You know people that call other people stupid without really knowing them in my book shall be forever messed with. This new network guy that one of my clients hired must have a short man complex (now don't get me wrong here, I have dated short guys and there is nothing wrong with them in general but this guy really has a complex or something) I asked him 3 weeks ago to make it where the general users do not have full access to the system folders on the network - that's just asking for trouble - he finally took care of it after my client asked him to do it - ok, maybe he didn't know that I have the rights to ask him to do it but the original setup was that system folders were not available to look at - they were hidden shares as were many other shares like the accounting folder but I digress.
My request - make the system folders unviewable by the general population, make them read/execute and read only and apparently that includes list folders and contents.
So what's he ask me? have you seen a network where that was the case?
Well duh, yes, all the time. The original setup was that way. And this is why he will forever now be messed with by me.
My actual answer: well yes actually - you have it set up that way on the folders except in the past I've hidden the shared folders with a $ sign after so that no one know they are there and that way, the read/execute/list/read permissions still work but no one can see them. These folders were hidden before you started working on our network (i'll admit I had to ask another network guy how to do this because I couldn't remember how it worked but little network guy doesn't need to know that part)
