I'm just talking about how file/directory permissions are set within the admin tools. i.e. to give your id access to directory xyz in netware i simply give you permission to that directory and you can map to it.

The same thing in MS means that the user has to be able to see the ENTIRE directory structure from the root to the directory and they have to be DENIED access to all of the other directories up the tree from the target directory.

It's ridiculous.

Don't even get me started on group permissioning.
