I found a KB link that describes your problem but for Windows 2000. I could
not find one for Windows 2003. There are no specific Windows 2003 newsgroups
as now the "server" newsgroups can be used for such. You may want to post in
the general server newsgroup. A full backup/image would probably be your
best bet to recover ntfs permissions. --- Steve
