Thanks for that hint. I have an issue now regarding rights of system users. Now they have delete rights from Root directory. What needs to be done to avert this. I want system user be able to only modify his folders and contents.

Double-click on My Computer, right-click on the root-drive in question and select properties and then select the security tab. Highlight the Users group [ ex: Users(Servername\Users) ] ensure that only the Special Permission box has a checkmark in it. Then click on the Advanced button and this will bring you to the permission tab where you can specify the rights you wish your users to have on the root drive.

I think i misled you, after opening the webpage as follows "http://<report_server _ip>/reports " I get "HOME' page. Here i am creating folders. My intention is to create separate directories in the name of different teams first. Then provide complete access to the team within their folder. One team should not delete the folder created for another team from the home page. currently for all report server users i have given "System user" access through site SITE SETTING IN THE HOME PAGE. After clicking on the SITE SETTINGS I selected configure site wide security and provided "system user" rights to all report server users. Plus all users will have "folder view" rights on the HOME folder. this is provided through HOME PAGE, PROPERTIES, SECURITY, NEW ROLE ASSIGNMENT.
