I would double check that the permissions are exactly the same on both shares for
ntfs permissions. Be sure to check ntfs advanced permissions of the folder you are
having a problem with. Settings there are not always apparent from the main security
properties page. You may also want to change share permission to read if users are
supposed to have only read for ntfs permissions also. Of course share permissions
only apply to network access. --- Steve
