RE: Win NT Permission question ?

[Prasanna M <PrasannaM () catsglobal co in>]

user1 & user2 are they admins? or normal users?

your file would be safe only if users 1&2 dont know how to tinker with win
nt much.
if they do kno their way around win nt, then ur data isnt safe.

basically if someone has ownership access to the parent folder, then they
can definitely access the subfolders, no matter wat permissions you set.


hth,

Subject: Win NT Permission question ?

Hi All,

   Just want to check with u guys here how does these
Win NT 
Permission works.My admin had setup a directory with
the following 
permission :-

C:\detail\  was own by user1 and had Full Control 
(All) (All)
                  user2 had Full Control (All) (All)
                  user3 had Full Control (All) (All)

C:\detail\data\  was own by user2  and had Full
Control (All) (All)
                        user1 had no access
                        user3 had add & read (rwx)
(rwx)

C:\detail\data\info\ was own by user3 and had Full
Control (All) (All)
                                user1 had no access
                                 user2 had no access

I'm user3 and I just want to know can user1 & user2
delete my file ? 
Can user2 delete the info folder ? If I create a
folder in info 
directory eg. C:\detail\data\info\secret , so can
user1 & user2 
delete it and also the file inside the secret folder ?
I'm not a 
admin and my admin sucks ? If I want to secure my info
folder

All help r welcome.

Cheers
