We had added files from a network drive to SharePoint 2010 for federated 
searching. It was working fine. Too fine, in fact, as some stuff was appearing 
there than shouldn't have been, and we were asked to shut it down for a bit of 
housekeeping.



We turned off the results display by going into Search Service Application: 
Scope Properties and Rules, and modifying a rule "ContentSource = File Shares" 
to "ContentSource <> File Shares"



This worked fine. Items from file shares disappeared from search results, but 
the crawling and indexing is still going on.



A few days ago we were asked to switch it back on again, so we reversed the 
change above. Now, when I search SharePoint, I see items from file shares in 
the search results, but most other users do not.



So far as I can tell, it looks like SharePoint Admins can see these files and 
Non-Admins can't.



Why is this happening? How do we get things back to where they were before?



We've verified that items that appear in our search results are accessible to 
non-admin users if we email links to them. This is not a security trimming 
issue.
