My documents "You do not have access to the folder"
Alex <postings[ at ]alexshirley.com> 5/22/2007 2:35:52 PM
Hi

I have an issue in all office XP applications such as Excel XP/Word XP/
Outlook 2003.

Users can fully access their "my documents" folder through explorer
perfectly well. However when they try and save a document in an office
app they get

You do not have access to the folder \\Windows2003server\mydocuments$.
See your administrator for access to this folder. Well I am the server
administrator, and I've set up permissions as recommended here:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/xpusrdat.mspx

Note I've removed any group policy for this scenario (well at least I
think I have).

So I'm very confused indeed as to what is going on (not least my
users), any ideas?

Many thanks...!

Alex

You will need to take ownership of the file

Hi Peter

Well I think I already have this set up, here is the full detail:

* Share permissions for parent folder:
Authenticated User (full)
Everyone: Read

* Parent folder permissions:
Owner: Administrators
Administrator: Full control (this folder, subfolders and files)
Authenticated users: List folder/read data, create folders/append data
(this folder only).
CREATOR OWNER: Full control (Subfolders and files only)
SYSTEM: Full control (this folder, subfolders and files).

* Below this is a folder [USER ACCOUNT NAME]:
Owner: User's account
Administrators: Full control (this folder, subfolders and files)
User's account: Full control (this folder, subfolders and files)
SYSTEM: FUll control (this folder, subfolders and files)

* Below this is the my documents folder: [USER ACCOUNT NAME]'s
Documents
Owner: User's account
Administrators: Full control (this folder, subfolders and files)
User's account: Full control (this folder, subfolders and files)
SYSTEM: Full control (this folder, subfolders and files)

Any clue?

Thanks!

Re: My documents "You do not have access to the folder"
"Mary Sauer" <mary-sauer[ at ]mycolumbus.rr.com> 5/29/2007 3:15:53 PM
I would download FileMon and RegMon from
http://www.sysinternals.com/. Run them as administrator (when no
user is connected), start a TS session as a normal user and try to
run the application.

FileMon and RegMon will show you all "access denied" errors that
occur, so that you can give your users the necessary permissions on
a file-to file or Registry subkey basis.
