Trang 7! Creating Shared Folders
! Best Practices
When providing access to file resources on a computer running Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Server, you control who has access to resources and the nature of the access that they have To control access to files and folders, you assign NTFS file system permissions to user accounts and groups NTFS is
a file system designed for use with Windows 2000 and Windows NT operating systems It supports file system recovery, very large storage media, long file names, and other features NTFS permissions provide security for resources by controlling access to individual files and folders and by specifying which user can access files and folders and the kind of access that users can have
To provide network users with access to file resources, you put the resources in shared folders When a folder is shared, users can connect to the folder over the network and gain access to the files that it contains
Objectives
At the end of this module, you will be able to:
!"Describe the use of NTFS permissions to control access to files and folders
!"Describe how permissions apply to files and folders
!"Assign NTFS file and folder permissions to user accounts and groups
!"Describe the effect on NTFS file and folder permissions of copying and moving files and folders
!"Use shared folders to provide access to network file resources
!"Create shared folders
!"Describe the result of using NTFS permissions to control access to resources contained in shared folders
!"Troubleshoot problems accessing files and folders
!"Apply best practices for administering resources
In this module, we discuss
how to share and control
access to network resources
by using shared folders and
NTFS permissions
Trang 8To secure files and folders on NTFS partitions, you assign NTFS permissions for each user account and group that needs access to the resource NTFS is the Windows 2000 file system A file system defines the way in which files are named, stored, and organized A file system is used to format a partition A partition is a logical portion of a physical disk that functions as though it were a physically separate unit
If no permissions are assigned to a user or to a group of which the user is a member, the user cannot access the resource NTFS permissions provide security for resources by controlling user access to individual files and folders
and by specifying the level of user access
You use NTFS folder permissions to control access to folders You use NTFS file permissions to control access to files Because of the nature of files and folders, the permissions for files are different than the permissions for folders For example, you assign users permission to view the contents of a folder, which is a permission called List Folder Contents However, there is no comparable permission for a file
control the access of user
accounts and groups to
folders and individual files

NTFS permissions Prepare
students for the topic by
providing the following key

!"Administrators, the owners of files or folders, and users with Full Control permission can assign NTFS permissions to files and folders
!"You can assign NTFS permissions to individual user accounts and groups
A user can be a member of one or more groups, and each group can have different permissions Therefore, a user can have a number of permissions assigned to his or her user account and as a member of one or more groups
!"You can deny permission to a user account or group For example, if you deny Read permission for a file to a user account, or to a group of which the user is a member, the user cannot read the file
When assigning permissions to files, you assign permissions to a folder and place files with the same security requirements in that folder You can also specify permissions on individual files within a folder if you want a user or group to have access only to a particular file
NTFS permissions are only available on NTFS partitions NTFS permissions are not available on partitions that are formatted with the file allocation table (FAT) or FAT32 file systems

