XP Pro - Shared Folder Access

Hey Experts,

I'm working with a peer-to-peer network. I have a system that is a file server running XP Pro. I am trying to reduce the mistakenly deleted/moved file and folder issues.

I have been playing with the Share Properties ->Advanced Security Settings and cant seem to be able to get the right results. I cant seem to deny delete/move but allow file/folder renaming.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin

If you want to allow renaming or moving, but still keep your files in case of a deletion - use protection of your recycle bin.

Example for such protection is Norton Antivirus Professional - it protects the Recycle Bin and even if u use Shift Delete you can still easily return the files.

Bytware also have a nice protection software for your Recycle Bin:
