delegate Admin OU

[sam]

Pardon me! I have another stupid question to you. Hope you
guys
don't mind since I have just started learning Windows 2k.

Let's say I delegate some administration work for SAM to
an OU to
create, delete, pause users.

How does SAM do all of this.

1. By lock on the server?

How can he does the add user from his Windows Prof 2000
workstation.

I know that SAM needs to load an Administrator program for
windows
Prof. 2k worstation. Where can I download this program.

Thanks in advance.

Windows 2000 Active Directory does not use sam. It stores account information in
ntds.dit. Anyhow Active Directory delegation relies mostly on Active Directory object
permissions that are similar to ntfs permissions. Adminpak can be used to manage a
W2K domain from a domain workstation and is on the install cdrom in the I386 folder.
Using mmc snapins can also be used to remotely manage some functions. --- Steve