Trang 12! Class Discussion: Applying NTFS Permissions
There are several ways that users can obtain permissions to gain access to files and folders You assign permissions directly to individual users to access files and folders Permissions that you assign to groups apply to user accounts that have been added to the groups Subfolders and files in the folder may inherit permissions that you assign to a user or group for a folder
You can assign permissions to a user by assigning permissions to the individual user account or to each group of which the user is a member In this way, users may have multiple permissions to the same resource There are rules and priorities that are associated with how NTFS assigns and combines multiple permissions
When you assign permissions for a folder, the subfolders and files contained in the folder inherit the permissions by default It is important to understand how subfolders and files inherit NTFS permissions from parent folders so that you can use inheritance to propagate permissions to files and folders
When you create files and folders, and when you format a partition with NTFS, Windows 2000 automatically assigns default NTFS permissions
Examples will help you to understand how NTFS applies permissions to files and folders through the combination of multiple permissions and inheritance
There are rules associated
with how NTFS applies
permissions to files and
folders
Delivery Tip
This is an overview of
applying NTFS permissions
Prepare students for the
topic by providing the
following key points of
files, folders, and partitions
when you create them
Examples will help you to
understand how
permissions combine and
are inherited
Trang 13Multiple NTFS Permissions
! File Permissions Override Folder Permissions
! Deny Overrides Other Permissions
NTFS Partition C:\
File1
File2
FolderA GroupB
GroupA Deny Write to File2
Write
Read / Write
User1 Read
Read / Write
Read
You assign NTFS permissions to individual user accounts and to groups By
assigning permissions to a user and to a group of which the user is a member,
you assign multiple permissions
Permissions Are Cumulative
A user’s effective permissions for a resource are the combination of the NTFS permissions that you assign to the individual user account and to all of the groups to which the user belongs If a user has Read permission for a folder and
is a member of a group with Write permission for the same folder, the user has both Read and Write permissions for that folder
NTFS File Permissions Override NTFS Folder Permissions
NTFS file permissions take priority over folder permissions A user with Change permission to a file will be able to make changes to the file even if he
or she has only Read permission to the folder containing the file
Deny Overrides Other Permissions
You can deny permission to a user account or group for a specific file Even if a user has access permission to the file or folder as a member of a group, denying permission to the user blocks any other permission that the user has Avoid denying permission It is preferable to structure groups and organize resources
in folders so that allowing permissions is sufficient
Example of Multiple Permissions
In the illustration, User1 has Read permission for FolderA and is a member of Group A and Group B Group B has Write permission for FolderA Group A has been denied Write permission for File2 User1 can read File2 but cannot write to File2 because User1 is a member of Group A, which has been denied Write permission for File 2
Demonstrate how multiple
permissions combine, how
file permissions take priority
over folder permissions, and
how Deny overrides other
permissions
Trang 14By default, permissions that you assign to a parent folder are inherited by and propagated to the subfolders and files that are contained in the parent folder However, you can prevent permissions inheritance You may want folders or files to have different permissions than their parent folder
Permissions Inheritance
Whatever permissions you assign to a parent folder also apply to subfolders and files that are contained within the parent folder When you assign NTFS permissions to give access to a folder, you assign permissions for the folder, for any existing files and subfolders, and for any new files and subfolders that are created in the folder
Controlling Permissions Inheritance
You can prevent subfolders and files from inheriting permissions that are assigned to that folder That is, the subfolders and files will not inherit permissions that are assigned to the parent folder containing them When you prevent permissions inheritance, you can either:
!"Copy inherited permissions from the parent folder, or
!"Remove the inherited permissions and retain only the permissions that were explicitly assigned
The folder at which you prevent permissions inheritance becomes the new parent folder, and the subfolders and files that are contained within it inherit the permissions assigned to it
Example of Permissions Inheritance
In the slide illustration, inheritance is prevented at FolderB FolderB will not inherit any changes that you make to the permissions of FolderA Any subfolders and files that are contained within FolderB will inherit the permissions that you assign
Slide Objective
To explain how NTFS
permissions are inherited
and how inheritance is
prevented
Lead-in
NTFS permissions are
inherited from the folder in
which they are created or
contained
Delivery Tip
Demonstrate how
permissions are inherited
and how to prevent
inheritance
Assign permissions and
show students how
permissions are propagated
from a folder to its
subfolders and files Also,
show how to add
permissions to a file or
folder that has inherited
permissions from a parent
folder
Trang 15Default NTFS Permissions
! NTFS Permissions Automatically Assigned
When you format a partition or create a file or folder, Windows 2000 automatically assigns default NTFS permissions
!"When you format a partition with NTFS, Windows automatically assigns the Full Control permission for the root folder to the Everyone group Folders and files that are created on the partition inherit this default permission To restrict access to authorized users, you should change the default permissions for folders that you create
!"When you create a new folder or file on an NTFS partition, the folder or file inherits the permissions of its parent folder
!"When you assign a user or group permission for a file or folder, the file or folder is selected, and the user or group is added to the file or folder When
a user or group is added to a folder, the NTFS permissions Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, and Read are assigned to the user account or group by default When a user or group is added to a file, the NTFS permissions Read
& Execute and Read are assigned to the user account or group by default
When Windows 2000 is installed on an NTFS partition, NTFS permissions are automatically assigned to some system folders System folders contain the Windows 2000 operating system files Do not modify any
permissions that Windows 2000 assigns to system files

2 The Users group has Read permission for Folder1 The Sales group has Write permission for Folder2 What permissions does User1 have for Doc2?
User1 has Read and Write permissions for Doc2, because User1 is a member of the Users group, which has Read permission to Folder1, and the Sales group, which has Write permission to Folder2 Doc2 inherits permissions from both Folder2 and Folder1
3 The Users group has Modify permission for Folder1 Doc2 should only be accessible to the Sales group, and only for reading What steps should you take to ensure that the Sales group has only Read permission for Doc2?
Disable permissions inheritance for Folder2 or Doc2 Remove permissions for Folder2 or Doc2 that Folder2 has inherited from Folder1 Assign only the Read permission to the Sales group for Folder2 or Doc2

