Hi David Schenz,
Thanks for your help.
All the user1, user2 & user3 are not admin and the
folder are not
inheriting permissions but the files in the folder are
inheriting the
permissions from the folder.
In your explaination you do mention that user3 can
delete the data
folder because it had FC. If user3 only want to delete
the folder and
the files that he own in the data folder then what
permission should
be given to user3 ? Or can these be done via special
permissions ?
If not what is the best solution ? According to my
admin, user3 can
only be given add & read in data folder. Is it true ?
For your info all
the 3 user are from 3 different group membership.
All help r welcome.
Cheers.
