I have two very strange folder problems. To start off, I am the Domain Admin
and have all rights. My domain is Windows 2003. I have created a folder in
my document directory under my home home directory (H:\Docs) and it is called
New Folder. I would like to rename it, but the system will not let me. I
get the access denied. System is full or write protected message. Looking
at the properties, it is Read Only, which I cannot clear, I am the owner.
Administrator cannot modify it either. If I log directly on my Data Server
(the location of the home directories) as me, I cannot even open the Docs
directory. On the same subject but a differnt server, there is a directory
that was created to temporarily store data as we moved data around. Now that
directory cannot be deleted or renamed. The folder is called hi01 but when
you try and delete it, the error message is Cannot delete My New DW Site.
Cannot find the specified file. Make sure you specify the correct path and
file name. I am out of guesses and any help is appreciated.

Steve
