please help: user login script to change folder perimission

[vlopaz]

Hi
please help on this issue

from win 2003 server: as an administrator I created a folder in the
server for a user and gave the user full control and ownership

from workstation: user could access the folder and create files , sub
folders, delete..etc
but cannot change the permission on the folder. why is that

basically I need to do the following:

in a user logon script and logoff script , I need to change the folder
permission. (not working)

when I run cacls command on the folder (in user contex), I get access
denied.


In summary: I need to create logs by users (by user logon script), and
restrict user from modifing these logs

for the folder itself or for a subfolder?
Did you also set the share permissions to Full Control for this user?

when I run cacls command on the folder (in user contex), I get access
denied.

If it is the folder itself, your user may not have enough permissions for
the parent folder of that shared folder to change the permissions of an
object in it (which you would not like usually). So try what happens, if
your user's script changes the permissions for a subfolder, instead for the
root of the share directly.
