SYMPTOMS
While running the Add a New User Wizard, you may get the following error after creating the user account then clicking OK:

The Wizard was unable to read the permission information on the shared folder CDRom. As a result, the shared folder list may be incomplete.

If you click OK, the Add a New User Wizard continues without error.



CAUSE
If you share the CD-ROM drive on a computer running Small Business Server, this error will occur. The wizard is looking for NTFS permissions and there are none on a CD-ROM drive. Because these permissions don't exist, the error is generated.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, you can do one of the following:


 * At the error dialog box, click OK to continue.

-or-
 * Stop sharing the CD-ROM drive.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in BackOffice Small Business Server version 4.0 and 4.0a. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
