Re: deny access to all but 1 folder

Andy, I've got the feeling that we have a misunderstanding going
on, because with the default NTFS permissions on the C: drive, and
normal user rights, this should be impossible.

When I look at the secuirty settings on my C:\Windows\system32
folder, it says:

Authenticated Users : Read + Execute
Server Operators : Modify
Administrators, CREATOR OWNER, SYSTEM : Full Control

So no way can a normal user delete anything under system32.
How are your permissions on that folder?

And you say: "the user can delete anything they want in
system32 or any other folder on the PC"
Is "PC" a typo? Aren't we talking about a Windows 2003 Terminal
Server?

I understand what you mean about hiding etc. but in response to
:

Again: what is your problem with these users having the default
NTFS permissions on c:\windows\system32\?

I tried this and the user can delete anything they want in
system32 or any other folder on the PC, they might as well have
admin rights.

It looks like the only option is to configure security on every
top level folder in drive C, which isn;t the end of the world.

Thanks
Andy
