Okay, something just came up as a question... As the user who I want to have control, I am trying to manually set the permissions... and the "add" button is greyed out. Somehow this user doesn't have permissions.
But I don't see how she doesn't: She's a member of the Student Admins group, which has Full Control of the Share and the root of the share's folder... I'm going to try to set her manually as full access. Why wouldn't the Group propigate her permissions correctly? Arg! --Matt Ross _____ From: Matthew W.

Just checked that... Everyone had "Change", while Administrators had "Full Control". I just added the Student Admins to the list, and gave that group "Full Control" as well. So, I'm testing this with her account... I logged off, logged back in as her, tried to create an account again... Same thing: Can create the accout. Try to set the profile and home path and it complains it can't create the home folder (although it does) and does not set permissions correctly on the folder. *stumped* --Matt Ross _____ From: Jon Harris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: NT System Admin Issues [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri, 25 Jan 2008 09:15:39 -0800 Subject: Re: Active Directory User and Home Folder creation problems. Have you checked the Share rights? Jon On Jan 25, 2008 12:07 PM, Matthew W. Ross <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Greetings, List. I have delegated control of a part of Active Directory to a user in my School District. She is trying to create students as they come in. When she creates the student, she enters user's name, username and password and finishes making the account. Account creates successfully. Then she edits the user to set the Profile and Home Folder path. After editing the path, she hits "OK" and the following error appears: The \\Servername\Share\username home folder was not created because you do not have create access on the server. The user account has been updated with the new home folder value but you must create the directory manually after obtaining the required access rights. What's interesting is that she _does_ have create access on the server. She is part of a StudentAdmins group, which has full control of the root of the share. Also, The user's folder was created by the Active Directory Users and Computers plugin, but the permissions are not set correctly. Any idea on why this doesn't just work as expected? --Matt Ross ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
