You're both quite right, but what I really need is to give the user access without them having the ability to view other organisation units and their contents, is this possible? &nbsp;

What was i thinking, i've setup a management console containing users and computers, I've drilled down and started a new sheet for the &nbsp;organisations unit, which has been saved as the only sheet and does exactly what I want, which is restrict the end user so he can modify and view only those users in his organisational unit. <br />

Odd request, <br />
<br />
is it possible to restrict access in Active directory users and cumputers, say so a user with rights to add users can only view a paticular group or items under a paticular organisational unit and can create users only for that group or under that organisational unit?<br />
<br />
If not does anyone know of a third party package that could reside on a client machine and do the above?<br />
<br />
Seems like a bit of a tall order I know but any suggestions warmly received.

Restricting access in Active Directory Users and Computers

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
