■ Share Data\Customer Service as CustServ. Assign the Change permission to the Customer
Service group.
■ Share Data\Public as Public. Assign the Change permission to the Users built-in group.
■ Share Applications as Apps. Assign the Read permission to the Users built-in group and the Full
Control permission to the Administrators built-in group.
■ Share Project Management as ProjMan. Assign the Change permission to the Managers group
and the Full Control permission to the Administrators built-in group.
■ Share Database\Customers as CustDB. Assign the Change permission to the CustomerDBFull
group, the Read permission to the CustomerDBRead group, and the Full Control permission to
the Administrators built-in group.
■ Share Users as Users. Create a folder for every employee below this folder. Assign the Full Control
permission to each employee for his or her own folder. Preferably, have Windows XP Professional
create the folder and assign permission automatically when you create each user
account
Troubleshooting Lab
Why can Sandra open the file but cannot save it in the shared folder? How would you
solve the problem?
Sandra has the effective NTFS permissions necessary to open and save the file. The Sales
group has the Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, and Read permissions. The Sales Managers
group has these permissions plus the Modify and Write permissions. To determine effective
NTFS permissions, combine permissions from all sources.
For shared folder permissions, both the Sales and Sales Managers groups have only the Read
permission. Because you choose the most restrictive permission when combining NTFS and
shared folder permissions, Sandra ends up being able to read—but not change—files in the
Brochures folder. To solve this problem, you should select the Change check box in the Allow
column of the Permissions for Sales Managers list (see Figure 9-12).
