ChangeSecurityPermissions method of the Win32_NTEventlogFile class
The ChangeSecurityPermissions WMI class method changes the security permissions for the logical file specified in the Win32_NTEventlogFile.Name property. If the logical file is a directory, then ChangeSecurityPermissions is recursive, and changes the security permissions of all of the files and subdirectories that the directory contains. ChangeSecurityPermissions returns an integer value of 0 (zero) if the permissions are changed, and a different number to indicate an error.
