Last reviewed: September 23, 1997
Article ID: Q145922

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0

SUMMARY

This article contains information on configuring permissions for Windows NT accounts in the Administrator program of Microsoft Exchange Server, version 4.0.

MORE INFORMATION

Use the Permissions property page to specify the rights that users or groups have on the Configuration container.

Permissions that you set on the Configuration container are inherited by all objects and containers within the Configuration container. For example, a user with Modify Permissions rights on the Configuration container is able to modify permissions on all subordinate containers and objects of the Configuration container.

If permissions are set on the Site container, they are only inherited by the recipients container. This is useful for allocating permissions for Admin Operators who are only required to add/modify user mailboxes and not change any of the Connectors, Directory Replication, and Server configurations.
