

For each high-level container, add detailed permissions for that group:

Object tab
Apply to: Descendant Computer Objects
Read all properties Allow
Write all properties Allow
Delete Allow
Reset Password Allow

Object tab
Apply to: This object and all descendant objects
Create Computer objects Allow
Delete Computer objects Allow

I went with putting a group into the default domain GPO that was able to add 
machines.  I did that originally because I had been told that the office 
manager needed to add machines as they arrived.  Shortly after that I 
management told me never mind the office manager did not want the extra work.  
Left the group in there and only put the two non-admin user id's of us that 
would be adding machines into it.  We had DA status but when moving machines 
around the office we used our regular accounts.  These were usually stored 
machines that were way out of production kept for emergencies.

Can these be applied through the Windows 7 RSAT tools to a Windows 2008 R2

Secondly, does anyone have the specific permissions that need to be granted to 
the Computers Container so that a specific group can join computers to the 
domain ( and pop them out) as needed, so I can remove these users from Domain 
Admins. ( I know create and delete computer objects is needed, but I am sure 
there are a few others I don't know about)  The same set of users would be 
moving the computer accounts to other OU's which they will have read/write 
access too accordingly.

This way you can delegate the creation of computer accounts to group1 and the 
joining of the computers to group2.

It is also however possible you have a group of people who create computers 
accounts and also join them. To able so everyone in that group can create a 
computer accounts and join the computers to the domain independent who created 
the computer accounts replace TEMPLATE 6 with what is mentioned below or 
perform the delegate twice with the additional task created above! If you want 
to join a computer to the domain in a specific OU and the computer account has 
not been pre-created you cannot use the GUI at the computer. For this you must 
use the tool NETDOM so you can specify the OU the computer account must reside 
in! The latter only is only possible when you at least have the right to create 
a computer object in the designated OU. Joining will also be possible because 
you automatically become the owner of the computer account!

2011-08-09 Thread Ziots, Edward
Thanks Bonnie, I will be putting those in on my Computers Container and
representative OU that I am going to be doing moving forward and see how
the testing goes accordingly. 

 

I am sure my workstation group might not like it that much, but this
should have been done along time ago.
