Granting Permissions
In order to install a script on the server, you need correct permissions on two folders:
-
You must be an owner of the application folder—the folder in which events are monitored—in order to edit or save scripts there.
-
You must have Author or Owner permission on the folder in which agents are created. This permission is granted in the following steps, which are to be followed by a server administrator.
To grant permissions for installing scripts
-
Using the Microsoft Exchange Server Administrator program, in the Systems Folder container under \Events Root, select the EventConfig_<ServerName> folder that corresponds to the server on which the Microsoft Exchange Event Service is running.
-
On the File menu, choose Properties, and then choose Client Permissions.
-
Choose Add, and then select the user who will have permission to run applications or other agents on this server.
-
In the Roles dialog box, select Author or another role with greater permissions (Owner); take special care when granting Owner permission because of the power this role entails.
