I do not believe you short of scheduling a script to reset owner and permission on a nightly basses.

That will disallow permission changes to the existing folder, but if they can make new content inside (as will be required), they own it and can set the permissions on those objects. That is what I am looking to prevent.

Adam, Simple (I think, unless I'm missing something). Give them NTFS "modify" (or RWXD) permission. This allows them to do everything they want with their data except change permissions. They'll have authority to view perms only, not change.

I was wondering if in any way it would be possible to prevent all NTFS permission changes inside a CIFS share or volume, including by file owners. I'm not concerned about the admins, but we want to support a strict permission structure with writable directories according to inherited permissions, but not allow end users to subvert the permission scheme by changing permissions on files they own. Wondering if there is any way to do this, or even if there are plausible or solid reasons why it would not be possible at all. I know you can remove the 'Change Permissions' NTFS property, but file owners can change their own. Thanks for any input.
