So your saying that I am going to have to reset the permissions on 300 Gb worth of folders and files to add a new support group to my staff that doesn't have administrator access?

I need to add a new group to our shared file server to be able to change the security on folders. If I add the group to the top level and propigate the changes down i can change the permissions on all the folders that are allowed inherited permissions, however on any foler where this is removed, a personal folder for a user, I cannot see the security tab at all. Is there a GPO to hide the security tab or script that i can run to add the new group to every folder/file without removing exsiting permisssions?

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
