I just ran an installation of 2008 on a file server running 2000. It consists of a C: drive with all OS and program files and an F: drive that contains all the client and user folders. <br />
<br />
I must have messed up somewhere assigning folder rights and want to start fresh. <br />
<br />
the folders on the F: contain two sets of important folders.<br />
<br />
One is the CLIENTS folder which everyone in the company should have full rights too.<br />
<br />
#2 is the USERS folder which contains all the user's files. I want this folder to only allow the individual user to have access to his folder, except the two owners of the company should have access to all files on folders.<br />
<br />
what is the correct configuration for doing this?<br />
<br />
thanks in advance.
