Read Only Access To Single Directory On SBS 2008 Share
We have a user that needs read only access to a single directory on an SBS 2008 share. ie. "\\sbs2008\share\readonlyd
Most users have a mapped O:\ drive for \\sbs2008\share while this user has O:\ mapped to \\sbs2008\share\readonlydi
The mapping is fine, shows up, and is to the correct location. All other users have no issues, however the read only user receives access denied when trying to access their mapped O:\ drive.
This user is a member of a security group with Read & execute, List folder contents, and Read permission over the read only directory. They also have Traverse folder permissions over \\sbs2008\share.
It feels as though a permission over the share may be missing but I do not want to allow any access to the share.

What is there Share permissions?
I Generally make ALL shares fairly loose in terms of restrictions. NTFS will ALWAYS overide the share permissions.

dariusg, the share permission is Traverse folder only.
NTFS will not always override share permissions, the most restrictive will apply
put change for users on the share and read/execute for the user on the required folder
put change for users on the share and read/execute for the user on the required folder
