This view can be set in Tools --> options --> Permissions tab --> Enabling "Show permissions page for all object"

The NT account is set as Primary Windows NT Account on the General Tab but that is done when creating the mailbox: $mailBox.Put("Assoc-NT-Account", $sid)

But if there are no permissions set opening the mailbox can't be done :-(

Found an example on how to set the NT-Security-Descriptor but it is in Visual Basic.Net Can someone help me translate it?

code:
Dim usr As New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://CN=My User Name,OU=Marketing,DC=fabrikam,DC=com")
Dim newAce = New AccessControlEntryClass()
Dim usrSD As SecurityDescriptor = CType(usr.Properties("ntSecurityDescriptor").Value, SecurityDescriptor)
Dim usrAcl As AccessControlList = CType(usrSD.DiscretionaryAcl, AccessControlList)
newAce.Trustee = "AliceW"
newAce.AccessMask = - 1
newAce.AceType = 0
usrAcl.AddAce(newAce)
usrSD.DiscretionaryAcl = usrAcl
usr.Properties("ntSecurityDescriptor").Value = usrSD
usr.CommitChanges()

anyway, is this supposed to support older systems?
I mean, it's .Net so it's stuff can also be server 2k3 related.

Hi
Found this old post, and want to do a similar thing.

I would like to change the NT Primary account for a mailbox to another user. Its Exchange 5.5 + sp4 on W2k.

Any nice code for this ?

See for example http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnadsi/html/msdn_adsiexch.asp to get you started (not ).

Hi Sealeopard

I read on MS with the following quote:

LDAP name = Assoc-NT-Account / The primary NT account associated with this Mailbox

Quote:

Limitations of ADSI
ADSI cannot yet manipulate Access Control Lists (ACLs), which contain security information about which user has rights on a certain object. It cannot get the Windows NT Security Identifier (SID), the binary representation of a users account name, and thus cannot set the bits necessary to create the users rights. Thus developers cannot create a functional Mailbox object completely with ADSI, since a mailbox object requires the NT account SID in the Assoc-NT-Account attribute as well as the correct security rights on the mailbox object in the NT-Security-Descriptor attribute. The capability to manipulate ACLs is expected in a future release.






So it seems that it is not possibly to change the NT account with a script.
