ACL = Access control list.
It's really look like you applied rights on the files belonging to users,
not to group.
When you have made the copy, the rights are not duplicate.
So what I would check here :
- Pick up one the files you can't open, right-click / properties, go to
Security tab, check who can do what.
If I'm right :
Create security group within AD
Add your user into this group
Assign the proper rights on the files to this group

Sorry what's an ACL? (I'm new to using 'proper' servers,
previously we had a big peer to peer network going on)
I had to copy the files / folders from a different PC to
the new server, I'll double check particular files later
(and also we never had any permissions on particular
files previously), but I don't think it's down to them
since this one account doesn't get read only errors but
any accounts I make from this account do! (and
considering the working account was a copy of another
account that gets read only errors I'm totally baffled.)
One thing has just sprung to mind, I think I was logged
in using the maxines account when I copied the files, but
I can't think that would have made a difference? Could
it?
Cheers
Darren
