Permissions Advice on Shared Folder

[the_wuigi]

I'm trying to setup a shared folder that pupilgroup users can create and delete their own files and folders within, other users of the group should not be able to edit or delete these files but can view them. Staffgroup can delete all files and folders within. I can't seem to nail the permissions down exactly the way I want.

I *think* what you want is CREATOR OWNER modify permissions, with students having read; otherwise you'll need to give every pupil their own directory pre-made, with the permissions set on each directory. The just give staff modify permissions to the whole share.

only issue I see with that is they wont be able to create new files there in the first place you would need to give authenticated users (or some other group) specific permissions to that folder (creator owner should take care of any further ones) to create files and create folders but not sure if it would work in practice

At a previous place I did this by a Group Policy Preference to create the folder at login. This way with the permissions set as @3s-gtech mentioned there was no required human input needed. Test, test and test.

 

The folder was for shared media work.

 

I set up Students so they could read every folder but could only delete files in their area. You might want to create a group in AD that you can simply add teachers to rather than adding teachers one by one.

Thanks guy's I managed to achieve this by playing about with special permissions.
