Is this a domain? If so, the Domain Computers group is the one you want. Granting it Modify will do the trick, but you can be more granular if desired.
DAMIEN SOLODOW Systems Engineer 317.447.6033 (office) 317.447.6014 (fax) HARRISON COLLEGE From: Jim Dandy [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2012 2:11 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Simple File Permissions Question I have a logon script that creates a file in a shared folder. The owner of that file is the computer that made it. The way it's set up now, if another computer tries to overwrite that file, it can't. I have to go in and manually delete the file to allow another computer to recreate it. What permissions should I give the folder so that other computers can overwrite files created in that directory? There is the Users group. Is there a similar group that defines just computers? Does the Users group include computers? Thanks for your help.
