Re: Please help with folder permissions

Hi,

If I might inject here . . .
Olaf is quite correct in what he has outlined.
The Creator Owner permissions, after you have defined them and
clicked OK, are automatically adjusted to a grant for Subfolders
and Files, making it display outside of the Advanced view as
a Special grant.

What I really wanted to add was that, where Olaf suggested a
grant to Everyone for "This folder only", you might in fact want
to also allow reading of files in the topmost directory, which
that grant does not include. It all depends on what you are after.
If they should be able to read files at the top, then also add a
grant of Read and use the Advanced view to adjust it to Files
Only. Also, it may not matter in some circumstances, but I tend
to never use Everyone (old habit perhaps) but instead would
use a custom group , or Domain Users, or even Authenticated
users, choosing what is most narrow but inclusing of those that
ought have the grant.

Give "Full control" for "Sub-folders only" to "CREATOR OWNER" and to
"Everyone" you give special permissions, Traverse folder, List folder,
Read Attributes, Read Extended Attributes, Create Folders and Read
Permissions for "This folder only".


Thank you for the prompt reply!!

It seemed to work at first but I now have the problem that when you
add permissions to Creator Owner and click ok your ticks (where you
added the permissions) just disappear. Also im not sure if it's
connected but when you clcik ok the PC's administrators group appears
in the list but with no rights.

Do you have any ideas why the rights I assign to Creator Owner just
vanish?

Thanks
