1. Calculating Effective Permissions Manually
While answering each of the following questions
Assume ALL accounts on your server are members of the Users Group (including Administrators)
Assume all access is remote – that is, the questions are referring to accessing the shared folder over the network, not locally
Assume the permissions listed for each folder are the only permissions that exist on that folder
Note: The permissions set in the slides in this power point presentation are NOT the recommended or suggested permissions, they are being used to test your abilities in calculating effective permissions.
The GUI method to calculate permissions cannot be used to calculate remote permissions.
