NTFS Permissions Issue

[Guest Alan]

Hello,

 

I have an issue on my main file server. The structure starts at a root

folder with the Administrator, System, and Creator Owner permissions applied

and inheritance enabled. Each nested folder has a specific AD group created

to control access, this group is given Modify permissions and inheritance is

enabled at this level to this folder, subfolders and files.

 

The other day someone was able to move one sub-level directory tree from one

sub-level folder to another. To make things more interesting it was during

month's end processing!

 

I have successfully restricted the ability to perform this operation to

everyone besides administrators. However, I was very disappointed in my

testing that even though I am prompted by the an access denied popup window,

the entire directory was still copied to the other folder. What am I

missing? Has anyone faced this issue and what was your solution. Any input

is greatly appreciated.
