RE: File Security in Windows Server 2003.
say to create user-groups for "shares," what do you mean by "shares"? Do
you
mean that instead of having one shared folder (currently it is "Shared" on
the server) we should break this up into multiple shared folders, with each
folder being accessible only by a particular user-group?
Shares and shared folders are the same thing.
If you've a fair amount of data, yes, in the interests of damage-limitation
you should split it up. Basically give each department its own share, and
(if necessary) give departments read-access to other department's shares, but
only give them write-access to their own.
Where would I set up these user-groups?
--
That depends if the server has the Active Directory installed on it, or not.
If yes, then it's done under the Active Directory controls in Control
Panel>Administrative Tools.
If No, then it's in the same general location but under Computer
Management>Local Users and Groups.
