I agree your design.
I'll provide 'mcf.auth.directoryCount' param. If null or 0, then the filtering by share, document. If 1, then the filtering by share, direcory_0, document. If 2, then the filtering by share, direcory_0, direcory_1, document.

The answer of your question is B, not A.
The permissions of the document is inherited from the one of y folder, the permissions of y folder is inherited from the one of x folder.

I'll write the version2 patch this/next week.

> Windows server checks the access permission of a share folder and the security permission of a file document when we access a file via network.
> As far as I look into that, Windows does not take subfolder's security permissions into account.
> There is a case that someone who is admin wants to configure 'Everyone' for 'share folders' and configure each access permissions for 'sub folders'.
> E.g. \\ShareFolder\Admin --> Admin folder for administrative user,  \\ShareFolder\Sales  --> Sales folder for sales user.
> The users put files in 'sub folders', then the permission of these files will be inherited from the permission of 'sub folders'.
> I'd like to support access permissions for 'sub folders' in jcifs/solr connector.
> In general, we expect file's permission to be inherited from parent folder.
> So I want to manage parent's security by providing new [allow|deny]_token fields.
