I am trying to copy a file from a Windows 2003 Server (behind a firewall) to another Windows 2003 Server (other side of the firewall) using pass-through authentication (local user accounts on both servers). If the local account on the target server is in the local administrators group the copy works fine, but without administrator priveleges I get "Access is Denied". Any idea what type of privelege is required to copy files? Obviously I can't get away with having the locl account in the local administrators group.

I am attempting to copy a folder from a CD to a harddrive. Being a CD I am unable to change the files attributes. Keep getting the Access Denied message. Is there a way around this?

You should be able to change the attributes on the files once they've been copied to your hard disk.

If you start up in safe mode, you will get another user logon called administrator. Log in there and when you go to the security part of the file with a right click, the settings are accessable to change.

Since I've been using XP I've never had so many 'locked' files in my life. I save a lot of web pages such as yours on my hard drive.

I double click on them to open them in Opera. That file will be locked and I can't delete or move it. On the other hand, if I open Opera first and drag and drop the file into it, it wont be locked.

I also have occasions where I had to delete files and sometimes sub-folders within a folder before I could delete the main folder.

I came across a simple utility that might help, called 'Unlocker', from:

I'm using XP Home. All my HDs are formatted NTFS. There's no 'Security' tab on any file's 'Properties' sheet.
