EPS and Doc Libary Permissions Not working (VIEW is allowing Delet

[ljsexton]

Follow up to below published on 5/19/06 - Does anyone have any ideas on how
to debug this problem or has anyone else had a similar experience? I have
been working with our IT Mgr who is very familar with Share Point Services
and still no luck on the source of this problem.
Sincerely in desparate need of assistance.
Thanks,
Jackie

We are using the PWA Doc Library for Public Documents. In this top level
shared documents folder we have several sub folders. One of those sub folders
has specific permissions for everyone set to VIEW only with only 3 specific
people set to allow for full control (view, edit, create, delete)
But, any of the users with VEIW only are able to select a doc and Delete it
- any ideas on what we may doing wrong or how to go about debugging this
problem.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
We are wanting to use the Public Doc workspace to manage our company wide
Development documentation that is not Project specific but we can not do so
until we get this security thing fixed.

Hi Jackie,
Sounds like permission inheritance. See if the below procedure helps.

1.On the Site Settings page of the subsite that you want to configure, in
the Administration section, click Go to Site Administration.
2. On the Site Administration page, in the Users and Permissions section,
click Manage permission inheritance.
3. In the Permissions area, specify whether or not you want the subsite to
use the same account and site group information as the parent Web site.
4. Click OK.

Below is the following info on this site - it appears that is it set to Not
use the interirted permissions but also that something is overriding the
settings visible here - which is for general resources to Only have VIEW
permissions yet they can select an object and then choose Delete and the
object is removed from the EPS Doc Libary.
Not sure where else to look -

"This document library has unique permissions that are not inherited from
the parent Web site. Inherit permissions from the parent Web site."
