This is a pretty odd problem, so maybe someone may have an idea why it might be happening. 1 share, and admin share. 1 local admin group (as per the norm), 3 domain groups, all admin groups. No normal user has access. Effective permissions on that share and subfolders say that a normal user has no rights. If I now map said share, a normal user has full control (as per effective permissions on that mapped share). The only way I can stop this happening is to remove the local admin group. This implies that a group ie the everyone groups is in that local admin group, which is not the case. I have setup a new share and tightened permissions and only added the local group, I have changed the share permissions to only allow auth users change rights. NTFS permissions are applied locally, where share permissions are applied when the drive is mapped. The more strict of the 2 overrides, so why does it look like the shared permissions are in control, yet the local admin groups is applying a less strict set of permissions. Perplexing...Any pointers or ideas would be glady received.
