Question: I have a public area in my server where every employee has their own folder. The shared folder is called Public folder -> Staff folders - > Jack, Mark, Jenny folders...
I am now giving them permissions:
1) read & execute
2) list folder content
3) read
4) write
and the owner of the folder has full control.

They need to place files sometimes in other people's folders, so I have to give them WRITE. However, I don't want them to create folders or place files in the public and staff folder. Can I just remove the WRITE from the public and staff folder to achieve that? For individual employee folders, I still need the WRITE so they can copy files between each other, right?

Is there a better solution for this scenario?

Thanks!

Answer: You want to remove the write and replace it at the staff folders folder with a special permission. If you edit special permissions you will see both write files option and create folders option. They are two separate rights. This should give you the level of control you need.
