    Third question of the day:

    How do I give Person A the same rights to various folders as Person B?

    (considering the admin before me did not use groups too extensively)

    As mentioned before, I'm using Active Directory on Server 2003.

    What's stopping you from setting up the groups yourself in Active Directory?

    Look at Person A's permissions for a certain folder.

    Create a group. Mirror the permissions from Person A.

    Add Person A and Person B to the group.

    put them in groups and set permissions on the groups... best solution, out the effort in now and then down the line when jon from finance needs access to the marketing information it'll take you 30 seconds to sort out...
