Why "Delegation"? Simply edit the GP object where the "Restricted
Groups" setting is in place...
> Also we have two DNS but one from where I remove account is the primary.
How is DNS related to group policy?

If I can remove built-in account from built-in Administrators Group?

Backgroud:
       Someone created a win2003 AD environment, and I upgraded it to win2008r2 AD recently.There is a bulit-in administrator account named domainsvrusr. Unfortunately, the account revealed to some users. Due to security
reason, I want to recover the permission and just let the domainsvrusr account have a domain user permission. And I also need to keep the account have a local-admin permission.
Plan:
        I added domainsvrusr to local administrators group on every servers(For 2008, use the GPO; For 2003, manually added). I want to achieve this goal by removing it from the Built-Admin group. However, I find
it is impossible due to this account is a built-in account.
Question:
        1、If there is any possiblity to achieve this goal by just removed the account out of the group? ( I find some info that says it will not be possible... really?)
        2、The client-server must use the domainsvrusr account. I also consider to rename the default domainsvrusr acoout, and then create a new one. But I think the client-server will also point to the renamed account.
I think it will not be useful... Are there any other alternatives can achieve this goal?
          Thanks all !

I agree with Mahdi. You can't delete a built-in account. Just rename it and change the password.
If you need to use that same account name, after you rename the built-in account and change the password, create a regular domain user account for local admins, and follow what Mahdi suggested to use Restricted Groups.

How to remove user from custom DLU Group

Hi,
I have created a DLU policy that creates a local user, and places this user
in a custom local group (Group is already present on the system). Now I want
to remove this user from this custom group and place it in another custom
group. I have created a second DLU policy to place the user in the new
custom group. The new custom group is added fine, but the old custom group
assignment also remains. How should I set up the policy so that the user is
removed from the old custom group, or is this not possible?

Hen

Remove users from Sharepoint site security group

I have to close a share point 2007 site for all users for an update. I don't have access to CA. the easiest approach is to remove the users from security group and add them back when the site modification is done. All users all under "NT/Aunthenticated
users" and they are in Members group. I'm just wondering will it cause any issues when adding them back or it can be done in 1 click. Do i need any tweaks from CA side to add them back?
Any response is appreciated.
Thanks!

Once you add the users back to the site, it should work as expected.
>>Do i need any tweaks from CA side to add them back?
No i believe, because you are changing the permissions at site level.

How to remove values from a drop down menu with personalizations

I have been unable to find any examples of removing values from a dropdown menu using forms personalizations. We have a specific responsibility that we would like to limit the actions that they can carry out on the person form. I have tried setting default values, setting the object to update_allowed = false, and have been unable to come up with a solution. The examples I have found do not show this type of personalization so I am unsure if it can be done. If anyone has done a personalization like this, please post the steps to reproduce or a link to an example. Thanks.

DineshS wrote:
Which dropdown menu you want to customized ?The specific menu we would like to customize is the 'Action' menu on the Person form that usually contains 'Create Employment' and so on. We have a specific recruiter responsibility that we would like to limit to 'Create Applicant'. I have been unable to come up with a combination of steps in personalizations that sets that value in the dropdown and allows it then be unchangeable. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. I would prefer not to create a custom form but without personalizations, I might have to.

How to remove Button from Flex Mobile app actionbar with AS3?

How exactly would i remove a Button from the actionBar "actionContent" in a flex mobile app?
I tried these:
    this.stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
    this.removeChild(menu_btn);
    stage.removeChild(menu_btn);
    this.stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
    this.removeElement(menu_btn);
    stage.removeElement(menu_btn);
I'm not having any luck with those. Im guessing where it is located in the actioncontent isn't considered the stage. Any ideas?
    <s:actionContent>
                        <s:CalloutButton id="menu_btn" icon="@Embed('assets/images/menu/menu_btn.png')" visible="false">
                                  <s:VGroup>
                                  <s:Button id="btn_one" label="Button" />
                                  </s:VGroup>
                        </s:CalloutButton>
              </s:actionContent>
The actionContent is setup like that, I know like with most mxml stuff I could give it an ID to reference it but im not sure how how to give the action content an id number `<s:actionContent id="testID">` does not work. So how can i access this to remove it? making it invisible isn't cutting it i need to actually remove it.

