Global/Local Groups in AD

[BillyBoy114]

Hi All,

I am following the guidelines on setting up permissions on our file server. At the moment we are still using Share permissions, which is proving to be a nightmare to manage.

I have created two groups:

1. Blotter Read Only - Domain Local
2. Blotter RO Members - Global Group

I have added a user to the Blotter RO Members group and have made this a member of the Blotter Read Only group.

However when I now go to apply permissions to the folder and try to add the local group - Blotter Read Only, the local group cannot be "seen" and it adds in the Global Group - Blotter RO Members.

What am i doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Matt
