I have 4 directories and 4 groups and I want each group have access to one directory for example GroupA access to Directory A and GroupB access to Directory B and .... . and also I install DFS management and DFS Replication .But i don't know How can i assign permission on directory with DFS .I created namespace on DFS with full permission for administrator and read/write for user but in this situation my scenarios doesn't work because all user has read and write permission and i assigned deny permission on ntfs permission for users but after doing this nobody have access to directory.... my server is 2012 and I realy need help about inherit roles on DFS and NTFS permission after configuration DFS.

thank you

Let's assume the following:

  • Your DFS namespace is \\example.com\shares
  • Your DFS points to a local drive E:\shares
  • In E:\shares there are two directories, FolderA and FolderB

Permissions for the E:\shares directory are as follows:

  • Share: Everyone - Change
  • NTFS: GroupA and GroupB - Everything but Write, Delete Subfolder and Files, Delete, Take Ownership, Change Ownership > Apply to: This Folder Only

Permissions for the E:\shares\FolderA directory:

  • Inheritance: Disabled > Convert to explicit
  • NTFS: GroupA - Everything but Delete, Change Ownership > Apply to: This Folder, Subfolders, and Files

Permissions for the E:\shares\FolderB directory:

  • Inheritance: Disabled > Convert to explicit
  • NTFS: GroupB - Everything but Delete, Change Ownership > Apply to: This Folder, Subfolders, and Files

OR

You could create a DFS namespace for each group if you want to in this format. \\example.com\groupA, \\example.com\groupB, etc.
