The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0 SP4

SYMPTOMS
========

Several issues have been found when using the Security Configuration Manager
(SCM) MMC Snap-in that ships with Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4:

 - When using SCM to perform a system analysis, groups that have been configured
   to restrict membership are not being flagged when their membership violates
   the security attributes that has been set within SCM.

 - When setting DACL properties on a folder to not inherit from its parent and
   then changing SACL properties on the same object, the DACL inherit property
   will change from not to inherit to inherit.

 - After adding a registry key with SCM and then setting permissions on that
   key, the user is presented with file permissions rather than registry
   permissions.
