Re: Folder creator owner



Nope, the owner of a secured object can modify the Security Descriptor in any way they want. It is hardcoded functionality.

Hi all,

We have a windows 2000 file server

We recently discover that a Folder Creator Owner could change the folder permission right. So all our security settings could be over pass by a owner who set it's own permission.

question: Is there a way to prevent a Owner of a folder or a file to change the permissions of it ? So, still be the owner, but wihtout the permissions to change the security settings.


Thanks
