Windows Share permissons vs NTFS permissions
I am setting up a remote virtual directory. The share has it's own permissions and I added all the users I want to access the share through the share permissons. The NTFS folder on the PC also has a security permissions.
To access the share does the NTFS folder and the Share permission folder have to have the same users? It seems they do not but I was not sure. I thought the NTFS security controlled the local access to the PC while the share permissions control the access through the network. Can someone clarify for me to be sure I got this correct?
