Changed permission to a directory


Recommended Posts

And now the Administrator login and my login can not get some of the

subdirectories that I changed the permissions to.

 

When i went to change the permissions for this one directory for the group

everyone i got a message saying "Caution! Deny entries take prioity over

Allow Entries, which can cause unintented effects due to group memberships.

Do you want to continue?" i said yes because i was doing the group eveyone

and figured the Administrator was not included. however i am wrong. now

when i go to the directory i get this message directory "is not accessible.

Access is denied". however, the users can get into the directories that i

can not get into whether i am logged in as me or as the administrator.

 

I went back into the the permissions window and unchecked all the denied

boxes and still i can not get to those directories. i have no clue as to how

i can clear this up, does anyone have any ideas?

 

The directories are on a Windows 2000 Server with Service Pack 4.

 

Thank you,

You'll find the answer and reasons for your issues in this thread.

No I did not take ownership of the directory, The owner is Adminsitrator and

i did this as administrator. I just verified that the owner is the

Administrator.
