■ You can apply NTFS permissions to files and subfolders in the shared folder. You
can apply different NTFS permissions to each file and subfolder contained in a
shared folder.
■ In addition to shared folder permissions, users must have NTFS permissions for
the files and subfolders contained in shared folders to access those files and subfolders.
This is in contrast to FAT volumes, in which permissions for a shared
folder are the only permissions protecting files and subfolders in the shared folder.
■ When you combine shared folder permissions and NTFS permissions, the more
restrictive permission is always the overriding permission.
In Figure 9-8, the Users group has the shared folder Full Control permission for the
Public folder and the NTFS Read permission for FileA. The Everyone group’s effective
permission for FileA is the more restrictive Read permission. The effective permission
for FileB is Full Control because both the shared folder permission and the NTFS permission
allow this level of access.

Apply NTFS permissions to files and subfolders.
The most restrictive permission is the effective permission.
Figure 9-9 shows examples of shared folders on NTFS volumes. These shared folders
contain subfolders that have also been assigned NTFS permissions. Determine a user’s
effective permissions for each example.
