More info?)
Hi Steve
As i said i m cosidering "Microsoft Solutions for Security" for securing my
Windows 2000 Server
I have a small concern about Registry permissions(Appendis B) given at page
378
The following info is given for each registry
Permissions Apply
Configure & Propagate
Configure & Replace
Do Not Replace
Inheritable/Can Propagate
I could understand all of them but except "Inheritable/Can Propagate"
I mapped "Inheritable/Can Propagate" to
Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object checkbox
but felt its ambiguous
as this(Inheritable/Can Propagate) was selected only when "Do Not Replace"
was selected
could u please tell me know where does this(Inheritable/Can Propagate) fit
in DACL Editor
i m reposting in this thread expecting u r help
any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance !!!
Cheers,
ambharish
