We have a big volume on a WIN2K8 server and we need to grand a group right to see permission ONLY but not allowing it to open any files inside of any subfolder. &nbsp;We plan to grant &quot;Traverse Folder/Execute Files&quot; and &quot;List Folder/Read Data&quot;. &nbsp;Please let us know if this is not correct.<br />
<br />
We have also realized there are a lot of folder in this big volume which &quot;Include inheritable permission from this object's parent&quot; is unchecked. &nbsp;If this is the case, granting the right in the above will not flow into these folders, right? &nbsp;If yes, is there any work around?<br />
<br />
Please advise.<br />
<br />
Thanks.
