User cannot acess public folder on 2003 domain

Asked by shane0991 in Windows Network Security Questions, Windows 2003 Server, SBS Small Business Server

Tags: Microsoft, Server 2003

I am a little new to this but what seemed straight forward is not working.

We have a Windows 2003 server that has a public folder for the organizations in our company:
It was open to everyone.  I was asked to re-organize it to some thing like this.

Public folder with sub directories"
HR
Accounting
Operations
etc.

I then created security groups and placed users in them that are allowed acess to the sub directories.  I shared the public folder.  Then in security on the sub folders added the groups.  For some reason no one can acess anything unless I place them in security for the top level folder.

Thanks
