Server Folder Permissions
I need step by step instructions for setting up folder permissions on our server (MS Exchange 2007)
I have a file on our server called Technology that houses all of our important info such as how to's, passwords, contracts, renewals, etc. Only 3 employees should have access to this folder and all its files. So that I don't have to password protect each file, how do I allow only these three users to access it in turn locking the rest of the employees out of it.

I'm sorry but I don't know what that means.
create a shared folder, change the shared permission to full permission to the 3 users.
and edit the NTFS permission, click securtiy -->advanced -> uncheck inherited.
remove all users within the permission and add only that 3 users to have either full control or whatever permisison you want to have.

Hi mltardif,
You have to clarify this. You say you are using MS Exchange 2007. Do you need to setup this folder in your Exchange structure (hence a "Public Folder") or do you just want a filesystem folder (as in directory) on your server. If the latter MS Exchange is not your OS, it'll be probably Windows 2008 or 2011 (SBS)
Both are different things......

Do you use public folder, this is it?
