Re: Stuck on Permissions

Can you assign them home directories in ADUC? Just create a share on the
server, higlight all of the users in AD and modify their User Home
Directory. AD will create all of the individual home folders for you.

Hello,

I provide IT/Network support for a K-8 private school. The school
uses a Windows 2003 server and Windows XP clients. On the server is a
shared folder that is used by workstations in a computer lab for
students to save their school assignments. These lab computers all
log in with the same user account.

We've recently run into the issue where students have been deleting
the assignments of other students or moving files and folders to
another folder, and I spend a significant amount of time undeleting
files, and moving the files around means the instructors are spending
additional time trying to find the missing files. In an attempt to
resolve this, I had set up an explicit delete deny for the lab account
to that folder.

Now we've run into another issue - the technology class has started
using Windows Movie Maker to produce short movies using pictures and
sound effects. Because of the delete deny, students have been unable
to save their work, forcing me to remove the delete deny.

So, I'm looking for a solution that would allow students to save movie
maker files to the network folder, while at the same time keeping them
from deleting and moving files on the server.
