ADAM - How to add Authenticated Users to Readers group?
This is excerpt from ADAM Help, Administering ADAM, Administering access
control:
Windows security principals
By default, authenticated Windows security principals in ADAM can only read
objects in the schema directory partition. To enable authenticated Windows
security principals to read any other objects, you can assign permissions on
objects to the well-known security ID (SID) authorized user. You can assign
Read permissions for an entire directory partition by making authorized user
a member of the Readers group on that directory partition. Or, you can
assign Read permissions on an object-by-object basis, using dsacls.
>> You can assign Read permissions for an entire directory partition by
making authorized user a member of the Readers group on that directory
partition.
Does 'authorized user' mean 'NT Authority\Authenicated Users'? I have tried
using ADAM ADSI Edit program to add it as member to the
'cn=Readers,cn=Roles,...' group. I tried the syntax of 'Authenicated
Users', 'cn=Authenicated Users', 'NT Authority\Authenicated Users', 'cn=NT
Authority\Authenicated Users', 'cn=S-1-5-11' and various forms with
quotation marks but none of them were accepted. Can I really make this
well-known security principal as a member of Readers group?
BTW, I was able to add 'Authenicated Users' to the ACL of my partition root
using dsacls. The dsacls utility recognized it and add it as 'NT
Authority\Authenicated Users' in the ACL.

Try the SID DN syntax:
<SID=S-1-5-11>

Re: ADAM - How to add Authenticated Users to Readers group?
Thanks a lot. It works!
In fact the brackets are required exactly as you wrote. ADAM changed it to
a foreign security principal but it is not listed under the
"cn=ForeignSecurityPrincipals" container though.
Is this <SID=...> form documented anywhere? I like to know more details
about it. Thanks!!

There are 3 "special" DN syntaxes supported by AD and ADAM: GUID, WKGUID and
SID. SID seems to have the added benefit of creating FSPs on the fly when
needed, but I'm not sure where that is documented. The other special DNs
are documented right next to that topic in MSDN.
HTH,
