Hi.

I'm trying to figure out how to set up the following...i want to create a
standard profile, which will automatically create a users home drive and
profile path, but then only have that user and no one else permssisions on
to their profile and home drive.

I can't figure out what permisions i need to set on the home and profile
folders.

In AD users and computers i have setup the profile path and home path as
follows:

\\server\profiles$\%username%
\\server\home$\%username%

This creates the folders with the users having full permisiosns, but they
are also inheriting the parent folders permissions.

I can't seem to figure out a way to allow the administrator to create the
folder without the permsisions then being inherrited.

I don't want to have to remove / add permisisions mannauly once the user
folder is created.

Thanks.
Denis

Denis,

Create a user named "XYZ" using your profile paths and home paths. After
doing so, set the desired permissions.

Now for new users, copy/paste "XYZ" account and rename.
