How do you make it so the owner of a file or folder can't change the permissions in Windows 2000 Server?
I want to create a directory share for Windows 2000 Server that any user can write to. However, I want it so when users add or create files, they can't view or modify others' data. This works out fine, but how do you make it so the owner of a folder can't change the permissions, while still leaving them as the owner? Otherwise users could deny Admins permissions to that file, and then admins would have to reset the permissions for that file which can be time-consuming. Any ideas?

Sorry but you can't. If they created the folder/file, then they have the rights to modify it as well. This is the problem for administrators everywhere. The one things is, that as an admin you can take ownership of that file and fix any rights issues after the user screws them up. You may have to log into the server as the local admin to do it if they removed the domain admin rights however.

you easily would desire to take possession of the folders via ideal clicking and choose all, yet on the XP gadget. The XP gadget would have difficulty understanding 7 protection because it somewhat is distinctive. After that set permissions to allow all human beings complete get right of entry to. Then the two machines can get right of entry to it.
