You have just configured permissions for a set of folders on an NTFS disk, the folders also have another set of share permissions. When a user connects to one of these folders through a network share, which of the following is true?
Only Share permissions will apply when accessing through a share folder
Only NTFS permissions will apply when accessing through a shared NTFS folder
The most restrictive permissions from both NTFS and Share will apply
The least restrictive permissions from both NTFS and Share will apply
When accessing through a network share both NTFS and share permissions will apply. When accessing a file or folder directly only NTFS permissions will apply. In either case the principle of least privilege will apply and the most restrictive permissions will always take priority.
