i don't agree with you that: <b>delegated permissions in &quot;inexperienced&quot; hands is that the permissions are hidden from you! </b>because any delegated privilege you assign to a user you will find it in security tab of that OU, and from there you can see all the permission that you have given to users and group.

We run Windows 2003 Active Directory on a single domain.I would like certain people to have the ability to unlock user accounts when they get locked out. Do they have to be Domain Admins to do this? I would rather not if I do not have to. I am trying to limit the number of Domain Admins we have but at the same time delegate more responsibility to certain individuals.

Domain Admins

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.

Active Directory

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
