Once the OU structure is created, define the permission delegations to properly secure
the objects to limited users.
As with Active Directory, there are two general ways to grant permissions:

* Add users to a group that already has the appropriate permissions assigned.
* Define new permissions on the ADAM objects.
{#r_Delegation__ul_mwx_dsm_44}

For this task, we discuss object level permissions. Refer to the Group Administration
section for information on group memberships.

Since we don't have a Users and Computers console for ADAM, all object level permissions
are defined using the Active Directory utility DSACLS.exe. This file is
found in the ADAM program directory. When running ADAM utilities it is best to launch the
ADAM Tools Command Prompt. This ensures the proper versions of the tools. DSALCS is used to
view and set object access rights.

Example: "`dsacls \\localhost:50010\dc=myCompany,dc=adam`" displays the
permissions assigned to the root of partition dc=myCompany,dc=adam
running on the localhost, port 50010. DSACLS is a complex tool used to create complex
delegation. Run "DSACLS /?" for usage notes.
