Hi

i have win2000 server domain i make some folders shared
on
the domain controller for example
folder X:
only G User can open this folder (have
permission)
but what if that user make shortcut to some file inside
that private folder and put it in the folder Y: that all
the users can see
ofcourse all the users can access his folder so
i know the solution is to sit from the security tab this
user only instead of every one but i cant do that because
i want to inherait to the subfolders and it appear every
time the Every one as default so the question is
HOW CAN I SET THE SECURITY FOR SPCIFIC USER AND INHERIT
IT
WITHOUT APPEARING EVERY ONE?
THANKS FOR ANY HELP

Click to expand...

what kind of permission?
If it's NTFS permission (Security-Tab of the folder properties), which all
the other users don't have then there's no problem as they are not able to
access this folder.
If it's just a thing of not seeing the drive/folder in a specific
application then it's basicly not safe from other users having permission
to access it.

but what if that user make shortcut to some file inside
that private folder and put it in the folder Y: that all
the users can see

Just untick the "inherit"-box, choose "copy permissions" (to keep all the
currently inherited permissions), delete "everyone" and add the specific
user of your choice with permissions of your choice.
