dssec.dat question

Hi,

I would like to ask if there is an impact when editing dssec.dat and if I have multiple DC will it get replicated to other DCs?

Hello



Please note that If the attribute you want to secure is not in the list, you will need to modify the %SystemRoot%\system32\dssec.dat file on the computer running the ACL Editor.


You must edit the dssec.dat file on your workstation, not on the DC. When determining which property permissions to display in a user's ACL account or any other AD object, Win2K looks at the dssec.dat file on the workstation on which you're logged on, not the DC.

I'm logged on to the DC. There are attributes of user accounts I cannot see, therefore need to edit dssec.dat. I need to set those attributes for delegation purpose. If I edit dssec.dat on the DC im logged in and do the delegation with those attributes, does the changes in delegation replicate to other DCs?
