Guest
I create a new user, make it a member of the Guests group and explicitly
remove it
from the Users group (so that the new user is a member of the Guests group
and no other group).
Strangely this new user has the "effective permissions" to "read & execute"
a file as if it was in the Users group. This is very odd behaviour.
My file has an ACL with "full control" ACEs for
SYSTEM, Administrators and CURRENT OWNER (Administrator), and a "read &
execute" ACE for the "Users" group (and no other ACEs).
Also if I log on as the new user in the Guests group I can read the file too.
What is going on?
