Re: SHAREPOINT AND RWW ISSUES



Thanks for the reply.

You are correct I am using WSS 2.0 right out the box.

Is there a way to go to each domain user account, and remove them form the
web designer group, or reset their permissions.

I am 100% sure that I have deleted them from companyweb. IE all that remains
is reader, and all individual users have been deleted. It still seems
however that when I created the user accounts they still have permissions to
access the company web portal. So I deleted everyone, and anyone local can
get on, and if you connect remotely via RWW with domain logon, you can still
access companywebt. Even for someone who is in the reader group, and not a
user of the sight, but a domain user....

Since nothing really has been added to the "intranet", how hard would it be
to upgrade to 3.0....

Cheers,

Laurin

From the description of your issue, I guess you are using SharePoint 2.0
which comes pre-installed in SBS2K3

In WSS 2.0, when you create a Domain User account, the server adds it to
SharePoint with 'Web Designer' rights. One of the permissions for the
'Web Designer' groups is the 'Delete Items'. That's the reason for your
problem. In order to see that, go to 'Site Settings' / 'Manage Users' and
you'll see your users belonging to the 'Web Designer' group. If you want
to see or change these permissions for this group, go to 'Site Settings' /
'Go to Site Administration' / 'Manage Site Groups', click on 'Web
Designer and then select 'Edit Site Group Permissions'

There you can change the different pemissions you want that group to have.

If you don't like this kind of behavior and you want to explicitly add
uses to your Intranet, then you have to install WSS 3.0. In SharePoint
Services 3.0, the users are not added automatically. The Site
Administrator has to add them.

Hope that helps

Hello,

I will be vauge for now, but if any requires additional info please ask.

Our company is trying to setup their internal website through sharepoint
services on a sbs2003 box. I noticed however, when users are on the
internal
website, they can do whatever they want, regardless of the permissions.
For
instance I logged in as the domain user in the "reader" group, and he
could
view all posts, delete posts, modify content, delete users, basically hes
profile has full administration rights. I went to the users and groups,
and
removed everyone but reader, and he can still access the sight. So i
deleted
his membership to the "reader " group and deleted his user profile, but
he is
able to still log on and view all links, items, lists, etc.

I would like it so, only users who are invited can join, and they can
only
read items. I would also like to have private folders, where nobody but
admins ( seperate folder for accountants ) can access, but right now I am
very hesitant about the group membership, and user permission.....

On a seperate note, the email invites are not going out, because it
failed
to contact the exchange server. I have set up a smart host, and confirmed
that email's are reaching outside domains when sending through OWA, or
exchange.. Everything is running on this one box ( EXCHANGE, COMPANYWEB,
RWW )

I have tried refering to the exchange server by ip (192.168.1.101) by UNC
(\\SERVER & SERVER) and by local domain name, (server.FQDN.local).


Cheers,

Laurin
