SYMPTOMS
If you remove an administrator from the coordinator role for a folder, this administrator cannot re-add himself or herself as a coordinator.

CAUSE
With SharePoint Portal Server, the Security tab in the folder's Properties box is only available to coordinators.

RESOLUTION
Another coordinator must give the administrator coordinator access to the folder. Note that the SharePoint Portal Server user interface prevents you from removing all coordinators for a folder, which would prevent management of that folder.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
