Have you ever had a request or need to assign non-admin users permissions to start, stop or query service status on your servers? I certainly have and what I found was that it was quite difficult to find clear information on how to complete this task. In the article I shall try to explain this clearly.

Hi! Thanks for your post on SubInACL. I'm trying to figure out how to use this as, I have a laptop harddisk which I have connected to my computer - unfortunately, I cannot access the "Andrew" folder in "Documents and Settings" folder - it keeps saying Access Denied.
How do I use SubInACL to change the ownership of the Andrew folder to belong to "KC" user on my machine "Kristy" i.e. kristy\kc (KC has Administrator privileges)
Thanks,
Kristy
I forgot to mention that the current owner of "Andrew" is builtin\administrators
I found this out by:
subinacl /file "F:\Documents and Settings\Andrew" /display
Hi (again)! Good news :) By God's Grace, I've found the commands that work for me.
First, I got the values from an existing directory that I could open:
subinacl /file "C:\test" /display
Then I applied the same owner / group + full permissions to the directory:
subinacl /subdirectories "F:\Documents and Settings\Andrew\*" /grant=kristy\kc=F
subinacl /subdirectories "F:\Documents and Settings\Andrew\*" /setprimarygroup=kristy\none
subinacl /subdirectories "F:\Documents and Settings\Andrew\*" /owner=kristy\kc
Just posting this in case someone else might benefit from it :0)
