Problem
On a folder UserlistA has folder create, read, write, and Document read, file read, write, file write, change, delete.
GroupB has folder read, and document read and file read.
When UserA logs in, he can't create folders and files in this folder
Solution
Starting at the top is users, then groups, the userlists then *everyone.
So if a user is listed in a group that has specific permissions to a folder and listed in a userlist (whether via a group or directly listed) that has permissions to the same folder, the direct group permissions will trump a user list
If (user is directly mentioned in access list)
Then
If (No Access is defined for that user)
Then
User has No Access
Else
User has access specified for him
Else
If (there are groups mentioned that user belongs to)
Then
If (any such group defines No Access)
Then
User has No access
Else
User has a cumulative access from all group entries he belongs to
Else
If (there are User Lists mentioned that user belongs to)
Then
If (any such list defines No Access)
Then
User has No access
Else
User has a cumulative access from all User Lists entries he belongs to
Else
If (Everyone is included in the list)
Then
If (Everyone defines No Access)
Then
User has No Access
Else
User has access specified for Everyone.
Else
User has No Access. (Because the user is not included anywhere)
