I have a customer who had a chronic problem in past with files coming up missing. I set up a file system auditing process that runs nightly, but the email report is frequently not read. I decided to create a domain group called deletion prevention, and everyone in this group is prevented from deleting any files in various directories and subdirectories. The problem is that this is working too well. A user cannot open a file on network drive S: and save to network drive T:. The copy process complains about access to a .tmp file. They can get around this by saving the file in a location they have unrestricted access to, and then copying over the drive T:, but this is a hassle. Also, everytime a document or spreadsheet is edited, a .tmp file is left behind, so we have some folders with a large number of .tmp files.
There has to be a better way of doing this. Can anyone help me out? Thanks
