Managing the NetWare Services File System
File Access Control
Keep these rules for granting rights in mind:
• The File Scan right is given only if the directory has r and x permissions. In the
parent directory, a user must have the x permission to access a subdirectory and
r and x permissions to have any NetWare rights.
• The Modify right is given only if the user is the owner of the file and the parent
directory has the Create right (HP-UX permission bits rwx are set in the parent
directory).
• The Supervisor and Access Control rights are never granted.
• The Erase right is removed if the user is not the owner of the file or directory and
the parent directory has the HP-UX sticky permission bit.
