Replace the NTFS permissions on all of the child objects.

B.
Edit the Share permissions.

Edit the NTFS permissions.

D.

both the share permission and the NTFS permission entries. The more restrictive permissions are
then applied.

      Dog is correct

      I cannot beleve everyone keeps thinking its the Share Permissions.

      If you give Everyone Full control on the Share permission they will still be restricted at stage 2, NTFS

      You need to grant Group 2 “Modify” permissions to allow them to edit files that are owned by other users!

        I tried “Write” permission to allow edit files even owned by other users.

        I think should be B – Edit the Share Permission.

        also checked several other web sites which give the same answer B.

    1. Ricky says:

      Face palm. Did the question ask you to delete or rename? It simply asks if the users can EDIT the documents. You’ve got the right idea in your first sentence and if you read carefully, the given scenario already fulfilled this criteria. So why modify NTFS permissions then? Answer is correct in the question.

  1. Kampai says:

    full control is not added in NTFS permissions , Only read write mod , to delete requires more privileges like full control , since share permissions are defaulted to everyone = full , NTFS permissions are actually the most restricted in this case

    B

    Test this on a server and you’ll see…
    If you give user Read, Write and Execute, they can add new files, modify existing ones.

    The question says users can’t make changes to the files in the folder. Since the NTFS rights are ok, it has to be the share rights that are too restrictive.

    * i don this in lab:
    1. user 1
    2. make folder, share: Everyone – full control (user1 can write in a document made in that folder)
    2. same folder only (change/read +the same NTFS – user2 can write in document)
    3. same folder only (read -> the user2 can’t save in file!!!)
    the file is accessed from network
    So B is corect
    Ps. when you select read&execute you have list folder selected and read
