Rane,

This sounds like a permissions problem. Tried using Regmon or Filemon to
determine where the permissions problem is.

| Hi.
|
| I hope that I am posting to the correct group and that someone can provide
| me with some clues with a particular problem we are having.
|
| First some background:
| Our document management system uses iis with a custom isapi filter. The
| user (after authenticating via ntlm) is presented with a list of documents
| that they have security access to. The access to documents is defined by
| the actual access a user has to the document with it's file system
security
| (on the server).
| If a user wishes to access the metadata of a document via the web browser,
| the isapi filter reads the security from the document within the file
| system, and determines whether the user has access to the metadata
| properties of the document. If the user has access to the document, the
| user should have access to it's properties.
|
| The problem we are having is restricted to an active directory
environment.
| If a user is a member of the 'domain admins' or 'administrators' groups,
and
| a document has an acl that does not contain the 'everyone' trustee, but
does
| contain another group that the user is a member of, strange things start
to
| happen.
| Users will be able to fetch the 'object' that contains the document
| properties, but are denied access to the properties themselves (which
should
| never happen). This can be fixed by granting the 'domain admins' group
full
| control over the document, but does not really solve the problem.
|
| I hope this explanation of our problem makes sence, and that someone can
at
| least poke me in the right direction.
|
| Cheers!
|
