I have a share:
\\servername\profiles

in each user's profile path I have:
\\servername\Profiles\%username%

how do I make sure that the administrator has access to each of the users's
profile directory?

when I try to browse the user's profile directory, I cannot browse it,
because the owner of the directory is the user.

thanks.

I use a third party management tool called Hyena, which allows me to set
whatever user or group i want to be owner of user's profiles and home
directories. I'm not sure how to do it otherwise. Perhaps with CACLS or
SUBINACLS.

Check to see if the admin account has full permission rights to the Profiles
folder with the allow propagation to sub folders checked.

yes, I have those checked.

I had to remove the creator owner and change it to creator group so admin
can see when the user directory is created.
