Hi, On a exchange 2003 std box I have assigned a security group to a public folder for managing the rights. But the server does not check membership for the user in this group. If the user itself has no rights to access the folder he can't access it even when he is in assigned security group. Where do I have to look for the problem? thanks norbert

As Lanwench states, make sure you're AD is in Native mode. Also, use a Universal Security Group. The membership of a universal group is stored in the GC partition of AD. Domain groups require expansion. Domain groups are notorious for failing silently when there are issues with expansion. Using a USG is a best practice.
