Only Sith deal in
absolutesÂ… :P
When you have a CIO
that likes to be in the Domain Admins group, you sometimes have to pick your
battles.

permission continues to be "auto-removed"
There is no debate on
admins having multiple creds, one for admin work and one for normal work. Just
do it. :)
To put it nicely, if
a company doesn't do this, they are just being silly[1].
I am trying to figure
out if there is ever a valid reason I think that an admin should have a single
ID in a company. I can't come up with one.
[1] Instead of silly
think of mean words used to describe really silly
people.

One more thing to add
to this from my experience.
I think we had
situations arise where someone was trying to pragmatically modify or read
attributes on accounts in the protected groups and was not able to due to
their membership within a protected group. This of course started the
hot debate on admins having multiple credentials, one for administrative
duties, the other for collaborative and identity purposes.

I have a 2-part
discussion of this behavior starting here: http://www.akomolafe.com/JustSaying/tabid/193/EntryID/19/Default.aspx
It's a bit
headache-inducing, but at least you will get the benefit of knowing that it is
"by design"

permission continues to be "auto-removed"
We have some users that have
mobile devices that connect to Exchange. The 3rd party
application uses a dedicated account to send mail from the devices.
This account needs to have "Send As..." permissions on each of the user
accounts' security settings. We have set it in all users (about two
dozen) but one user in particular has a problem. We set the
permission and give it "Send As..." rights (just like all the others - no
different), but usually within an hour, the newly added permission is gone -
not just the "Send As" setting, but the whole account name is gone from this
user's security settings as if we never added it in the first place. We
have five DC's and I have tried adding it from each DC with the same
results. I am baffled by this. Does anyone have any
suggestions?
