Toll Group Information Technology File & Print Server Setup under Tollgroup

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

3.1 Active Directory Group Naming Convention


Tollgroup Active Directory (AD) naming conventions for Security Groups being associated with file
and Print servers are as follows:
Servername_Sharename e.g Corfpmelp1_Risk

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.

3.2 Active Directory Groups and Script Locations


3.2.1 Active Directory Groups
Active directory groups are located under the following Organisational Unit:
Tollgroup.local\Groups\BusinessUnit\Users – All User Security groups
Tollgroup.local\Groups\BusinessUnit\Computers – All SCCM Security groups
Tollgroup.local\Groups\BusinessUnit\Distribution – All Email lists

Version [Version] (uncontrolled if printed) Project [Subject] - Page 4 of 27


Toll Group Information Technology File & Print Server Setup under Tollgroup

3.2.2 Script Location


The scripts are located in the netlogon folder of each Domain Controller.
Each script can only be edited by a Domain Admin

3.3 Permissions & Drive Mappings on clients


An Active Directory group needs to be created to allow the mapping of drives to client workstations.
This group is made up for each File & Print server and is named with the following convention:
Servername_AllUsers e.g. Corfpmelp1_AllUsers
This group should be located under Tollgroup.local\Groups\BusinessUnit\Users in Active Directory.
All Tollgroup users run a logon script called tollit.bat.
This batch file runs and maps local drives based on AD security groups using a kix script,
specifically setup for each File & Print server. Only users logging on under the Tollgroup domain
will automatically have drives mapped to their workstations.
In order for the script to map the drives, they must be part of two Active Directory groups. These
groups are as follows:
 Servername_AllUsers
 Servername_Sharename
Two groups are used in the logon batch file. This speeds up the logon process so it doesn‟t
process all security groups for each user on logon. The script only processes the
ServerName_AllUsers groups. If you are a member of one of these groups, it then processes the
script relevant for the file/print server. If you are not a member of any of the ServerName_AllUsers
groups, the script exits and no client drives are mapped.
If you only require people to have access to the share but do require client drive mappings, then
only put the person in the Servername_Sharename group.

Toll Group Information Technology File & Print Server Setup under Tollgroup

3.4 Active Directory Setup of Groups


In Active Directory, we create groups to map client drives. These groups are only used once
throughout Toll.
The group creation process shown below is using TollExpress as an example. Replace TollExpress
with IPEC, Priority etc, when creating groups.
The example below breaks the groups into server locations. This is optional but allows the ability to
give the granular control over who can edit groups in the organisation. The Manager for Toll
Express can manage all groups across Toll for the Business Unit. The Manager can also delegate
control to his underlings to control their server groups if required.

 When naming a group, the following must be adhere to:


 No spaces in the Name (underscores _ are allowed to replace spaces)
 Where possible, use Camel Case, (mixture of Upper & Lower case characters)
 All new words to start with a capital Letter i.e. TEDarwin2K3_Dids_Restricted
 Description must be filled out
 Notes must be filled out

Active Directory Group Creation

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.

4.1.1 Setting of Folder Permissions

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.)

For files: Execute File allows or denies running program files.


(Applies to files only).

Setting the Traverse Folder permission on a folder does not


automatically set the Execute File permission on all files
within that folder.
List Folder/Read List Folder allows or denies viewing file names and subfolder
Data names within the folder. List Folder only affects the contents
of that folder and does not affect whether the folder you are
setting the permission on will be listed. (Applies to folders
only.)

Read Data allows or denies viewing data in files. (Applies to


files only.)
Read Attributes Allows or denies viewing the attributes of a file or folder, such
as read-only and hidden. Attributes are defined by NTFS.
Read Extended Allows or denies viewing the extended attributes of a file or
Attributes folder. Extended attributes are defined by programs and may
vary by program.
Create Files/Write Create Files allows or denies creating files within the folder.
Data (Applies to folders only).

Write Data allows or denies making changes to the file and


overwriting existing content. (Applies to files only.)
Create Create Folders allows or denies creating folders within the
Folders/Append folder. (Applies to folders only.)
Data
Append Data allows or denies making changes to the end of
the file but not changing, deleting, or overwriting existing data.
(Applies to files only.)
Write Attributes Allows or denies changing the attributes of a file or folder,
such as read-only or hidden. Attributes are defined by NTFS.

The Write Attributes permission does not imply creating or


deleting files or folders, it only includes the permission to
make changes to the attributes of a file or folder. In order to
allow (or deny) create or delete operations, see Create
Files/Write Data, Create Folders/Append Data, Delete

Version [Version] (uncontrolled if printed) Project [Subject] - Page 24 of 27


Toll Group Information Technology File & Print Server Setup under Tollgroup

Subfolders and Files, and Delete.


Write Extended Allows or denies changing the extended attributes of a file or
Attributes folder. Extended attributes are defined by programs and may
vary by program.

The Write Extended Attributes permission does not imply


creating or deleting files or folders, it only includes the
permission to make changes to the attributes of a file or
folder. In order to allow (or deny) create or delete operations,
see Create Files/Write Data, Create Folders/Append Data,
Delete Subfolders and Files, and Delete.
Delete Subfolders Allows or denies deleting subfolders and files, even if the
and Files Delete permission has not been granted on the subfolder or
file. (Applies to folders.)
Delete Allows or denies deleting the file or folder. If you do not have
Delete permission on a file or folder, you can still delete it if
you have been granted Delete Subfolders and Files on the
parent folder.
Read Permissions llows or denies reading permissions of the file or folder, such
as Full Control, Read, and Write.
Change Allows or denies changing permissions of the file or folder,
Permissions such as Full Control, Read, and Write
Take Ownership Allows or denies taking ownership of the file or folder. The
owner of a file or folder can always change permissions on it,
regardless of any existing permissions that protect the file or
folder.
Synchronize Allows or denies different threads to wait on the handle for the
file or folder and synchronize with another thread that may
signal it. This permission applies only to multithreaded,
multiprocess programs.

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.

4.1.3 Manage Printers

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.

Version [Version] (uncontrolled if printed) Project [Subject] - Page 25 of 27


Toll Group Information Technology File & Print Server Setup under Tollgroup

4.1.4 Manage Documents

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.
