Re: Remove ownership

Actually no, when the object is written, the privilege is enabled and the original owner is written right with the rest of the Security Descriptor when the object (file, ad object, reg entry, whatever) is created. At no point, unless the backup system is poorly written should the person doing the restore be the owner, you want that to be as atomic as possible or else if there was a failure between the recreation of the object and the updating of the owner it would be set incorrectly.

Now you can take that permission and do extra things with it, like for instance, set a specific owner in the SD on an object that already exists.

But it does hold security info. So once restore is complete all the ntfs permissions are back including the ownership. So during the initial creation the restore must be the owner and then this special permission you spoke of comes along and looks at the file/folder and restores the original ownership.

This is very cool if I understand you correctly.
