Re: Permissions resetting in Blocked Inheritance OU's



Thanks for the clear explanation and KB articles, that really cleared it up
for me. I can stop puling my hair out now. It all makes sense when you know
what to look for!!!

Thanks again.

I have been trying to grant the "Send As" security permission to a
directors
account for his PA. This user account is in an OU that has Blocked
Inheritance in group policy.

I can add the PA's account to the ACL and assign the send as permission.

If i leave the account for a little while and go back to it the PA's
account
has been replaced with an unrecognised account with just a SID and
different
permissions.

Initial i thought it was inheriting permissions but the inherit
permissions
box is unticked, and as far as i can see they are not inheriting.

I have tested with other accounts and it only seems to affect accounts
that
are in OU's that have blocked inheritance set in Group Policy. This
confused
me as i can't see how AD permissions and Group Policy inheritance are
linked.

I can assign the PA send as permission to other users in other OU's that
are
not blocked but i have tried assigning send as for other users to other
users
in the blocked OU's with the same results, the permissions reset to what
they
were.

Unless i am missing something it isn't to do with inheritng permissions as
i
set permissions on the parent OU and set inheriting which worked to start
with, but then after a short period the inheritance had been taken off and
the permssions ahd the unrecognised user again.

I am confused, as you probably are by reading this post (sorry).

Any advice would be great.