Does this do what you are looking for?

URGENT!!!! How to list users from a content of groups in Quest PowerShell! HELP!!!

Hi everybody
I have this script:

$date = (Get-Date).ToString()
$username = $_
$displayName = (Get-QADUser $username -Properties DisplayName).DisplayName

What I need now is exactly the opposite, I need to put Groups in a container and in the same format list all users within plus the cmdlet "AccountIsDisabled". I need this ASAP, could you help me?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Based on what I can gather, you're looking to read in an input file of group names, check each group's membership, and then export that information to a CSV file.
I don't have the Quest tools, but here's how I'd do this with the AD module:
Get-Content .\groupList.txt | ForEach {
$groupName = $_
Get-ADGroupMember $_ | ForEach {
$props = @{
'Group Name'=$groupName
UserName=$_.SamAccountName
Name=$_.Name
DisplayName=(Get-ADUser $_.SamAccountName -Properties DisplayName).DisplayName
New-Object PsObject -Property $props
} | Export-Csv .\groupMembers.csv -NoTypeInformation

How to remove a package built from AUR

Hi!
I hope nobody has ever asked this question, but i didn't find an answer.
I built a package from the AUR repository but i don't use it anymore, that's why i'd like to remove it but i don't know how to remove it from my computer since it doesn't appear in pacman's list
can somebody explain me how to do this?
thanks!
Last edited by Beno@ (2008-08-14 12:57:18)

ok, refer to the man pages for pacman
-S (Sync) is for anything over the internet.
-Q (Query) any operation that is performed locally.
So yaourt -Ss means it will search over the internet in the AUR. If you wanna search locally for a package you use -Q for local query.
makepkg is not a pakcage manager, instead it is a package builder for pacman, pacman is the package manager. As Army already said, once you use makepkg to build the package, you need to install the package with pacman -U
BTW, -U (upgrade) a package.
Need more info, read the man pages.
man pacman
once yaourt is installed
man yaourt

Removed user from group, user no longer has access to documents even though user is owner of documents

I'm running a server 2012 std domain and I'm in the process of rebuilding our fileserver after we had some pretty serious permission issues. Bad permissions (Everyone had full access to user documents share) were migrated when we move to the new server and
then by some strange Monday morning freak out all users lost access to their documents. I restored from backups, redirected everyone's folders back to local computer and started to reconfigure the share permissions. I moved our administration group back to
the server after securing proper permissions for folder redirection (permissions copied from https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj649078.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396 table 1, only difference is instead of creating a new security group
for redirection users, I used the everyone group) to test and everything went perfectly. The GPO created the users folders under the root and redirection was good to go. Along with that, other users cannot access other users documents anymore which was the
intended outcome.
Last night I was looking at security groups and see that our administration group (back office group: accounting, HR, etc..) was a member of the domain admins. I removed them from the domain admins group and added them to the administrators group (they do
need regular admin access) then went on like normal. This morning, all users in that group can no longer access their documents on the server. I immediately think that permissions were broken again and started to get angry, but then realize that all the files
are still accessible on the server (no lost permissions like before) and the user is still shown as the owner with full permissions, but the files are inaccessible to those users. I re-added them to the domain admins group, logged out, logged back in and documents
are back and accessible by the user. Remove them from the domain admins group, log out, log back in and the documents are inaccessible again. Re-add to the domain admins group and back to normal.
Which leads me to now. If the users are part of the domain admins group, they have access to their files. If they are removed from the domain admins group, they lose access. When they lose access, they are still the owners of the files/folders with full
permissions, yet they can't access their documents. Also, just to add, the domain admins group has no specified permissions on the files or folders. See screenshots below..
Here is the root share.
And the user's desktop folder. The folder is owned by the user with full permissions. This is the folder the redirection GPO created.
Any ideas why removing the group from domain admins would drop access to their files? They are still the owners of the files and should have full access but they don't. Is there something I'm not seeing here?

