Windows Vista® Resource Kit, Second Edition

Privileges

To ease the task of security administration, it is recommended that you assign privileges primarily to groups rather than to individual user accounts. When you assign privileges to a group, the privileges are assigned automatically to each user who is added to the group. This is easier than assigning privileges to individual user accounts as each account is created.

Table B-2 describes the privileges that can be assigned. The display name for each privilege is followed by the corresponding string constant (in parentheses). Many command-line tools refer to privileges by string constant rather than by display name. The default settings are taken from the Windows Vista Local Computer policy.
