What permissions do i need to set in order to limit domain users so
that they can create folders but can not delete them or move them.
I have a company that would like to see a prompt "do you want to move
this" come up but i think thats going beyond the permissions
capabilities so i don't think thats possible.

Click to expand...

In the permissions tab setup a permission for
the Group (e.g., Full Control) then press advanced,
and select that permission/group combo and select
edit.

This will get you to "special permissions" and allow
you to see the individual (real, actual) permissions.

(Each of the "standard" permissions is really a "set of
underlying special permissions.)

You will have to experiment a bit to find the exact
set necessary to do everything you wish and not what
you don't wish them to do but generally you will take
away the "delete" by either never giving it in the first
place or by clearing or denying it.

Also note, you may need to use a more explicit tool
than Explorer is you wish the behavior to be different
for files than for directories.

XCALCS has this level of control (Support Tools AND
the ResKit)

SetAcl.exe has even more control -- free from SourceForge.net.
