I have a server setup running windows sever 2008 with a few test shares. I can get them to work with files, but none of them will accept uploading folders to them. I've tried domain and stand alone namespaces, as well as just standard shares. I am trying to get a fileshare up for a network running mostly W7 or XP. Any thoughts?

Please make sure that your users have at least the Change permission for the share permissions and the Modify permission for the NTFS permissions.

Did that, I also am trying it with full permission to no avail.

So what is the error message? Please make sure that you gave the right users the NTFS and the share permissions I suggested.

Hello, please post the Share and NTFS permissions form the folder.Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

Hi, I also would like to suggest you turn off UAC feature on the problematic system to test the issue. 1. Open User Accounts by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking User Accounts and Family Safety (or clicking User Accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking User Accounts. 2. Click Turn User Account Control on or off. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. If the issue persists, please post the sharing and NTFS permissions as “Meinolf Weber” required for our further research.
