I am using the following simple code to add full control to a directory, but it doesn't work.
String dir_name = @"folder_full_path";
DirectorySecurity dir_security = Directory.GetAccessControl(dir_name);
FileSystemAccessRule access_rule = new FileSystemAccessRule(@"AccountName",
FileSystemRights.FullControl, AccessControlType.Allow);
dSecurity.AddAccessRule(access_rule);
Directory.SetAccessControl(dir_name, dir_security);
But this code only set special permissions to the target folder. This code is almost the same as the MSDN sample. I am scratching my head for a reasonable explanation... Hope someone could shed some light on me.
Many thanks.
