Is there any way to assign users to a folder on a shared drive? We currently have groups assigned to the folders on the shared drive, and of course users are in the groups. We want to limit the number of personnel to have access to this drive, however these groups are inherited by another. I have tried to delete the groups, but I'm not the owner of the drive, so only the IT can do this. Is there a way around this?

Hm.. without going against possible rules at your work, asking the IT is the best option.

If they are not acting (you can send an email and keep it as evidence) and then proceed to try modify the access. But I don't think that with limited access, you'll be able to change something...
