    How do I add a user to manage a distribution group in AD

    Okay, we have a 2003 Server network. I have several distribution groups setup in AD. What I want to accomplish is to add 2 users to be able to manage 'group A'. When I open up the properties of 'group A', there is a tab for 'managed by' but I can only add one user. How to I add another user to manage 'group A'?

    You can't. You can only have one user manage a group.

    Sorry.

    Try creating a Security group, adding this group to the security settings for the Distribution group, and adding the users you want to control the Distribution group to the Security group.
