A. By default, all users in the Exchange Organization can create top-level Public Folders; however, you can change the default with the Active Directory Service Interfaces (ADSI) Edit tool, which is part of the Windows 2000 Support Tools (in the supporttools folder on the CD-ROM):
Start the ADSI Edit utility (Start, Programs, Windows 2000 Support Tools, Tools, ADSI Edit).
Double-click Configuration Container.
Under the container, expand CN=Configuration, CN=Services, CN=Microsoft Exchange.
Right-click your organizational name's container, and select Properties.
Select the Security tab.
Click here to view imageClick Advanced.
On the Permissions tab, find the entry with a name of Everyone and a permission of "Create top level public folder."
Select the Deny check box.
Click OK to exit all the dialog boxes.
Close the ADSI Edit utility.
