Setting permissions on folders created through group policy

group-policywindows-server-2012

I have a domain controller running server 2012 std. In the default domain policy I set up a folder in User Configuration>Windows Settings>Folders The path is \\MyServer\MyShare\%USERNAME%

This works well. Any user that logs in gets a folder on the server the same as their user name. I'm also automatically mapping to that folder. What I can't figure out is how to set each folder so that only that user (and the admin) has access to it. Is this possible through Group Policy?

The following article details how to set the Share and NTFS permissions for folder redirection. The same should be applicable to what you're doing. The article was written for Windows Server 2003 but should be applicable to any share, regardless of host OS.
