NTFS and Global Group Permissions

by matt.wong . Updated 25 years, 10 months ago

There are 2 Global Groups, “Company Staff” which consists of all employees and “Business Dept” which consists of a few employees in the business department. The people in “Business Dept” are also members of “Company Staff”. If I set a NTFS Read permission on a folder for the “Business Dept” and don’t include “Company Staff”, will the business people be able to access this folder? I know that if No Access is specified for “Company Staff”, then no one gets access. But I’m not sure what happens if I just specify for Business and don’t assign permissions for Company.
Hopefully this doesn’t sound too confusing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
