Back to Top
Action
Log on to server with a password of Password!. (Remember the exclamation point.)
Click Start, then click Computer to open the Windows Explorer window. Create a folder called
Test inside the Users folder on drive C, and then create a folder called Utilities inside Test.
Right-click Utilities, click Properties, and then click the Security tab. Notice the grayed check
marks. These are inherited permissions.
Click Edit. Now you have the ability to change the permissions. You cannot change the ones
that are currently checked and deactivated because they are inherited. Remember that Deny
permissions override Allow permissions.
Click the Add button and then the Advanced button. Click the Find Now button and scroll down
to Server Operators and highlight it. Click OK twice to get back to the Properties window. Click
the Allow box for Modify.
