I applied ntfs special permission "List Folder/Read Data" on a folder that contains a simple text file, now i can open the folder and see the names of files and subdirectories inside the folder , but i can't open the file to read its data , and when i do i get access denied ! , why is that ?
as far as i know:
List Folder allows or denies viewing file names and subfolder nameswithin the folder. List Folder affects the contents of that folderonly and does not affect whether the folder you are setting thepermission on will be listed. (Applies to folders only.)
Read Data allows or denies viewing data in files. (Applies to filesonly.)
so Read Data part of the permission should allow me to read the content of the text file inside the folder.
another thing , weather i set the "Read Attributes" permission or not i still can see the file/folder standard attributes , it is like it has no effect at all !
Can anyone please guide me through this ?
