Cannot delete files

[Ulfius]

have a windows 2000 server runnning FrontPage extensions and the users
are sometimes reporting that they cannot delete their files. They are
assigned the "Advanced Author" role which gives them the ability to
"Author Pages - User can create, edit, or "delete" HTML pages and
directories."

However, when I open the properties -security tab for the folder, the
permissions box is showing that Advanced Authors are only allowed to
"list folder contents" then when I click the Advanced button on the
bottom right corner and view the permissions tab the users account is
showing that the permission columns allows them to modify.

Furthermore, if I click the View/Edit button it shows that the
permissions to Delete subfolders and Files is not selected in the allow
column.

Any ideas on how to fix this problem so users can delete their files
with the Advanced Author role?

Thanks.

In the FP SE admin pages you want to select the root web and Manage Roles under Users and Roles
