Conversation: Directory permissions black magic
Subject: Directory permissions black magic

I've been reviewing permissions in staff home directories on our file
server, and found something that I haven't been able to figure out.

Home directories are on h:, connected to \\fileserver\home\username

Permissions on that directory for each user are Full Control for
admins, Change for the user.

The weird part is that I am frequently seeing Full Control on
subdirectories - \\fileserver\home\username\project

How the heck is that happening? They are only writing/copying files
from their workstations.

Thoughts?

Kurt
