ALLOW
This command adds records to NetBase's security directory, thus granting a remote user or a group
of remote users the specified access to files. You can open up or restrict access to any set of files
existing on the specified system. This command requires SYSTEM MANAGER (SM) capability.
The ALLOW command writes a security record to NetBase's security directory. Before NetBase's
remote server process allows a file to be opened, it checks the security directory to see what kind of
access is allowed for the specified user. If the access mode requested by the user is consistent with
the type of access granted by the ALLOW command, access is permitted.
