Hi Noah,

 

Unfortunately, it is not possible to 'hide' folders using NTFS permissions.

All you can do is grant and deny access on the folders. Users will still see the folders, but they won't be able to access those that they are not allowed to.

 

Regards,

 

Paul

Onderwerp: [ActiveDir] Hide Subfolders with NTFS Permissions

 

Hello all:

 

Management has requested a NTFS permissions structure that "hides" certain subfolders. Here's what I want to do:

 

Folder  ->  NTFS Permission by Group

\Management (share)    -> Managers

    \ Legal -> (inherited)

    \ HR -> (inherited)

    \ Sales -> Managers and Sales

    \ Finance -> Managers and Bookkeepers

 

For people in the Managers group, \Management maps as M: and they see and have access to all subfolders.

For Sales folks, \Management maps as M: but they only see and have access to \management\sales

For Bookkeepers, \Management maps as M: but they only see and have access to \management\Finance

 

Is this possible? Or practical? Does this violate some "best practices"?

 

Thanks.
