Setting Permissions to Shared Resources (Cont...)

Click on the image to zoom

The two permissions are:

  1. Share and NTFS.

NTFS permissions are an attribute of the folder or file for which they are configured. The NTFS permissions include both standard and special levels of settings. The standard settings are combinations of the special permissions, making the configuration more efficient and easier to establish. These permissions include the following:

  • Full Control

  • Modify

  • Read & Execute

  • List Folder Contents

  • Read

  • Write

There are 14 special permissions for folders, which include detailed control over creating, modifying, reading, and deleting subfolders and files contained within the folder where the permissions are established.

  • Share permissions are only associated with the folder that is being shared. For example, if there are 5 subfolders below the folder that is shared, only the initial shared folder can have share permissions configured on it. NTFS permissions can be established on every file and folder within the data storage structure, even if a folder is not shared.

  • The share permissions only provide Full Control, Change, and Read. There are no special permissions available for share permissions, so the standard permissions are as granular as you can go for this set of access control.

  • The share permissions are not part of the folder or file. So when the share name is changed, the folder is moved, or the folder is backed up, the share permissions are not included. This makes for a fragile control of the share permissions if the folder is modified.
