Security Question |
|
|
I am trying to set up the Management Server Action Account as a low
privelleged Account by making it a domain user and giving it the following
rights on each of my Windows 2003 agents:
• Member of the local Users group
• Member of the local “Performance Monitor Users” group
• “Manage auditing and security log” permission (SeSecurityPrivilege)
• “Allow log on locally” permission (SeInteractiveLogonRight)
I have 200 servers, and obviuosly do not want to visit each machine so I am
trying to set up a group policy to populate these rights on each server, now
i have a couple of issues with this, firstly, I can easily set up the User
rights assignment but how can I populate the local groups, I believe with
group policy the only way to populate a local group is using "restricted
groups" but if I understand correctly this only effects the local
administrators group, so how do i get the action account in the “Performance
Monitor Users” for example,
Also, how do i set these local permissions against a domain controller which
has no local groups?
any ideas greatly appreciated.

Just curious - why are you doing this?
