I have a Netware 5.1 server and using MS Office 97 applications. I am trying to restrict the users from moving or deleting the directories so I did what I saw in Novell TID#10071144, which states to give delete inhibit and rename inhibit to the directory. What happens is I try to move the folder and it gives me an error that says access is denied which is fine but all the files and subfolders move anyway. I am left with an empty folder. Does anyone know a way of setting restrictions so users can't move or delete the folder or anything in it. I can't set delete inhibit to all the files because you can't have delete inhibit on MS office files as it states in Novell TID 2937159.

I think what you need is to do is to restrict move and delete of the FILES in the directory and not the DIRECTORY itself.

So please check whether you have the right thing. "Di" and "Ri" apply both to directories and files.
