Re: How to create a template of folders including permissions



It sounds as if you have a fairly straightforward task.
If you have not yet made your tool for this, then start/run
mmc and then add the two snapins: Security Templates,
and, Security Configuration and Analysis.
With the Security Templates tool, make a new template
and then define the structure for some instance of a job's
storage. It sounds as if you only need to define the security
at a root of a job's storage and then for the Contracts subdir.
It would help if you could do this on a machine where there
actually is such a job's storage.
When done, save the template.
Then, using the other tool, import the template, clearing the
database (checkbox in import dialog). When you do this
the first time it asks what database to use, and you just say
new database with some temp name. After the template is
imported, analyze (right-click on the to node of tool), and
make sure that template matches what is in use.
OK, you are done.
The saved template is a .inf file that you can edit with
any text editor, like notepad. So, in future, copy the base
template and edit so the path to each folder is changes to
that correct for the new job.

Hello,

I'd like to create a template of folders for the end users, including
permissions. When we get a job, this new file structure is created
including many many sub-folders.

Most of the sub-folders would be fine inheriting the permissions, but I
have at least one sub-folder "Contracts" where one user gets full
permission and the rest of the inherited people get read-only.

I'd don't know where to start looking, so I'm here. Any suggestions?
If an answer is scripting, I am quite new to that area and may need a
few examples or references. Also, I know coping folders only inherits
permissions, moving folders also moves the permissions.
