Setting CD-ROM Security on NetWare
When a CD-ROM volume is configured and mounted for the
first time, the NetWare group EVERYONE has access to it. If
desired, you can restrict access to a CD-ROM volume. This
comes in handy, for instance, when you have departments
that use CD-ROMs that are specific to their departmental
operations. Only users in those departments need access to
their CD-ROM volumes. Access rights to departmental CDs
are given only to authorized departmental users.
With DiscView PRO’s dynamic security feature, security
changes are enforced quickly. There is no need to dismount
CD-ROM volumes, or reboot the server or workstation.
Configure security through DiscView PRO only. Novell’s
NETADMIN, NWADMIN, and SYSCON trustee rights
do not work on Read Only media.
■ To authorize users:
1. On the DiscView PRO Map window, select the CD-ROM
volume for which you want to modify user access.
2. Right-click on the CD-ROM to display a pop-up menu.
Select Security. If you are running NetWare 3.x, the
dialog below displays. If you are running Netware 4.x, you
will see a slightly different Security dialog that shows
your NDS tree, but the concepts are the same as those
described here.
3. Click on the user or
group in the
Possible Users list
to be given CD-ROM
access. Select
multiple names by
holding down the
Ctrl key while
clicking on names.
4. Click on the Add
button, or drag and
drop names to the User List. The added names are
displayed in the User List.
5. Click on OK to save changes and
exit to the DiscView PRO Map
window.
