Deny folder access for administrators



Working in a company with a windows 2000 domain controller, and a
windows 2003 server, the financial department asked me if it is
possible to put files on the network and deny every administrator
access to these files.

Backup's of these files are made by the financial department, so there
is no need for the backup operator to access these files. Giving them
ownership of the files is not enough for them, because every
administrator can take back the ownership.

Using zip or rar to encrypt these files is not workable because the
finacialsoftware must be able to read/write to these files.

Tia,
