On windows 2000 (w2k), I want to let "everyone" see a directory, but then I want to hide visability of folders below that directory if your aren't a member of the group. Below are my current cacls results:
Q:\>cacls test1 /t
Q:\test1 BANKS\Domain Admins:(OI)(CI)F
Everyone:(CI)R

Q:\test1\patwin BANKS\Domain Admins:(OI)(CI)F
BANKS\PATWIN:(OI)(CI)R

Q:\test1\tst2 BANKS\Domain Admins:(OI)(CI)F

I want "patwin" to only see the directy patwin and not tst2. However, at this point tst2 shows up in the list. Granted, patwin can't access tst2 but I don't even want him to see it. I've tried messing with advanced options: "Travers Folder/Execute File", and "List Folder/Read Data", but to no avail. Is it possible to have folders show and not show based on permissions, or am I barking up the wrong tree?
