Title: How-to add group to "Managed by" attribute on Distribution list

Clyde,   Thank you for this detail information regarding “Managed by” attributes. If I could add the groups into the “managed by” field it would be easier for the users who managed the distribution list.  I can get the user/group to have permission to change membership in the security Tab. Thanks.   Hunter     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Burns, Clyde Sent: 2005 February 08 8:11 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] How-to add group to "Managed by" attribute on Distribution list   In Exchange 2000 the "Managed by" field is informational only. It doesn't set any permissions. (Exchange 2003 fixed this btw.) I dont know how to get a group to show up as the 'managed by' name but I do know how to get a user /group to have the permissions to change membership of a distribution list in a 2000 environment   To set a group up to manage the membership list of another group go into the advanced* security of the group object to be managed. Add the 'Managed by' group/user there. Make sure in the permission entry window you set it to;   Object tab Apply onto: This object and all child objects All allows unchecked   Properties tab Apply onto: This object and all child objects Read Members - allow Write Members - allow All other allows unchecked   This will give the 'Managed by' group just the permissions needed to go in and add/remove users to the managed group. This works just as well for security groups. So if you want, you could manage access to file/folders/shares through outlook if you mail enabled the security group.   Clyde Burns   *You can add the group in the security tab then go into advanced but that seems to precheck alot of the allows I didnt want that object to have. Doing it from the advanced window always gave me a clean slate to work with.

Both are set for native node. Original we were in mix mode because of NT domain. Now we are in Native mode but we are still not able to add group to the “Managed by” attribute on distribution list. In the MS Exchange 2000 Server Administrator’s companion, it stated that you can designate as owner nay user, group or contact in the Global Address Book.  Whenever we try to update the “managed by” field for any distribution list, only users and contacts are list. Even if we try adding valid group, the “select users and contact” screen pop up state that it can’t find the group. Since we were never able to add group to the “managed by” attribute of Distribution List I am not sure if the system is behaving as design or we are missing a step when we move AD and exchange to Native mode. If anyone shares some insight into the problem, I would be greatly appreciated.   Hunter NOTICE - This communication is intended ONLY for the use of the person or entity named above and may contain information that is confidential or legally privileged.
