I want to restrict some folders on my server so that only one user has access. This user has administrator rights, but is not the actual "Administrator" account.
When I try to modify Permissions for a folder, such as removing groups or user names from the Security tab, i get this message:
You can't remove Administrators/Users because this object is
inheriting permissions from its parent. To remove
Administrators/Users, you must prevent this object from inheriting
permissions. Turn off the option for inheriting permissions, and then
try again.
Where do I go to do this?

Stop the permissions from inheriting. You can do this by clicking Advanced on the Security tab and unchecking the box for inheritance.
