NTFS Permissions and rights Nicolas Macarez 10-09-2005

Hi you all,

I have a shared folder named Common sitting on a Win2K Server machine.
I want to prevent the members of the "authenticated users" group to delete
this folder Common. However I want to enable them to do what they want with
the sub-folders and files inside this folder.

How can I handle this with the advanced NTFS permissions and rights set on
this folder?

Help appreciated

Nicolas

The thing that most users miss is that a user or group can be listed
multiple times with different special permissions for all the possibilities
in the "apply onto" selection box. What I would so is to give authenticated
users read/list/execute/write permissions on the main security page which is
for folders, subfolders, and files. Then give them the permissions they need
for subfolders and files which probably would be the equivalent of modify
permission. The link below does a good job of explaining special permissions
if you want more detail. --- Steve
