Title: Limited 3rd party access to Home Drive.
Post by: bloodshoteye on March 18, 2008, 08:56:34 AM

Hi all,
I am using "Admin Shares" - where one allows a user/s, other than the Domain Admin, access to all home drives, read or write.

My client's need is a bit more complicated - allow read access to several supervisors to some but not all home drives. Has this been done before or is it impossible?

Thanks,

Use the concept outlined in this Howto.
For your situation create multiple shares with different paths & different allowed users

Thanks, Ray
Already using your howto for it's intended purpose.

The client I'm referring to is a senior school, therefore I would have to create > 500 shares. The task is somewhat daunting, which prompted my question.
