The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problems with XP/2003 R2 NTFS File Permissions

Asked by JHMarshIII in Windows NT Networking, Windows Network Security

Tags: Windows XP, Windows 2003, ACL, DACL, File Permissions

After a permissions change by another Admin, suddenly a user can't access files on a shared folder on a Win2003R2 Standard server.  The error message the user gets in MS Word 2007 is Access Denied, contact your administrator.  Unfortunately that Admin and his knowledge left with him to his new job.

The user is a member of a Security Group (Providers) and Providers has write access, in fact other members in that same group are able to save changes.

The permissions on the Share are set to Everyone has Full Control.  More granular file level control is in place via the Security tab, with everything checked but Delete.

Even adding the User directly to the Share and to the Security Tab with everything but Full Control doesn't work.

I've even deleted the Share, rebooted, and rebuilt it.  To my dismay  I see that even after deleting the Share and rebooting, I still see that the same list of Permissions.  Like the share won't die or forget it's past ACLs.

How do I flush out what Permissions a user really has?  I've toyed with SomarSoft DumpSec and AccessChk.exe, as well as looking at the Effective Permissions Tool.  But ideally, I want to see it from the file's perspective.
