5. Select the administration account and click Advanced to open the Access Control Settings for Users window.
   Click Add to open the Select Users, Computers, or Groups window.
6. Type the name of the administration account, click Check Names, and click OK. The Permission Entry for Users window opens. On the Object tab, from the Apply onto drop-down list, select User objects.
