Read Only folder settings 2003 server std R2

[Guest Leo]

I am not able to remove the read-only settings for folders created under the

d: partition. I am trying to create a shared folder in which network users

can create and share documents. However, network users are not able to save

into the sahred folder even though I have given full access to 'Everyone', or

even if I give full access to a specific user. I have tried modifying the

registry and using the attrib command and the read-only setting still has not

changed. Please provide assistance as to how to remove the read-only access.

Check your NTFS Permissions.

 

The shares permissions really don't do much with NTFS volumes because you

can give people every permission under the sun, but unless they have the

NTFS permissions to do anything, they can't.

I did not use the share permission. I gave full access under the NTFS

permission. However, I am still not able to remove the read-only setting.

I would assume that you removed the went into advanced settings of the Security

tab and removed the check mark next to "Allow Inheritable Permissions from

the parent to propagage..."? I've been using R2 and have not come across

this problem at all. Someone once recommended that when creating shares

(for the simplest configuration), Add the Everyone group to the Share permissions

with full access, then go into the Security tab to set the NTFS permissions

to those groups that need access. Just make sure you turn off the Inheritance

from the parent folder.

Hello Leo,

 

On the share you have to set the share permission for authenticated users

to Full control and then configure the Fodler permissions for your users/groups.

The default Share permissions in Windows Server 2003 is Everyone - Read

(only) - this is set when the Share is created. If you want users to be

able to modify things via the Share you have to change the Share Permissions

from Read to Change.

 

The resulting permissions for a user are the more restrictive of the Share

and NTFS permissions.

It's perfectly useless to know the right answer to the wrong question.

Hi,

 

Have you checked your Share Permissions? In Windows 2003 Server, ALL new

shares are automatically created with Everyone=Read SHARE permissions. What

this does is make everyone read regardless of NTFS permissions as it is the

most restrictive of the two combined.

 

Go to the Share tab on the folder and click Permissions and see what the

share permissions are.

 

Cheers,

Lara
