Difference of entries in tabs "Sharing permissions" vs. "Security" ?
Posted by Martin Caldwell on April 23rd, 2006


When I want to setup a folder sharing there is a button "Permissions" on the "Sharing" tab.
After clicking it I can enter e.g. "Everyone Allow full control=yes".

However on the tab "Security" there is a similar entry "Everyone Allow full control=yes" too.

So what is the difference between the settings ?

What if I disable full control for everyone in "Share permissions" but enable it in "Security"
(or vice versa) ? Which has priority?
