Can you both audit a file screen and enforce another one on the same folder?

By
This question came about when a student was wondering about enforcing a file screen for one type of file, but auditing for another type. I first tested this by attempting to apply two separate file screens to the same folder. I received the following error:

Can't create file screen in the given path as a file screen already exists for that path.

I then created a child folder inside the original one and then apply a different file screen to it. In this configuration, I was able to get FSRM to block one type of file, and audit the other. Set up your share on the child folder. This one will have both screens being applied to it and is the one that we want users to store their data in.

I'm having a similar problem, I tried to use a "subst" command to duplicate my drive but you get the following error "The path is either invalid or it doesn't exist".

Error icon when creating a GPO Preference drive map

By
You may not have an error at all.  Take a look at the drive mapping below. The red triangle is what threw us off.  It is not an error.  It is simply a color representation of the Replace option of the Action field in the properties of the drive mappings. Create action This give you a green triangle. The Create action creates a new mapped drive for users. Replace Action The Replace action gives you a red triangle.  This action will delete and recreate mapped drives for users. The net result of the Replace action is to overwrite all existing settings associated with the mapped drive. If the drive mapping does not exist, then the Replace action creates a new drive mapping. Update Action The Update action will have a yellow triangle. Update will modify settings of an existing mapped drive for users. This action differs from Replace in that it only updates settings defined within the preference item. All other settings remain as configured on the ma...
