Please log in for more thread options Alternatively, and IMO more cleanly (I dislike use of Deny except
where there are no good alternatives), verify that Users is still granted
the User Right to Bypass Traverse Checking or that a custom group
you have defined for this purpose is.
Grant nothing to the folder for Users, or the group. They thus have
no permissions on the folder. Then, on the file grant Read.
Now, this may be modified.
On the folder one can grant Read for Files Only. This avoids the
need to grant to each file.
However, one then needs to grant for This Folder Only, the detail
right to Read Extended Attributes (not execute the folder and not
read data) and if one wants to avoid use of the Bypass Traverse
user rightthen also the detail right to Tranverse the folder.
