Active Directory permissions

Here's my problem - I work for a large business, a division of a larger business, which is a part of a HUGE corporation. I've been trying to get permissions to move objects from one OU to another, because when we reimage a machine, it gets placed in the larger business automatically until it gets moved to the respective sub-business. I've been told I have the needed permissions, and I can add or delete items in the OU of the parent company, plus add, delete or move objects in my company's OU. But I can't move from the parent OU into the sub-business OU. (Our servers are maintained at the Corporate level).

Any ideas? They have deleted and re-added, in case the replication didn't work, but there's still no joy in Mudville. icon_confused.gif

TIA

    Upgrade from hamsters to monkeys.... I dunno. Sounds like you should have it. Maybe somebody gave you permissions that don't know what they're doing. (Like me)

    What error/message do you get?

    Is there anything in the event log?

    The error is "Access is denied". I don't know what the error log says - I'll have to check that out. It's a B**** 'cuz it's controlled from Mexico. Oh, well, "onward through the fog".

    The problem is that when the permissions were set at the parent OU, the child OU's did not inherit. I've seen these plenty of times when permissions are given using the DACL instead of the Delegate Control Wizard. have the responsible parties check the child OU's to ensure the permissions were inherited.

    Are you able to view the "effective permissions" for your account for the parent ou and the sub-business ou? You have to have use Advanced Settings from the View menu to see the Security tab, then right click on the ou, properties, security, advanced, effective permissions.

    My first thought would be this aswell, have seen it myself with non inheritance of permissions by child OU's.

    Let us know what they find.
