I have the AD powershell module installed and group polices

Any idea what I can do to fix this?

Hello,

Can you check the folder for any deny permissions on the folder?

Regards,

Trevor

Still having this issue with a single server. No idea why, anyone have any clues. I have made sure all powershell modules (AD and Group Policies) are installed, that their are no deny permissions anywhere and the user running the app pool for solidcp has full rights.

Thanks

Hello,

How do you have your SolidCP Server set for AD Authentication and do you use a AD user when installing SolidCP Server?

Kind Regards,

Trevor

Everything else works creation of sites, and management of them, just not file security management.  I tried changing the authentication type to secure and changing the active directory settings but nothing seems to work. During the install I'm sure I was logged in as the AD admin user, but that was months ago. Can I just uninstall and reinstall the server software with out having issues? I looked through the source and the file security settings seem to be coming from a standard .net class.

There is 8 webservers in this setup and I verified they are all identical and this is the only one with issues.
