Not sure about domain environment, but here is the info for workgroups. This might be the case in a system connected to a domain also, unless the administrator has modified the default Permissions:
Standard Users have the following Permissions:
1. Read & Execute
2. List Folder Contents
3. Read
And the following Special Permissions:
1. Create Files / Write Data
2. Create Folders / Append Data
3. Write Attributes
4. Write Extended Attributes

I want to be able to write to a subfolder I create in that directory. Will
all users be able to write to this folder even if they are not
administrators?
Is situation different in workgroup as opposed to domain?
