I am working on Windows 2000 Server with 200 user accounts. I experience a problem on the server that it get stuck for few minutes when working in Windows Explorer; Especially while assigning permission on home folders. Home folders are created for user accounts through active directory users and computers. Later I assign permissions on the home folders; like full control for Administrator and the user; Read and write permission for some teaching staff members (As I work in an educational institution).

Even the problem persists when I browse the explorer directories and files / copying files. What could be the reason? Service pack 4 is installed in the server and Symantec Antivirus Corp. Edition 8.0 is keep updated.

Would the Admin and User account permission already be set that way IF
you let AD create these?

Adding permissions for others won't hurt anything (as long as it meets your
security policy.)

What problem? "Gets stuck"?
