Assumption: NTFS partition
I usually use the security (key) button on WINFILE to modify file
permissions.
I would start at the top level that will be shared and set the
file permissions to administrators:full control and you:full control
with no others specified. Propagate this down all subdirectories.
Then I would select the individual subdirectories that will be made
readable to the world and set the file permissions to add access for
everyone:read. Propagate this down those subdirectories.
The top level directory that holds some world readable directories will
probably have to have its permissions changed to add everyone:list. Do
not propagate this down the subdirectories.
Finally, I would modify the SHARE permissions to administrators:full
control, you:full control, everyone:read.
Hope this does the trick and does not leave a security hole. I have
never had formal NT training. ;-) If I have anything incorrect,
someone will surely correct me and I will have learned something by
this exercise.
Cheers,
/Bill
