RE: Limit a VPN user to a specific area of the filestore



Hi Kev,

Thank you for posting in SBS newsgroup.

To avoid the VPN users accessing to other shared folders, you can actually
to create a security group and then remove the group from NTFS Permissions
and deny the group's access in Share Permission to the folders which you do
not want to let them access.

If you have updated SBS to SBS SP1, you can use ABE to increase folder
level security. To get detailed information, please refer to the following
document:

Windows Server 2003 Access-based Enumeration

Hope the information help and I look forward to your reply.

Best regards,

| Hi,
|
| I am setting up VPN access to a trusted consultant.
|
| I have set up a share in the file store, below which are the folders I
| only want to allow access to. I have set up a security group added
| the user and only given share level permissions to this group.
|
| I have set up a logon script for the user, which maps a drive to the
| share.
|
| What I want to achieve is:
|
| 1. Only allow access to this one share and the folders beneath it
| 2. Ensure that using the net commands does not allow enumeration of
| any other share, and in any event the user is always denied a
| connection to any other share
|
| Will just making this user a member of the security group I created
| plus mobile users, and remoiving all other group memberships solve the
| problem?
|
| Thanks
|
