Share and NTFS permissions

Step 1. Set the Share Permissions

 

To set the permissions correctly on the Driver Packages share make sure the following are selected

 

Everyone = Reader

SMSadmin = Owner

SYSTEM = Co-Owner

 

where SMSadmin is the user you are using to Administer the SCCM server (this account has local administrative permissions on the sccm server and is a member of the local administrators on that server)

 

 

 

 

Step 2. Set the NTFS Security Permissions

 

verify that the SYSTEM account has Full Control

 

 

verify that the SMSadmin account has Full Control

 

 

verify that the Everyone account has Read & Execute, List Folder contents, Read,

I typically will configure the Driver Package source paths using the administrative share, to bypass the stacking of (share + NTFS) permissions.
