I don't understand something... I have a file share on a server with
full control share permissions but limited NTFS permissions propagated
all the way down through the structure. NTFS permissions are full
control for administrators and system, read-only for domain users. It
mostly works as expected, however, why is it that when I log in to
another server within the same domain with only the local admin
account, I can edit all files within the share.

Thanks,
Pete

From what you have stated are the existing grants at the share
and the NTFS level, when you log into a different machine with
a machine local account, whether an admin on that machine or
not, then you should have no access whatsoever to the share.

It sounds like the built in administrator account has the same password on
the server with the share and the server you logged onto. If you can access
the administrative shares such as C$ on that server also then that would
verify they do have the same password. --- Steve

The local admin account and password are in sync. This is yet another
reason why different admin accounts should have different passwords.
