File Rights

This property page lets you assign the Novell^® NetWare^® file system rights required by users to access the application if it is located on a NetWare server. This page applies only to NetWare file system rights. Microsoft* Windows* file system rights cannot be assigned through Novell eDirectory^TM.

A user receives these NetWare file system rights when his or her User object is associated with the Application object, or when a Group, Organizational Unit, Organization, or Country object of which the user is a member is associated with the Application object. The rights are removed from the user when the object is no longer associated with the Application object.

The file rights you set up are not dependent on whether the user is actually using the application. The user has continual file rights from the time the Application object is associated with the user until the time the association is removed.

If two separate Application objects give file rights to the same file, directory, or volume and the user is unassociated with only one of them, then the user loses all rights even though the user might still be associated with the other Application object.

File Rights
The File Rights list displays all files, directories, and volumes to which rights will be given. When you select a file, directory, or volume, the rights that have been granted are displayed in the Rights box. You can grant or remove rights by checking or unchecking the appropriate boxes.

Add
Click Add, browse for and select the file, directory, or volume you want to add, then click OK to display it in the list.

Delete
Select the file, directory, or volume you want to delete from the list, then click Delete. Any users associated with the Application object will lose rights to the file, directory, or volume.

Rights
