Re: 2000 server security

Hi Chris.

You probably do not have permissions to the folder and need to first take
ownership and then grant yourself permission to the folder under
properties/security where you want full control as administrators.. After
that you should be able to access the folders assuming the issue does not
involve that they are encrypted with EFS as shown in properties/advanced for
the folder. When taking ownership be sure to select "replace owner on
subcontainers". To take ownership go to the parent folder's
properties -security/advanced - owner and select change owner to and select
administrators.

I have a folder on my win 2000 server that says I do not have permission to
view the files or folders, but I am an admistrator. I also logged into the
server as the administrator, but it still will not let me view the data.
Can
somebody help me with this?
