How can I implement
AD delegation with Group Policy

AD based Group Policy is a very useful tool in implementing a delegation model. It provides a number of capabilities that can be used to manage aspects of security across multiple object types and ensures the adherence to a known state. Useful aspects include:

-      User Rights Assignment - This can be used to grant / revoke special abilities required for some management tasks.
-      Restricted Groups – This provides the capability to enforce security group membership. This capability is useful for ensuring a known-state membership of security sensitive groups. It is recommended that this mechanism is used to control the membership of groups such as Enterprise Admins, Schema Admins, and Domain Admins within an environment.
-      File System Permissions – This capability can be used to control the access control lists of NTFS file system objects.
-      Registry – This capability can be used to control access to specific registry keys.
-      Services - This capability can be used to control access to specific services.


All of the above can be assigned in a granular fashion to specific groups of objects depending on the underlying group policy strategy deployed. Indeed, the requirements of the delegation model may drive the group policy design to some degree.
