Problem with security issue with some of the folder setup.

Hi,

I have few question about the way security works.

I have share folder where the security is setup for Domain user and Everyone.

Domain user has read only access

Everyone has full access

Some of the user can access the folder without any problems but other user get access denied when save/creating any folders/files

Why will some user can access but not the other.

If "Everyone" has modify on the NTFS privileges, the share privileges might still be limiting. Also, I see the files arer located on a DFS. Check if the users are connecting to the intended target and if differences in share configuration might limited the users.

Also be aware that inheritance might be blocked lower down the tree. If a user reports an issue, make sure ti use the effective permissions feature to help your diagnosis

On share we set to full control (I though it doesn't make any difference if it set to read or change as share permission only give access to user to the location)

User are access the files directly

Can you please confirm if I'm right: Domain user have read only access (All user are domain users) on this folder but everyone group have modify access.

Does this mean user will be only allow to read files but not write because lowest permission for user is read only.
