1 Assumptions
All File and Print servers under AD are running Windows Server 2003 R2 editions or higher.
All user accounts are in Tollgroup
Business Units are not granted Admin rights to File Print Servers
Business Units and people are not granted Full control Permissions anytime
2 Purpose
The purpose of this document is to detail how to setup a Windows File and Print server to the Toll IT Groups
standards. This document is for the Tollgroup.local domain. Once setup, all users across the country will
have the same mapped drives on each site allowing easier maintenance and support. The Business Unit and
Service Desks can allocate users to groups without having to log onto the server.
3 Active Directory
Under AD, renaming of Security Groups is allowed. If the server is renamed or upgraded, the
Security Groups can be used on the new server and renamed to match the naming convention
Under the Tollgroup domain, if the Security Groups require that you have a mixture of Toll &
Tollgroup users, the security group must be a Domain Local group.
If you only have Tollgroup users, then the Security Group should be a Domain Global group.
Each server must have its own Security group. It can contain other security groups and users.

We don‟t want that because they
can then change the security of
the folder, which would be bad!
Say NO

Power Users By default, members of this group have no No Default User rights
more user rights or permissions than a
standard user account. The Power Users
group in previous versions of Windows was
designed to give users specific administrator
rights and permissions to perform common
system tasks. In this version of Windows,
standard user accounts inherently have the
ability to perform most common configuration
tasks, such as changing time zones. For
legacy applications that require the same
Power User rights and permissions that were
present in previous versions of Windows,
administrators can apply a security template
that enables the Power Users group to
assume the same rights and permissions
that were present in previous versions of
Windows.

Permissions Description
Traverse For folders: Traverse Folder allows or denies moving through
Folder/Execute File folders to reach other files or folders, even if the user has no
permissions for the traversed folders. (Applies to folders only.)
Traverse folder takes effect only when the group or user is not
granted the Bypass traverse checking user right in the
Group Policy snap-in. (By default, the Everyone group is
given the Bypass traverse checking user right.)
4.1.2 Print
The user can connect to a printer and send documents to the printer. By default, the Print permission is assigned to
all members of the Everyone group.
The user can perform the tasks associated with the Print permission and has complete administrative control of the
printer. The user can pause and restart the printer, change spooler settings, share a printer, adjust printer
permissions, and change printer properties. By default, the Manage Printers permission is assigned to members of
the Administrators and Power Users groups.
By default, members of the Administrators and Power Users groups have full access, which means that the users
are assigned the Print, Manage Documents, and Manage Printers permissions.
The user can pause, resume, restart, cancel, and rearrange the order of documents submitted by all other users.
The user cannot, however, send documents to the printer or control the status of the printer. By default, the
Manage Documents permission is assigned to members of the Creator Owner group.
When a user is assigned the Manage Documents permission, the user cannot access existing documents currently
waiting to print. The permission will only apply to documents sent to the printer after the permission is assigned to
the user.
Deny
All of the preceding permissions are denied for the printer. When access is denied, the user cannot use or manage
the printer or adjust any of the permissions.