! Guidelines for Assigning NTFS Permissions
! Setting NTFS Permissions
! Controlling Permissions Inheritance
When you assign NTFS permissions, you should follow certain guidelines to help you make the assignments in an effective way Administrators, users with Full Control permission, and owners of files or folders assign permissions to user accounts and groups for those files and folders Assign permissions to groups according to group and user needs To control the propagation of assigned permissions, you allow or prevent permissions inheritance from parent folders to subfolders and files that are contained in the parent folder
Slide Objective

according to user needs
Set permission inheritance
to allow or prevent
permissions from
propagating to files and
folders
Trang 18Guidelines for Assigning NTFS Permissions
Group Resources to Simplify Administration Assign Only the Permissions That Users Need Create Groups According to Resource Access Needs Assign Read & Execute Permissions for Application Folders
Assign Permissions Rather Than Deny Permissions Assign Appropriate Permissions to Users and File Owner for Public Data
Consider the following guidelines when you assign NTFS permissions:
!"To simplify administration, group files into application folders where commonly used applications are kept, data folders containing data files shared by multiple users, and home folders that contain each individual user’s files Centralize home folders and data folders on a separate partition This provides the following benefits:
• You assign permissions only to folders, not to individual files
• Backup is less complex, because there is no need to back up application files and all home and data folders are in one location
!"Create groups according to the access that the group members require for resources, and then assign the appropriate permissions to the groups Assign permissions to individual user accounts only when necessary
!"Allow users only the level of access that they require If a user only needs to read a file, assign the user, or group to which the user has been added, Read permission for the file
!"When you assign permissions for application folders, assign the Read & Execute permission to the Users and Administrators groups This prevents data and application files from being accidentally deleted or damaged by users or viruses
!"When you assign permissions for data folders, assign Read & Execute and Write permissions to the Users group and Full Control permission to Creator Owner This gives users the ability to read and modify documents that other users create, and the ability to read, modify, and delete the files and folders that they themselves create
!"Deny permissions only when it is essential to deny access to a specific user account or group
Trang 19Administrators, users with Full Control permission, and owners of files and folders (Creator Owner) can assign permissions to user accounts and groups When you assign or modify NTFS permissions for a file or a folder, you can either add or remove users or groups for the file or folder In addition, by selecting a user or group, you can modify the permissions for the user or group
On the Security tab of the Properties dialog box for the file or folder,
configure the options that the following table describes
Option Description Name Selects the user account or group for which you want to change
permissions or that you want to remove from the list
Permissions To allow a permission, select the Allow check box
To deny a permission, select the Deny check box
you use to select user accounts and groups to add to the Name list
Remove Removes the selected user account or group and the associated
permissions for the file or folder
assigns the Full Control
permission when you
create a file or folder or
when you format a partition
with NTFS
Delivery Tip
Demonstrate assigning
permissions to a folder
Then, demonstrate blocking
permissions inheritance for
a file that is contained in the
folder Finally, assign new
permissions to the file on
which you blocked
permissions inheritance
Trang 20Controlling Permissions Inheritance
Write
You are preventing any inheritable permissions from propagating to this object What do you want to do?
- To copy previously inherited permissions to this object, click Copy.
- To Remove the inherited permissions and keep only the permissions explicitly specified on this object, click Remove.
- To abort this operation, click Cancel.
Security
In general, you should allow Windows 2000 to propagate permissions from a parent folder to subfolders and files contained in the parent folder Permissions propagation simplifies the assignment of permissions for resources However, there are times when you may want to prevent inheritance so that permissions
do not propagate from a parent folder to subfolders and files
For example, you may need to keep all sales department files in one sales folder
to which everyone in the sales department has Write permission However, you need to limit access for a few files in the folder to Read To do so, you prevent inheritance so that the Write permission does not propagate to the files contained in the folder
By default, subfolders and files inherit permissions that you assign to their
parent folders This is indicated on the Security tab in the Properties dialog box when the Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object check box is selected To prevent a subfolder or file from inheriting permissions from a parent folder, clear the Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object check box Then, select one of the
two options described in the following table
Option Description Copy Copies previously inherited permissions that are assigned to the parent
folder to the subfolder or file and denies subsequent permissions inheritance from the parent folder
Remove Removes the inherited permission that is assigned to the parent folder from
the subfolder or file and retains only the permissions that you explicitly assign to the subfolder or file
Slide Objective

