NTFS permission question
I have a few desktops in office that are running XP Pro with a FAT32
partition. I recently configured the home folder resides in server with NTFS permission and get rid of the "everyone" group. Will those XP desktops with FAT32 partition have any problem accessing or writing data to the home folders? FAT32 format doesn't support NTFS permission, so I guess whatever NTFS permission I set on the home folders will not apply to FAT32 formatted machines and they will have "Full Control"? Thanks Billy Bay |

Re: NTFS permission question
The fact that the workstations are running FAT32 has nothing to do with what
NTFS permissions you set on the server. If you NTFS permission the directories on the server this will affect all users accessing the shares and directories, no matter what operating system they use or what file system that OS uses.

NTFS permission question
The fact that you are using FAT32 on the workstations does
not have any effect on the server running NTFS. Richard Hensley, MCSE,MCDBA,CCIE,MCT >-----Original Message----- >I have a few desktops in office that are running XP Pro with a FAT32 >partition.
