RE: share permissions

I'd recommend a basic share permission, along with a more restrictive NTFS permission. Allows you to keep the number of 
shares low. Like a single Users share, with each user having an NTFS restricted directory within it.



In addition:
Create a group for each directory that has its own share permissions. This allows for faster addition and subtraction 
(as you add the user to the group, rather than to the files' permissions), and avoids orphaned permissions, when you 
delete a user.

Subject: share permissions

Are then any best practices for setting permissions on shared folders?
 We have a discussion on whether we should be setting the access on the share itself or controlling it more at the NTFS 
level.  I lean more to setting permissions on the share and at the NTFS level.
Thoughts?
