Saleem Saleem Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2001-04-11 Posts: 280 Loc: UAE	Hi guys I have bit complicated issue, Our user accounts are created by a privileged user, hence the owner ship of all accounts are in his name, I want to remove his ownership and replace with domain admin ownership, doing one by one 2 5000 accounts is pain... please suggest any short cut. _________________________ “I’ll not change you unless you don’t have intention to change yourself” --H:Quran

Saleem Saleem Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2001-04-11 Posts: 280 Loc: UAE	I got som hints I can read the owner value now $objuser=getobject("LDAP://CN=Jan Smith,OU=Accounts,DC=fabrican,DC=com") ? $objuser.samaccountname+ ";" + $objuser.ntSecurityDescriptor.owner and this is the VB script for changing folder ownership: strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set colFolders = objWMIService.ExecQuery _ ("Select * From Win32_Directory Where Name = 'C:\\Scripts'") For Each objFolder in colFolders objFolder.TakeOwnershipEx Next Can I user it for user account also ?? _________________________ “I’ll not change you unless you don’t have intention to change yourself” --H:Quran

Witto Witto MM club member Registered: 2004-09-29 Posts: 1828 Loc: Belgium	Most probably, the vbscript can be converted. Quick try (I did not test it). Code: $strComputer = "." $objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" + $strComputer + "\root\cimv2") $colFolders = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * From Win32_Directory Where Name = 'C:\\Scripts'") For Each $objFolder In $colFolders $objFolder.TakeOwnershipEx Next But maybe SubInAcl can also help? I read in an other forum that it is much faster than a script SubInACL (SubInACL.exe) ScriptingAnswers.com Forums Archive - take ownership

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	the wmi script above most likely doesn't work. wmi is for controlling machine and what you need is something that pokes AD. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Arend_ Arend_ MM club member Registered: 2005-01-17 Posts: 1895 Loc: Hilversum, The Netherlands	This can be used to obtain the owner information. Setting the owner information is a bit more difficult to say the least $\:\)$ Code: Dim $ou, $sd $ou = GetObject("LDAP://OU=SomeOuName,DC=YourOrg,DC=Com") $sd = $ou.Get("ntSecurityDescriptor") ? $sd.Owner

Saleem Saleem Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2001-04-11 Posts: 280 Loc: UAE	Hi apronk Thanx for your help, I reached that stage allready... I tried this one also $objuser.ntSecurityDescriptor.owner = "DOMAIN\Administrators" $objuser.setinfo But no use... _________________________ “I’ll not change you unless you don’t have intention to change yourself” --H:Quran

Then here you go $\:\)$

Code:

Dim $ou, $sd
$ou = GetObject("LDAP://CN=TestUser,OU=TestOU,DC=YourDomainName,DC=local")
$sd = $ou.Get("ntSecurityDescriptor")
? $sd.Owner

$sd.Owner = "YourDomainName\YourNewuser"
$ou.Put("ntSecurityDescriptor", $sd)
$ou.SetInfo
? @Error
