Hello everyone,
I have an issue with a windows 2000 server that is really stumping me.
We have an ftp server set up so that we can access utilities and other files
from our remote sites.

My predecessor was fired and I inherited a file/folder access issue.

It seems that the Admin (and all other users) have been locked out of
several important folders.
How can I reset the permissions so that they are back to their default
settings?

Thank you in advance.

You need to seize ownership of these folders. Look under Windows
Help if unsure how to do this.
