Hey folks,
I am in desparate need of help to solve my problem.
I have written a service that examines a table in a database, and creates a
directory hierarchy based on data in the table. It then programmaticall y
grants and revokes privileges to groups on the different directories in the
hierarchy.
It creates the directories correctly, and on my XP development machine, it
assigns the privileges correctly.
When I deploy it to the target machine (Win 2k server), when I look at the
security in the directories, I get a message the that rights are out of
order. I have to manually go into explorer, look at securty and let it
reorder it for the privileges to work correctly.
I've used the knowledge base article (269159-How to use VB and ADsSecurity
to property order ACEs in and ACL) to write a reorder function.
The function, however, dies on the last line, calling the
SetSecurityDesc riptor method with an ArgumentExcepti on. The helpful message
was "The parameter is incorrect".
Has anyone done this on a 2k machine, found the error, and know how to
"correct" the parameter?
I've seen a few other people on the web have this problem, but I couldn't
find any answers.

You could try psexec to run the session locally. Psexec is at this link http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/psexec.shtml
This is assuming you have a rights issue.

Hi there
I need to be able to programmatically set permissions on registry keys using
VB / VBScript / VBA. So far I have had a look at doing this using the
WScript.Shell object, API calls, and WMI but the only one of these that goes
any where near registry permissions is WMI and that is only to get the
permissions of a key (cannot set). I am also quite happy for the code to
call an external program to perform the task but can't seem to...

Hello,
I'm trying to check for and add a field to a table to a back end database

I have to do it in code because there are several sites that need an
automated update (as opposed to manually adding the field). The platform is...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
