The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

how to manage servers without manage users and groups?

Asked by CJRODRIG in Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2000 Operating System

Hi there... long time without asking a question... here we go:

I have a W2K domain (not native mode) with a bunch of member servers and 6 domain controllers. In this company decided to create a new role called "servers administrators" and it cannot be member either domain admins or local administrators groups.

This new role will manage all about servers (only servers, not workstations) and they should not manage in any way groups and/or users (neither local nor global).

(a) Which is the best way (less time and less impact) to give a group/user only those access rights that allow it to manage everything related to server administration (monitoring, upgrade, patch, manage folder access rights, backup/restore, take ownership, force log off, and so on) but group/user administration?

(b) Is there a way to accomplish this using the standard groups (I mean, using a "server operators"-like group in W2K) or should I create a separate group for them?

(c) Which are the access rights that should I grant to deny only user administration?

To Clarify:
- the new role "servers administrators" can do anything on any server (including domain controllers)
- they should NOT shutdown domain controllers
- they should NOT administer DNS/WINS/DHCP
- they should NOT manage GPOs
- the new role "servers administrators" cannot manage workstations
- "servers administrators" cannot manage local/domain users  and  local/domain groups
- There are NO short/mid-term plans to neither migrate to 2003/2008 (unfortunatelly) nor raise the domain functional level to native.
