Overview

Active Directory objects and their attributes have permissions just like files on a file server. You can assign permissions to non-admin accounts to perform certain tasks. A common use case for this is a Help Desk. Often times the Help Desk will need the ability to reset a users's password, or unlock an account because of too many failed logon attempts.


Delegate Control

Microsoft has created a wizard for setting AD permissions as described above, this wizard is called 'Delegate Control' and it can be accessed by right clicking an object within Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC for short).


Password Reset

In order to allow another user to perform a password reset you need to set the following permissions:

Type: Allow
Applies To: Descendant User Objects
Permissions: Reset password

Optionally if you want to allow the user to set 'Require password change at next logon' set these permissions as well:

Type: Allow
Applies To: Descendant User Objects
Properties: Read pwdLastSet
Properties: Write pwdLastSet


Unlock Account

In order to allow another user to unlock an account set the following permissions:

Type: Allow
Applies To: Descendant User Objects
Properties: Read lockoutTime
Properties: Write lockoutTime


Join/Re-Join Computer to Domain

Type: Allow
Applies To: This object and all descendant objects
Permissions: Create computer objects
Type: Allow
Applies To: Descendant Computer Objects
Permissions: Reset password
Type: Allow
Applies To: Descendant Computer Objects
Permissions: Validated write to DNS host name
Permissions: Validated write to service principal name
Type: Allow
Applies To: Descendant Computer Objects
Properties: Read account restrictions
Properties: Write account restrictions


Move Computer Object

Type: Allow
Applies To: This object and all descendant objects
Permissions: Create computer objects   (on the destination OU)
Permissions: Delete computer objects   (on the source OU)
Type: Allow
Applies To: This object and all descendant objects
Permissions: Write all properties

Note 1: On the default 'Computers' container, you may need to remove the 'Everyone: Deny Delete all child objects' before you can move computer objects on of this container.

Note 2: I found a situation where you may also need the 'Delete Subtree' permission as well if the computer object contains subobjects.
