Shared folders problem – Abnormalities in Permissions.
LockedHi,
I am experiancing a problem with shared drives on a server. A number of users are experiancing ‘Read-Only’ permissions when they should have full control. Permissions are listed at the partition route on the server. All shared drives inherite these permissions. No other permissions are specified.They are three strange things here. First, users have retained their full permissions on the other shared folders, which are on the same server partition, (Windows SBS 2003, fyi.)
Secondly, Administrator is one of the accounts being affected by this. If you log in as administrator and browse to the Shared folder, (e.g. S:\) you only have read access, but if you log into the server and browse to the partition, (E:\), that stored the folder, you can navigate to within the shared folder and retain full access.
Finally, only some users are being affected. All permissions are specifed at a security group level, rather than individually. Users in the same security group are not being affected.
I would be really grateful if anyone has any ideas how to resolve this.
Thanks and Kind Regards,
chuck.
