How to take ownership of a roaming profile folder in active directory

Post by smidley »

Whew...lol, havn't posted here in a LONG time! Nice to be back though! :)

I am a network administrator with full access to everything on the network. I changed a users profile on my network to a roaming profile and pointed to the directory in active directory. However, when I am assigning permissions to the user on his profile folder, I am unable to set him as the owner of the folder. I can only set myself or the administrators group to take ownership. This causes the user to be unable to login to his profile because he doesn't have proper ownership. Any help on this?

Nevermind... answered my own question. You have to assign ownership from a windows 2003 server. :)

People will forget what you said... and people will forget what you did... but people will never forget how you made them feel.
