    Hi,

    I know Frontpage Extensions keeps track of permissions, and as of 2002 does
    not allow admins to keep track of permissions. However my problem is that
    Frontpage automatically modifes permissions for Website root folders, that do
    not have fonrpage enabled.

    For instance we have
    C:\Webs (not a web root)
    C:\Webs\FPa (webroot for site a)
    C:\Webs\FPb (webroot for site b)
    C:\Webs\c (webroot for site c, no FP SE enabled)

    the problem is that Fronpage extensions adds Interactive and Network
    permissions at the C:\Webs level, thus changing permissions for Site C, which
    should not need it. This is a major problem because of all the restricted
    sites we have on site C, and Interactive and Netowrk give read access to
    everyone that has an account.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
    Badri
