Hello

I am facing a problem with windows permissions

Currently at the file system has about 7 different folders and each folder has its own specific permissions.

Type of Groups i have set in my active directory are

Modify Only
Read Only
Read/Write Only

Recently there has been a request by the managers to have an option for READ/WRITE permission for specific users in the domain.

I would like for a person to be able to read the document and at the same time the person can write on the same document( modify changes), but they should not be able to save he document on the same name or over write on that document. Instead it should ask to change the name or can be saved in a different folder if have permissions.

I have looked into xchacls.exe and subinACL,but it doesn't make sense.

Any help would be highly appreciable.

Thank

Rishi

Try the "Questions" forum; the "Discussion" forum is for matters of general discussion, not specific problems in search of a solution.

Post problems such as this to the "Question" forum, rather than the "Discussion" forum. There are those who specifically seek out problems in need of a solution, and that's where they go to look for such.

Additionally there are the benefits that:

1) The "Questions" forum provides for your feedback, by way of your being able to mark "helpful" responses as such. This does not necessarily mean that a given response contained the complete solution to your problem, but only that it served to guide you toward it. This is intended to serve as an aid to those who may in the future have a problem similar to yours, so that they might have a ready source of reference available, thereby perhaps obviating the need for them to repeat questions previously asked and answered.

2) The revised TR makes it quite difficult to find both "Discussions" and "Questions" that have not had a fairly recent post, owing to some functions comingling them in the listings. By keeping each type in their respective forums, it is easier for all to find what they are looking for.
