Re: Prevent / deny folder creation on 2003 server from xp workstation



When I set the correct permissions and apply it to the folders only, I
still have issues with files being read-only. The way you said to do
it was supposed to set these permissions for folders only, but when I
try to open a file in this folder, it is read/only still. here is what
I have for this test folder's permissions:

admins: full control
users: in special permissions: apply to this folder & subfolders: allow
everything except:
'create folder/append data'
'take owner'
'change permissions'....
But when I apply changes and get back to the main security settings
dialouge, the only checked permission is 'list folder contents'... no
read or write access or modify. I want my users to be able to do
everything except create folders. They can delete all they want, we
have backups.

Is the parent/child propagation affecting it? if files are child
oblects, wouldn't that mess up the file exclusion? Maybe? I wouldn't
want to set individual permissions on thousands of folders. I don't
have any other ideas why this wouldn't work. Do you?
