If I recall correctly by-pass traverse checking was on by default with NT.
I have discovered that it is not on by default for W2K, bummer. I have a
heirarchy of folders for each of my departments that have been locked down
to just members of each department. Now I have the need to allow access
between departments. After turning by-pass traverse checking on and setting
it also for each folder, my users are unable to traverse folders they don't
have permissions to. The only way I could get the traversal to work was by
enabling List/Read also. The problem with this is it allows the users to
see the contents of folders they have no permission for.

How can I get the traversal functioning as it did with NT?
