How do you set permissions on multiple exchange public folders? I'm running SBS 2003 with Exchange SP2. <br />
<br />
My client has main folders named for the year with sub folders for each job number. It looks something like this:<br />
<br />
2005<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;0501<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;0502<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;0503<br />
2006<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;0601<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;0602<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;0603<br />
2007<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;0701<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;0702<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;etc. <br />
<br />
The job subfolders number easily 200 in each year main folder. I'm trying to set the same permissions on all the folders... a few folks have full rights and everyone else has limited rights. I try to set permissions on the main folders (2005, 2006, and 2007) hoping that the sub-folders will inherit the permission changes, but this doesn't happen. I can't seem to highlight more than one folder either. Is there a way I can define permissions for multiple folders?<br />
<br />
This problem stems from this client loosing his exchange server from an OS crash, so he bought a new server. I extracted the data from the old databases and loaded them up on the public folders on the new server. Now all the permissions need work. &nbsp; &nbsp;
