AXIS StorPoint CD Token Ring - User’s Manual 55
Access Control
The way you manage security in NetWare depends on the mode you are using:
• NDS mode
• Bindery mode without user authentication
• Bindery mode with user authentication
StorPoint CD acts as a normal NetWare file server, which means that you use
standard procedures such as NWAdmin, SYSCON and Filer for handling
security.
Note:
You cannot set up access restrictions for the NetWare environment via the
StorPoint CD Web interface.
Access Restrictions in
NetWare NDS
In NetWare, access rights for users in bindery mode is separate from users
accessing StorPoint CD in NDS mode. For this reason, we recommend that you
disable bindery mode after you have successfully installed StorPoint CD in NDS
and thus allow users to log on in NDS mode only.
Note:
If NDS mode is not functioning, you can always access StorPoint CD in
bindery mode by logging in as Supervisor. This is true even if you have
disabled bindery mode.
Default Access Rights The default access rights protect all the system files, which means that only users
with Supervisor privileges on StorPoint CD have access to those files. However,
all users logged into NDS can access the discs. These access rights are set up by
the following trustee assignments:
• The Supervisor right from the NDS tree is inherited to all the volumes on
StorPoint CD. All users who have Supervisor privileges in the context in
which StorPoint CD was installed will also have Supervisor privileges on the
StorPoint CD.
• The root of the SYS volume has [Public] as trustee, with File Scan, Read,
Write, Create, Modify and Erase rights.
• The System folder has all rights, except Supervisor, filtered. Thus all system
files are effectively protected from normal users.
Notes:
If the default security is satisfactory to your system, simply do not change
anything.
You can change the default trustee assignments using NWAdmin.
