Hello All,

My users are getting an access denied message when trying to access folders on the network, I have checked the permissions and all seems to be fine, If I log directly onto the box itself as a user I am able to manage the folder? What gives? This is a windows 2000 server and win2k workstations. I the login script works fine, they can see and open the folders, but if they try to modify, delete or create they get the access denied message? Help!!!!!!!!!

Thanks in Advance for the input
 

Mcse63,

Have you checked both the SHARE and NTFS permissions?

The reason I ask is that SHARE permsission are only in effect when accessing the resource over the network. When logged into the machine Locally they will not apply. So if you have a conflict between SHARE and NTFS you would see this problem when accessing over the Network but not when accessing Locally.

Just a thought,

For Example: user Test logs into domain x..sript runs that sets up there user share and mapped drive. Test is given read access to the common folder and full control to the dev folder. When test tries to copy a text file to dev or open a project they get access denied. Viewing the contents are no problem, just utilizing them.
 
Did you set any DENY permissions? DENY that is inherited will override an ALLOW inherited from somewhere else. If the common folder has DENY-WRITE and the dev folder is a subdirectory of common, users may not be able to write into dev. Checking the DENY permission is not the same as un-checking the ALLOW permission.

Just taking a wild guess.
