7.2.9 Troubleshooting NTFS Permission Problems
When you assign or modify NTFS permissions to files and folders, problems might arise. Troubleshooting
these problems is important to keep resources available to users.
TABLE 7.2: Troubleshooting Permission problems
Problem
Solution
A user cannot gain access to a file
or folder.
If the file or folder was copied, or if it was moved to
another NTFS volume, the permissions might have
changed.
Check the permissions that are assigned to the user
account and to groups of which the user is a member.
The user might not have permission or might be
denied access either individually or as a member of a
group.
You add a user account to a group
to give that user access to a file or
folder, but the user still cannot
gain access.
For access permissions to be updated to include the
new group to which you have added the user account,
the user must either log off and then log on again, or
close all network connections to the computer on
which the file or folder resides and then make new
connections.
A user with Full Control
permission to a folder deletes a file
in the folder, although that user
does not have permission to delete
the file itself. You want to stop the
user from being able to delete
more files.
You have to clear the special access permission—the
Delete Subfolders And Files check box—on the
folder to prevent users with Full Control of the folder
from being able to delete files in the folder.
