removing user from domain users group doesn't help OM 06-23-2006

Hi,

I have few shared folders on my w2k3 file server and most of them allow
read access for the domain users group.

I am trying to create a shared folder that only allows one group of
users to access. This group of users should has no access to other
shared folders. I created a new group and put all these users onto the
group and removed the domain users group from the "member of" property
of these users. So all these users are only member of the newly created
group. However, they are still able to access the file on the shares
that have read access for domain users.

Can someone advice how I can change the ntfs/share permission so that I
achieve my goal accordingly?

Thanks

OM

Did your test account log off and back in after the group membership
changes but before your retesting ?

This is a newly created group. I have also created a new user account in
this group for testing purpose.

Thanks

Fine. But does that mean that all tests were done with a fresh login
after all group membership changes had completed and propagated
to the authenticating domain controller ?

I just tried it again and the new user account is still able to all the
folders that has read permission for domain user group. I have checked
the user's member of property and the domain user indeed has been removed.
