Help ! attrib command not resetting read only in 2003

[hal]

Just upgraded to 2003 for our data server, and all folders showed read
only and no one can create folders or files. Found this article:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326549/en-us

but I am doing something wrong with syntax, and even though using /s
/d switches it does not seem to be traversing and changing attributes
on my folders.

anyone know what I am missing or correct syntax to do this?

thanks

Hal

The read-only attribute for a folder is typically ignored by Windows. Every
single folder on my systems have the read-only attribute set.
