Terminal server Profile folders

[Guest SPP-IT]

When a new user is created we add under terminla server profile in AD the

path to the location we store all are users profiles.

\\Servername\profiles\username what is happening, when the folder for the

user is created it is not inherating permisions from the parent folder. This

is not a problem for the domain admins, but we have Help Desk Techs who are a

member of a Group and we have added them to the profiles folder with modify

permisions, since the folders do not inherat the perminsion we need to go in

manually and check this option. I have two questions. 1) is this because the

System Account is creating the folder and by design does not check the option

to inherat permisions and if so 2) how do i fix this so we don't have to do

it manually. Thank you for your help in advance

You would have to precreate the folders ahead of time. I don't think

there is a way to automatically fix the problem as it's done from a

security perspective.
