Share permissions questions (domain\administrators) group


hi all,

i in process of moving folders windows 2003 server (dc) windows 2008 r2 standard (member server) , sharing them 2k8 server. sharing part server behavior have not seen before , seeking further clarification on these issues. have folder called data in d:\ contain folders. each of these folders shared out users based on groups. listed below 2 issues seeking clarification on...

1. of folders have different permissions, not inheriting permissions parent folder (data). when case, shared button "grayed out". found on forum posting share button clickable "inheritance" has turned on. tired works, don't understand why case. if can explain me, appreciate it.

2. old shares on dc "domain\administrators" group listed on folder share permissions. since new server member server obvious choice use "servername\administrators" (local admins) group. accidentally i found think bug , here how can replicated. since folders "non inherited" permissions cannot shared out (button grayed out), click on "advanced sharing" button. here check box "share folder", click on "permissions -> add" , type in "administrators". default searching domain objects , result object not found. if go folder "inherited permissions" turned on , use share button, finds "local administrators group on domain level". bug or design flaw?

i hope has answers these questions.

thanks in advance!

hi mandeep,

for first question, check if caused use sharing wizard option.

1. open control panel ->classic viewer ->folder options or windows explorer>organize>folder , search options..

2. click on view tab.

4. check use sharing wizard (recommended) box.

note: after disabling file sharing wizard, share option under sharing tab grayed out.

for second question, of course not find local administrators group when searching in domain accounts (location button shows "domain.com" instead of local pc name), strange find nothing input "administrators", causes @ least find domain.com\administrators group. if first issue can fixed please test again.
