Š

Erase:

 Grants the right to delete the directory or file.

Š

Create:

 For a directory, grants the right to create new files and directories in the 

directory. For a file, grants the right to create a file and to salvage a file after it has been 
deleted.

Š

Modify:

 Grants the right to change the attributes or name of the directory or file, but does 

not grant the right to change its contents (changing the contents requires the Write right).

Š

File Scan:

 Grants the right to view directory and file names in the file system structure, 

including the directory structure from that file to the root directory.

Š

Access Control:

 Grants the right to add and remove trustees for directories and files and 

modify their trustee assignments and Inherited Rights Filters.

Š

Supervisor:

 Grants all rights to the directory or file and any subordinate items. The 

Supervisor right can’t be blocked by an Inherited Rights Filter. Users with this right can 
grant or deny other users rights to the directory or file.

4

To see a list of trustees for subfolders of the currently selected folder, click View Trustees 
Below Directory. 

A list of all the users and their rights to each subfolder appears. You can modify or remove 
rights from this list. 

5

To view a trustee’s current effective rights (taking into account the Inheritance filter), right-
click a trustee name, then click Current Effective Rights.

Users can receive rights in a number of ways, such as explicit trustee assignments, inheritance, 
and security equivalence. Rights can also be limited by Inherited Rights Filters and changed 
or revoked by lower trustee assignments. The net result of all these actions (the rights a user 
can employ) are called 

effective rights

.

6

To view a trustee’s properties (such as if they have the rights to modify inherited rights at this 
level), right-click a trustee name, then click Properties. 

7

Click Apply, then click OK when you are finished modifying inherited rights and filters.

Viewing Object Properties

The Object Properties utility lets you view the property pages (Folder Information and Novell 
Rights) for a selected object. The property pages let you see information and statistics about that 
object. If you have sufficient rights, you can set attributes for that object.

1

Click   > Novell Utilities > Object Properties.

2

Select the object you want to see the properties for, then click OK.

3

On the Folder Information page, you can view the owner of the folder, the name spaces 
enabled on the folder, the amount of disk space available to you, the date the folder was 
created, updated, and archived, and any attributes set on the folder.
