Hi, I have SAS which is on Unix but mounted on for Windows so users can see their files and folder as per normal Windows view as opposed to Unix. The problem I keep having is when i set up a folder on Windows and then files put into this directory by a user does not help them get their permissions to use that file in SAS, even though they were the ones who copied it over into the relevant directory via Windows. I have set up users in each group and a folder named for them and the aim is they have full right within their designated folders only, so for example: Team: Pricing Folder: Pricing Windows permissions: Full rights have been set UNIX permissions: Full rights have been set. However when SAS needs to import the file or use it, it requires me to keep updating the permissions for the user to use the file. The user ID list is as follows in UNIX: uid=1009802747(RPricing) gid=1009802678(pricing) groups=1009800513(domain users),1009802630(all users),1009802707(resandpri),1009802134(uwusers),1009802149(prianduw),1009802704(users),1009802631(ts users),1009802678(pricing) SAS does not recognise this user is a member of pricing and therefore should have full rights. When a new file is imported the default permission is set to: d---rwx--- so this would allow all users in the group pricing to use the file but does not work on this occassion. Anybody able to help please as it would be much appreciated. Thanks
