RE: [ActiveDir] Hide Subfolders with NTFS Permissions

[Perdue David J Contr InDyne/Enterprise IT]

You can.  You just have to deny them "list folder contents", and they can not see what's in the folder, that coupled with a denied read should take care of it. Personally, I'd create new shares for Sales and Finance and map those straight to M:.  Then map your Management to M: for your respective groups.   //SIGNED// ------------------------------------------------ David J.

Here’s what I want to do:   Folder  ->  NTFS Permission by Group \Management (share)    -> Managers     \ Legal -> (inherited)     \ HR -> (inherited)     \ Sales -> Managers and Sales     \ Finance -> Managers and Bookkeepers   For people in the Managers group, \Management maps as M: and they see and have access to all subfolders. For Sales folks, \Management maps as M: but they only see and have access to \management\sales For Bookkeepers, \Management maps as M: but they only see and have access to \management\Finance   Is this possible? Or practical? Does this violate some “best practices”?   Thanks.   -- nme
