  3. NTFS Permissions Confusion


    I clearly do not understand NTFS permissions. Can someone please help eliminate my confusion.

    When I am signed in to RAVEN\Clayton (local, standard account) and I check Properties->Security on D:\Users\Clayton\Utilities, I find:


    Confusion in windows NTFS permission 30157d1485954121t-ntfs-permissions-confusion-q1.png


    To me this indicates that SYSTEM, RAVEN\Administrators, and RAVEN\Clayton (Owner) have Full Control. Clicking Advanced and looking at Effective Access for RAVEN\Admin (local, administrators account):


    Confusion in windows NTFS permission 30158d1485954121t-ntfs-permissions-confusion-q2.png


    To me this indicates RAVEN\Admin (a member of RAVEN\Administrators) has Full Control on D:\Users\Clayton\Utilities. All this makes sense to me.

    However, if I sign in as RAVEN\Admin and click on D:\Users\Clayton, I find:


    Confusion in windows NTFS permission 30159d1485954121t-ntfs-permissions-confusion-q3.png


    If I try to look at Properties on D:\Users\Clayton, I get:


    Confusion in windows NTFS permission 30160d1485954121t-ntfs-permissions-confusion-q4.png


    I simply do not understand this. If RAVEN\Administrators has Full Control on D:\Users\Clayton and all its children, then why does RAVEN\Admin (a member of RAVEN\Administrators) get permission errors? Makes zero sense to me.

  4. Confusion in windows NTFS permission

    xp ntfs permissions erased - help!

    NEVER, ever, remove FULL CONTROL permissions in the Access Control Lists/rights priveleges from:

    • Administators Group
    • YOUR local Administrator User
    • SYSTEM
    on NTFS rights on your disks (via Explorer.exe rightclick properties menu, security tab) that use that filesystem, OR in the REGISTRY either, via rightclick on HIVES/KEYS permissions popup menu options...

    (Sure way to lock yourself out, period, & I have done it myself early on w/ NTFS filesystems &/or the Registry before... only way to learn sometimes, is making mistakes!)

    * Keep this in mind, those of you that start experimenting w/ security @ these 2 levels!

    APK

    P.S.=> Leaving them @ FULL POWER, in both areas, usually 9/10 times allows you to get back into your rig (logging on as your LOCAL ADMINISTRATOR USER, to fix it), & make alterations to rights/acl's as needed, to "get it right", eventually... especially when you're still learning/experimenting! apk
