Re: Can this be done without affecting current configuration

What is granted on the shares when they do but should not have access?
What is the membership of the sharing server's Users group, not all the
local users but the other members . . . Authenticated Users? Network? etc.

There is something to which access is granted, such as the machine
local Users group, or Network, or Authenticate Users, which does
include the NonDomainUser group member(s).

Hi,

I have a AD network with 3 2003 DCs. Most of our workstations are
attached to the domain while only 40 PCs are non-domain machines.

What I would like to do is to allow all non-domain PCs to be able to
access one shared folder in one of the member server within the domain
using one particular user account.

I created a group called nondomainuser and put a newly created user
account into the group. I removed this user from the domain users
group so it only belong to the nondomainuser group. On the shared
folder, I setup the Share/NTFS permission so that only the
nondomainuser group have read access to it. With this setup, the user
is able to access the shared folder without problem. However, this
account is also able to access shared folders that are accessible by
the members in the domain users group which is something I don't want.
The thing that I don't understand is this user account is not a member
of the domain users, but he is still able to access shared folders
that are for members of the domain users.

I know I might be able to achieve this by removing everyone from the
share permission on the share folder. However, this is going to lot of
time and I might miss out something as I many shared folder on the
server

Can someone advice me if there is any simple solution for such
problem?

Thanks

All the shares are set with read/change for everyone and I fine tuned
the permission on the NTFS level. Only users are defined in the
nondomainuser group.

Thanks

No problem, I guess . . . I am not sure what you are saying.
Since share level is granting to Everyone it is basically a no-op,
meaning
only NTFS is controlling access of Modify or less. But you still have
not
said that is granted at NTFS, and whether things like Interactive and/or
Authenticated Users is a member in the sharing machine's Users group.




Sorry, I think I am lost on what you are trying to ask.

I have different level of accesses for different share folders. My
intention is to have this nondomainuser group to be able to only access
one single folder in the server. My problem is that this user group is
also able to access shares that have permission for domain users.

Thanks
