[QUOTE="lager100, post: 343500, member: 28216"] Permission Translation The set of permissions that are available for Windows 2000 users differs from the set of permissions that are available for the Macintosh. Services for Macintosh automatically translates permissions so that permissions are enforced for both Windows 2000 and Macintosh users. The Windows 2000 Server administrator account always has Modify permissions on Services for Macintosh volumes. Permissions that are set in Macintosh networks behave differently from those that are set in Windows 2000 Server networks, including Macintosh-style permissions. [COLOR="Red"]From the Macintosh computer, a right that is assigned to everyone overrides more restrictive rights that are set on the owner or a group. From Windows 2000, permissions that are assigned to everyone do not override permissions that are set on the owner or group. [/COLOR] The built-in Everyone group on a Macintosh client only understands limited permissions. If you want to deny the Everyone group from a Macintosh client share, you must set the permissions on Windows 2000 by not explicitly setting deny but matching the no-access setting that Macintosh uses. To do this, set the Advanced Security properties to allow Read Attributes and Read Permissions for the Everyone group. On the Macintosh side you see a belt around the folder for those users who do not have explicit rights. If you do not do this, the Everyone group receives Read and Execute, List Folders and Read, plus any additional settings that you have checked for the Everyone group.
