Hi all,
There is a setup at one of the sites that I work at that requires certain folders/files to have permissions based on the computer name...
The thing is, all users use the same username 'helpdesk' (business doesnt allow this to be changed) to log on to 8 different PCs. I need to set permissions on a network folder so as only one PC (that also logs in as 'helpdesk' by the way) can have full permission on a folder yet the remaining 7 PCs (again logged in as 'helpdesk') only read access.
I tried giving read access to the 'helpdesk' user and gave full access to the computer that is to have full control (via computer name) on the network folder.
The read access works fine but the computer that requires full access also only has read access (even though its computer name has full access permissions).
Is there a way to achieve this?
Thanks an advanced.
