read/write permission on the useraccountcontrol attribute of the user object. HOWEVER... the disabled/enabled status of a user object is represented by a bit/flag in the useraccountcontrol attribute and that same attribute consists of more bits/flags. So if you delegate read/write permission on the useraccountcontrol, you delegate control on all of the bits/flags represented in that useraccountcontrol attribute.

No, useraccountcontrol mainly holds the fields you see in the checkboxes of the account tab, such as logon with smardcard, must not change password a.s.o. You can not delegate deletion of mailboxes in AD only, you also need to give rights in the exchange store as well. Gruesse - Sincerely, Ulf B.

RE: [ActiveDir] Delegate disable/enable user accounts
Hmmm, is there the possibility that permissions are granted before even clicking Finish in the delegation wizard? The reason I ask is because I created a test user, started clicking on perms in the delegation wizard just to see what happened (without clicking on the Finish buttion), then clicked the back button, cancelled, and started the wizard again. When I started the wizard again, I instead put a group which I then made that same user a member of, then delegated them just the RW on useraccountcontrol. After I found out that I was able to delete a mailbox in that OU, I thought I had better check the effective permissions. The user had all kinds of permissions. I then added another new user to the group that had been delegated rights and that user only had the specific rights that it should have. Does this sound bogus? _ From: Douglas M.

RE: [ActiveDir] Delegate disable/enable user accounts
I agree that you can't delete mailboxes with WP to userAccountControl. However you don't need store access to delete mailboxes, or more accurately to disconnect them. You do need store access (admin rights on the Exchange server) to purge a mailbox. To delegate deletion of mailboxes you simply delegate WP to the list of all Exchange attributes that can be applied to a user object. While the GUI/CDOEXM may give you crap about it a simple LDAP write will work (which is what ExchMbx uses for the -clear option). You also don't need store or Exchange Admin (any level rights) to create a mailbox, having access to about 2 attributes in AD is all that is required. But again, GUI/CDOEXM will complain. The next version of ExchMbx should have that functionality implemented to work with only those two attributes being delegated. From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ulf B.
