Hi!
I would like to know how to delagate control over the user permission "user cannot change password". I know that delagating write all permissions or full control does this but this is too much. I found that several permissions are hidden in the dssec.dat file but I can't find the one controlling the permission I want. Is it possible to do this in any way.

I know that too but I want to delegate control over this in the AD to an restricted account operator. I know that if I delagete write all permissions or full control it works but I don't want to allow that much. You can for example delegate reset password and lock account but how do you delagate "User cannot change password"
It's not possible to delegate this unless you give modify permissions

I know if you go into AD Users and Computers, select the username you want, secondary-click, properties, and account tab, and set them individually to "User cannot change password", that would work.
If you use group policy, you should be able to set it in there, too.
