Hi folks!

I exported 50 DLs. I can see "Members" as a header but I cannot find
anything for the People that I
included in my permissions tab. They are also the ONWERS of the DLs.
How can i change those owners using the process export / edit / import ?

Thanks a lot

Use header.exe to obtain a list of exportable fields for a given
object.

A Distribution List can have only one "Owner". Others may have the
"Role" of owner, but that's not the same thing. A "role" gives the
recipient a set of permissions on an object. But ownership is a
single-valued property of the DL.

To export the property, add the "Owner" property to the CSV header
record.

The "NT-Security-Descriptor" is, I believe, the property you're
looking for. This is the contents of the "Permissions" tab.

Well, I put the "NT-Security-Descriptor" in my header and it gave me a bunch
of weird
numbers. I'd like to get the Permissions Tab's users names accounts.

Thanks anyway

The names are in the NT SAM database. The SID is stored in the
security descriptor. And, since each entry can have a variety of
permissions on the object, these permissions are also in the security
descriptor. That's the reason for the "weird numbers."

I don't think you're going to be able to get the permissions list in
any sort of "plain text" format.

the owner of the DL is a NT user with "user" permissions. the only
difference from the other users with "user" permission is that the owner is
visible to all users while browsing the GAL from outlook.

use the "owner" header for importing/exporting the owner, and use the
"obj-users" for adding more NT users with "user" permissions to the DL.

Ofir.
