Folder Security

64
Good morning.

I have multiple users on XP machines. Our network is server 2003. I am creating a group of folders with sensitive information that I want available only to a select group of users. I would like to create a permissions group of these users to be able to assign permissions to these folders as a group as opposed to adding their individual names every time I create one of these sensitive folders. and I want everybody in this group to be able to create and secure these types of folders accordingly.

Make any sense?

Use the AD to create a Group and Add your required users to it. You can then set the permissions on your folder to allow access only for the group that you created.
