Guest wmeehan79@gmail.com Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 I've run into an odd problem open files from one of our file servers, when logged into the Citrix box. If I assign a group permission to a folder, then the user can open it fine. However, if I just assign permissions to the user then they are denied access. This is only happening on one file server, the other one seems to work fine. Both file servers have the same GPO applied. All the workstations can access the folders/files without any problems. I'm not even sure where to start looking, so any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Wayne
Guest Don Wilwol Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 Re: NTFS permissions work for group but not user Are the share permissions set on the group and not everyone or authenticated users?

I've tried several different groups and they all work fine, it's just when I assign users that it fails. I should have also included the following details: All servers are running Windows Server 2003. The only difference is that the problematic file server is running SP2, the others are not. Wayne

I've investigated a bit further and found that if the user account doesn't have a UPN logon, just the pre-windows 2000 login then it works fine. As soon as I give them a UPN logon then authentication fails.
