There was a horrendous add-on that came with SP4 for NT 4 called the Security Configuration Manager. It was essentially a beta for the new permissions and the Security Configuration Editor in Win2K. It did add inheritance to the permissions structure, and in the process destroyed your ability to manage large directory hierarchies. If you have that installed, I am not surprised you are having problems. They are mild compared with what some others are seeing. Unfortunately, many people still recommend its use. Jesper
