Question

A user is a member of the 'Sales' group. On a shared folder named Reports, the Share permission for the Sales group is set to Read. The NTFS permission for the Sales group on that same folder is set to Modify. When the user accesses the folder over the network from another computer, what is the user's effective level of access?

Accepted Answer

Read, because the most restrictive permission applies when combining Share and NTFS permissions

Answer

Modify, because NTFS permissions always override Share permissions

Answer

Full Control, because the two permissions are added together

Answer

No access, because conflicting Share and NTFS permissions cancel each other out
