  Benefits of the solution:
  MMC permissions tab would show permissions on share correctly.
  Snapshots will be traversed properly from client.
  
  Work Around:
  None
  
  Problem trigger:
  The MMC permissions problem can happen in case of viewing
  permissions from MMC permissions tab for a share. Snapshot
  traversal would show problems from client when a sub-directory
  within sub-directory is deleted on the actual filesystem and the
  same is tried for access in snapshot directory.
