Re: Setting correct NTFS permissions on Home Folders

Maybe I'm confused, but, I thought I did NOT want to make them the OWNER,
as, that automatically gives them FULL rights?

While I originally did want to make all users OWNERS of their Home Folders,
then we ran into the problem where you cannot restrict an OWNER, so, they
could actually remove or change rights and break inheritance, and all that.

Thanks.
