In a desperate attempt to correct this I'm trying to do this the right way now with groups and specific permissions. My problem was that in my first fix a few months ago I had set the share permissions for the groups I created but left the NTFS ones at their default. Now I'm going through and trying to correct it by opening up the shares and locking down the NTFS and was having issues where my test user was alternately not allowed to access what it should or being allowed to get at the things it shouldn't. It all seems to be working now though, I think part of my problem was not waiting for the changes in active directory to propagate and in making too many changes at once
I'll let the one server run as is for a week and if all is well apply the same rules to the next ones. Now I can get back to configured the new backup solution
