can't move folder, permissions needed

[Heeter]

Hey all

I am trying to move/rename/delete a folder with contents but I can't do nothing with it.

Tried changing permissions on it, to no avail.

What else can I do?

Thanks,

Heeter

Did you try taking ownership of the folder?

i do that on my pc at the drive level - except c:

If the folder isn't inheriting permissions it won't cre what permissions you set on the parent folder.

What OS you running?

Folder is sitting on a network drive.

The workstation OS is Vista. The FileServer is Win2003.

I remote desktop the server and tried from there as well, with no success.

How do I take ownership of folder?

Hi Tweakfiend, that helped. On a network folder too.

Thanks,
