Guidelines for NTFS permissions
 Each user can have multiple NTFS file
and folder permissions assigned, plus
permissions assigned to his/her
groups
 NTFS permissions are cumulative
 NTFS permissions are inherited
 Explicit denial overrides all
corresponding permissions
 Administrators can take ownership
and change permissions
Assigning NTFS permissions
 Simple File Sharing:
– Windows XP Home
– Windows XP Media Center Edition
– Windows XP Professional non-domain
members
 Windows 7 and Vista don’t use Simple File
Sharing
 Can disable Simple File Sharing in
Windows XP Professional
 Effective permissions = sum of share and
NTFS permissions
Effective permissions
 Sum of share and NTFS permissions
 More restrictive permission between
the two determines access
 Microsoft uses “effective permissions”
to refer to resulting abilities of a user
or group
– Effective Permissions tab in Advanced
Security Settings dialog box