Trang 22Exercise 1
Assigning NTFS Permissions for the Data Folder
You are setting up a server that will contain files and folders that users will need to be able to access from anywhere in the network You have already created a folder structure, and the next step is to assign permissions so that the users will have just enough permissions to accomplish their work You must be careful not to assign inappropriate permissions (permissions at a higher level than is necessary for the users)
You have a data folder into which users will be saving their work Users need the ability to save and modify their own work but not to change files that belong to other users You also want to ensure that only authorized users on the network can access the folder
The default permissions to the Data folder is Full Control for the Everyone group These permissions are more than users will need The first step is to remove these default permissions The permissions that you assign to the data folder are based on the following criteria:
!"All users in the domain should be able to read documents and files in the Data folder
!"All users in the domain should be able to create documents in the Data folder
!"All users in the domain should be able to modify the contents, properties, and permissions of the documents that they create in the Data folder
!!To remove default permissions from the Data folder
1 Log on to your domain as Administrator, and then start Windows Explorer
2 Right-click the C:\MOC\WIN1556A\Labfiles\Data folder, and then click
What are the existing folder permissions?
The Everyone group has Full Control
Trang 23
Notice that the currently allowed permissions cannot be modified
Why are you not able to modify the current permissions? What must you do
to modify the permissions for the Data folder?
The current permissions are being inherited from the parent To modify the permissions for the Data folder, clear the Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object check box
4 Under Name, select the Everyone group, and then click Remove
What do you see?
Windows 2000 displays a message box, indicating that the folder is inheriting the permissions for Everyone from its parent folder To change permissions for Everyone, you must first block inheritance
5 Click OK to close the message box
6 Clear the Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object check box to block permissions from being inherited
Windows 2000 displays the Security dialog box, prompting you to copy the
currently inherited permissions to the folder or to remove all permissions for the folder except those that you explicitly specify
7 Click Remove
What are the existing folder permissions?
No permissions are currently assigned
!!To assign permissions to the Users group for the Data folder
1 In the Data Properties dialog box, click Add
Windows 2000 displays the Select Users, Computers, or Groups
dialog box
2 In the Look in box at the top of the dialog box, select your domain
The Look in box allows you to select the computer or domain from which
to select user accounts, groups, or computers when you assign permissions Make sure that your domain is selected
3 Select Users, and then click Add
The dialog box displays Users under Name at the bottom of the dialog box
Trang 244 Click OK to return to the Data Properties dialog box
What are the existing allowed folder permissions?
The Users group has the Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, and Read permissions These are the default permissions that Windows 2000 assigns when you add a user account or group to the list of permissions
5 Make sure that Users is selected, and then next to Write, click the Allow
check box
6 Click Apply to save your changes
How do you give users the ability to modify only the files that they created?
You assign the full control permissions to the Creator Owner group This way, any file that a user creates in the folder will be owned by that user and given full control
!!To assign permissions to the Creator Owner group for the Data folder
1 In the Data Properties dialog box, click Add
Windows 2000 displays the Select Users, Groups, or Computers
dialog box
2 In the Look in box at the top of the dialog box, select your domain
3 In the Name list, select Creator Owner, and then click Add
Creator Owner appears under Name at the bottom of the dialog box
4 Click OK to return to the Data Properties dialog box
What are the existing allowed folder permissions?
Users has the Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, and Write permissions
Creator Owner has the Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, and Read permissions
Trang 25
5 Make sure that Creator Owner is selected, and next to Full Control, select the Allow check box Then click Apply to save your changes
When you applied the changes, why did the Administrators group appear
information You will need to give the Administrators group the ability to
do this This group should have full control over the folder and its contents
!!To assign permissions to the Administrators group for the Data folder
1 Right-click the C:\MOC\WIN1556A\Labfiles\Data folder, and select
Properties
2 Select the Security tab
3 In the Data Properties dialog box, make sure that Administrators is selected, and then next to Full Control, select the Allow check box
4 Click OK to apply your changes and close the Data Properties dialog box
5 Create a text file named Admin.txt in the C:\MOC\WIN1556A\Labfiles\Data folder
The file that you create will be used to test the permissions that you just assigned
6 Close all applications, and then log off Windows 2000
Trang 26!!To test the folder permissions that you assigned for the Data folder
1 Log on to your domain as User41 with no password, and then start
Windows Explorer
2 Expand the C:\MOC\WIN1556A\Labfiles\Data folder
3 In the Data folder, attempt to create a text file named User41.txt Were you successful? Why or why not?
Yes, because the Users group is assigned the Write permission for the Data folder
The tasks that you can complete are opening, modifying, and deleting the file because Creator Owner has been assigned the NTFS Full Control permission for the Data folder
5 Attempt to perform the following tasks for the file that the administrator created, and then record the tasks that you are able to complete
Task Successful?
Open the file Modify the file Delete the file
The tasks that you can complete are opening and modifying the file because you are logged on as a member of Domain Users, which is a member of the Users group The Users group has been assigned the NTFS Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, and Write permissions for the Data folder Files that are created in the folder inherit these folder permissions Therefore, User41 can only read and modify the file that the administrator created
6 Close all applications, and then log off Windows 2000

