creating folder in sysvol and getting denied

Im domain admin and im trying to create a policy definition folder under the sysvol folder in my domain but its giving me access denied. What can I do to fix this? I should have all the rights needed.

Im using 2008 server.

It looks like only the system has full control over folder.

Have you tried running Windows Explorer as Administrator?

I just did. Still gets access denied. Im assuming the issue is that only the system has full control but I dont want to mess with any permissions unless im sure since this is a production server.

For more info, im just trying to follow directions in link:

So I went to the c:\windows\sysvol\domain\policies folder on my pdc and created the folder there and gave full permissions to administrator. The folder shows up but I still get access denied when I try to add files going to \\domain\sysvol from another machine but I can go back to pdc and edit fine.

on the share level you only have READ permissions for sysvol