Effective Access shows the user has full control of the Desktop folder
This is a problem with the Effective Access tab when using CREATOR OWNER. As you have noticed, the user doesn't really have the access that the tab says it does. This is because of how CREATOR OWNER works.
CREATOR OWNER is only evaluated when a file/folder is created.
IF a user can create a file/folder, then the permissions assigned to CREATOR OWNER are copied to a new permissions entry for that user.
To see this:
Logon as an administrator and create a file in the Desktop folder in your screenshot.
Examine the permissions of the new file.
You'll see that there is a new entry for the account you logged on with.
CREATOR OWNER is gone. CREATOR OWNER would still be there if you created a folder (because of "subfolders and files").
In the Desktop folder (in your screenshot), only SYSTEM and Administrator can create/access files.
To fix this, you need to grant the users the ability to list the directory contents and create new files/folders. This corresponds with the suggestion of Table 1 in the document you found.
I see what you're saying about Administrators domain group. I'll just add them as local admins via GPO and that should solve that issue.
No, scary! This will grant those users administrative permission on your server. They will be able to see any file anywhere on that server.
If your goal is to provide a place that is private for each user, then the simplest approach is to grant each user permission to their own folder. Like this for Test User:
Notes for above:
I set the user's permission to Modify because there is no good reason why the user should change these permissions
The owner of this folder is unimportant. I leave it set to Administrators
You can, and I do, remove CREATOR OWNER. It adds no value in this situation and just causes confusion.
As for the second screen shot, the *-Admins folder is the root to which Everyone has special permissions on and can create folders. The folder for M* was created by the GPO, which makes M* the owner to which they have Full control of subfolders and files.
The GPO also created the Desktop folder, giving owner full permissions of subfolders and files. Inside the Desktop folder, permissions remain Full control for owner for subfolders and files. Even if it was the case that they only had permissions on subfolders
and files, wouldn't each subfolder under that one be considered a subfolder and file of the top folder?
If this works as you say, then Yes, it should work. But, I don't see the entries for use M*. Remember, there should be entries for the M* user that is a duplicate of CREATOR OWNER.
I suspect that Group Policy is creating the directories (elevated) and then changing the owner to M* afterward. This does not duplicate the CREATOR OWNER entries as needed. If this is the case, I consider it a flaw because your permissions do
not allow user M* to create files/folders, and group policy shouldn't bypass security.
I'm not saying your wrong, I'm just curious why the technet article would advise Creator/Owner giving full control of subfolders and files only if that were not correct. I can add the permissions for the users easily, I just don't see why I need to give
explicit permissions to access something when the GPO created those folders for me, which Microsoft recommends you allow. If the GPO can create folders and the folders are owned by the user, then the user can obviously add/create/modify/view those files and
folders.
When I restored the data, no permission were reset. Permissions were restored to the wonky version where the Everyone group has full access to everything. Ownership of the files/folders remained the same.
A couple things:
The article instructed the use of Folder Redirection Users group that had permissions to create files. Your examples didn't have that. Because of this, your user could create new files.
The article assumes that the directories you are creating will be empty. Existing files will be unreadable to everyone except Admins.
If you follow the directions in the article, then anyone in the Folder Redirection Users group can write files to anyone else's directory.
One benefit of the document's approach is that all the users could be redirected to the same folder using the article, and it would work. A benefit, I guess.
But, I like my user's separate and unable to see each other's files -- at all. This is why I recommend replacing CREATOR OWNER with the specific user.
I believe this document is a "how to get it done" document, not necessarily a best practices document. I see it as a starting point, and that's why I didn't follow it exactly.
Lastly, CREATOR OWNER permissions are useful but confusing. I avoid them unless I have the rare circumstance where they are perfect.
When I restored the data, no permission were reset. Permissions were restored to the wonky version where the Everyone group has full access to everything. Ownership of the files/folders remained the same.
To summarize:
In the user's directory, you need to provide permission to list and create new files/folders, and you need grant the user permission to the existing files.
