A local administrator would by default have full control permissions to
every folder with the possible exception of other users profile folders. You
may have a Group Policy restriction of some sort under user
configuration/administrative templates that is causing the problem. On the
Windows 2003 domain controller for the XP Pro domain computers you can use
the Resultant Set of Policy mmc snapin to see what Group Policy settings are
applied to a user and what Group Policy is applying the setting to see if
that is causing the problem. To answer your question you can use a Group
Policy "startup" script using the cacls command to change permissions on a
folder and the SysInternals has free tools such as filemon and regmon that
can help determine access problems by logging real time access to files and
registry keys. --- Steve
