Re: Strange permissions problem

I am not sure if this is what you are having, but some admins restrict
"Everyone" group or even remove it, presumably to enhance security. This
however leads to problems. See the following articles:

Also, are you cloning hard disks? This can lead to problems because 2
computers might share the same system identifier. You can view the SID by
using the following software:

To fix the problem, use the following:
