Guest John R Posted November 21, 2008 Posted November 21, 2008 I have a customer's server that is experiencing folder permission issues. Whener a user creates a new folder on the Shared drive, the permissions become set to only that user. It should be opened up to everyone in the domain. As the Administrator I even have to go in and take ownership and then reassign permissions. Any thoughts? Quote

Guest John R Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 The parent folder called SHARED had zero permissions in it. If I drill down to the child folders I get: Domain Users - Special Users - Special Administrators & Domain Admin set to Full Control Also, Everyone - Special I did go this morning and set the parent to mirror the child.

Are you restricting them from something that would be granted if you gave them "modify", for example? You state it should "be opened up to everyone in the domain", to me that means at least READ access for everyone (except for admins, of course) Quote
