We have an Archive where files are stored in a certain pattern. The archive is maintained by two individual users. I am the networks administrator. The server is a Windows 2000 server.
Each item of our archive is a folder with five subfolders for folders and files. I have created a template folder with this structure and given the five subfolders appropriate permissions of which those maintaining the archive are allowed everything short of “full control” and Domain Users “Read & Execute”, “List” and “Read”. In one of the five folders a group of users have been given the same set of permissions as the two maintainers.
Those two users are supposed to add new items to the archive by copying and renaming the template. Then the problem is that permissions are changed from the template. Domain users can only List and the group of users that should have further permissions in one subfolder do not have any rights at all, except for their being members of Domain Users. The two maintainers, however, keep their rights.
Can anyone tell me what to do?
Thanks, Lasse
