I have a drive on a server called "filestore" This has a folder called "users"
in here, theres is a "users" folder. In there are folders such as - jsmith, jblogs, abrown - which correspond to usernames of our active directory. When a user logs on, the H: drive is mapped to their above mentioned folder - for example //filestore/users/jsmith
I am trying to make one of these folders available offline in Windows XP.
when i do so, i get an access is denied error. according to this - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/275461 i need to make the root folder have read access to the users.
This means, however, all the users will be able to get in all the folders (if they browse to //filestore/users/)
How can I still achieve offline files for that particular users "h:" drive, and still have the other folders secured?
