Windows Server 2008 Default Share Permissions
I was working on the June CTP for Windows Server 2008 when I created a basic file share. One of my students, looking over my shoulder, asked me to check the default share permissions.
-
Windows 2000 Server, the default is Everyone with Full Control
-
Windows Server 2003, the default is Everyone with Read
In Windows Server 2008, there are no default permissions. The only permission that is there when you create the share is the Administrator with Ownership, but that is it. When you create the share, it bring up the window to create the permissions right away.
I tell you, the more I see of Windows Server 2008, the more I like it.
