Re: Locking folders but NOT files. How?



From the GUI you can go to the Advanced Tab and configure permissions that
will apply to "This folder only", "This folder, sub-folders and files" or
"Files only". Using a combination of these options you can configure much
more granular permissions than by using the pre-canned permissions on the
main Security tab.

To automate the process across multiple servers, you can also use the cacls
command-line utility or vbscript - check out sample scripts from the Technet
Script Repository to get you started.

Hello.
I know this should be simple but how do I set the permission on a folder
being served by a windows 2003 server such that DOMAIN USERS can create,
append, delete any file but only DOMAIN ADMINS can create or delete
folders.
Thanks

Pishi
