I was going through the procedures for setting up IIS 5 with minimum NTFS
permissions: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;271071
and I can't apply Creator Owner full access rights. I can only find this:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/Q311/4/44.asp&NoWebContent=1
on the Microsoft site. I saw one other post from a user on Usenet that had
the same problem, but no solution was given. I'm at a loss at this point.
I not only can't apply Creator Owner full access rights on the root drive,
but I refuses to take on any folder. I don't know just what I've done to
cause this - any ideas would be appreciated. I did apply several of the
security tips from here:
http://www.labmice.net/articles/winxpsecuritychecklist.htm but I backed out
many of them in effort to restore functionality. I did make a complete root
drive backup before applying the security tweaks, but I'd like to save that
for a last resort and I'm not absolutely sure that is going to fix NTFS
permission problems. Thanks for any help.

The mirror tells me lies
Could I mistake myself for someone
Who lives behind my eyes
Will he escape my soul
Or will he live in me
Is he tryin' to get out or tryin' to enter me
