  • nice video… helped me in another issue

    i have multiple folders mapped to each user as \serverFOLDER$%username%, right? \serverFOLDER$ points to "C:share". all the users have access to their respective folders and they are in the G_USERS group, ok?
    ONE USER only must have full access to FOLDER$, while the others cant… this user, named john, is member of G_ADMINS group, shich should supposedly see all the folders inside the folder C:SHARE
    i have added the user John to the G_ADMINS group only, that's the only group he's in, set the folder permissions to this group, auditing and effective access, nothing… any help is appreciated.