! Class Discussion: Copying and Moving Files
You may need to copy or move files and folders from one folder to another folder on the same partition You may need to copy or move files and folders from one partition to another partition Copying and moving files and folders may affect the permissions that are assigned to them Users may discover that they no longer have permissions for files and folders that have been copied or moved Users also may discover that they have access to files and folders that have been copied or moved to which they are not supposed to have access You should know what happens to file and folder permissions when a file or folder
is copied or moved
You may need to educate users about the effects on permissions when files and folders are copied or moved Also, you may have to resolve access problems for files and folders that have been copied or moved Examples will help you to understand how NTFS permissions change when you copy or move files and folders
Slide Objective
To introduce copying and
moving files and folders
Lead-in
Copying or moving files or
folders within and between
NTFS partitions may affect
permissions
Delivery Tip
This is an overview of
copying and moving files
and folders Prepare
students for the topic by
providing the following key
points of information
Key Points
When you copy or move
files and folders, the
permissions assigned for
them may change
Examples will help you to
understand how copying
and moving files and folders
affects permissions

Read, Write Permission
When you copy files or folders from one folder to another folder, or from one partition to another partition, permissions may change:
!"When you copy a folder or file within a single NTFS partition, the copy of the folder or file inherits the permissions of the destination folder
!"When you copy a folder or file between NTFS partitions, the copy of the folder or file inherits the permissions of the destination folder
!"When you copy files or folders to non-NTFS partitions such as FAT, the folders and files lose their NTFS permissions, because non-NTFS partitions
do not support NTFS permissions
To copy files and folders within a single NTFS partition or between NTFS partitions, you must have the Read permission for the origination folder and Write permission for the destination folder
When you copy a file or folder, you become the owner of that file
When you copy files or
folders from one NTFS
partition to another, the
Windows 2000 treats the file
as a new file As a new file,
it takes on the permissions
of the destination folder
You must have Write
permission for the
destination folder in order to
be able to copy files and
folders

Write, Modify Permissions
When you move a file or folder, permissions may change, depending on the destination of the file or folder Moving a file or folder has the following effects
To move files and folders within an NTFS partition or between NTFS partitions, you must have both Write permission for the destination folder and Modify permission for the source folder or file The Modify permission is required to move a folder or file because Windows 2000 removes the folder or file from the source folder after it copies it to the destination folder
When you move files or
folders from one NTFS
partition to another, the
permissions may change
Key Point
To move a file or folder, you
must have Write permission
for the destination folder and
the Modify permission for
the source folder
Trang 30Class Discussion: Copying and Moving Files
1 What permission does Group 1 have for FileA after FileA is copied to the C:\Public folder?
Group 1 has Modify permission for FileA, because FileA inherited the Modify permission from the destination folder after FileA was copied
2 What permission does Group 1 have for FileA after FileA is moved to the C:\Public folder?
Group 1 has no access because a file that is moved between folders on the same NTFS partition retains its permissions Because no
permissions were assigned to the file before it was moved, the file has no permissions after it is moved
3 What permission does Group 1 have for FileA after FileA is moved to the D:\Data folder?
Group 1 has Full Control permission for FileA after FileA is moved to D:\Data, because a move operation between NTFS partitions is treated
as copy and delete operations; therefore, FileA inherits permissions from the destination folder
Slide Objective
To reinforce students’
understanding of the results
of copying and moving files
on NTFS partitions
Lead-in
Let’s look at some examples
of what happens when you
copy or move files on NTFS
partitions
Delivery Tip
Discuss these examples
with students Present each
example, ask students to
predict the effective
permissions, and explain
why the effective
permissions are applied

Trang 32Exercise 1
Copying and Moving Files
User44 has information to which other users need access Currently, the files are in his home folder, and no other users have permissions to that folder
User44 must place the information in a folder to which he has permissions to save files and to which others have access User44 has determined that he has permissions to save files to the Public folder and the Storage folder After copying and moving the files, you will need to verify the permissions to the files to ensure others will have appropriate access
!!To determine current permissions assigned to files and folders
1 Log on as Administrator
2 Run Lab042.cmd in C:\MOC\WIN1556A\Labfiles folder to assign the appropriate permissions used in this exercise
3 Log off and then log on as User44 with no password
4 Open Windows Explorer
Storage Users
Administrators
Write Full Control
What permissions are assigned to the User44 folder and the files in the folder?
User44 has Full Control
What are the permissions that are assigned to the Public folder?
The Users group has Full Control
What are the permissions that are assigned to the Storage folder?
The Users group has Write, and Administrators have Full Control
