[SOLVED] Can only delete shared files locally - howcome ?

Bet · 04-16-2009, 02:15 PM

I have files shared in LAN with full permissions ("Everyone") but from some reason I cannot delete them via the network (I can only access\copy\view etc..). I can delete these files only by logging in to the server locally.

Why I cannot delete these files via the network ?

Thanx in advance!

Are you logging in as a different user for the network as opposed to on the server? Check the NTFS permissions to see if you have full access there.

Thank you for replying.

Apparently it was something with the sharing's permissions: under the sharing tab, in "Permissions" (not under the security tab) - I set them to "allow" and that was it.
