NAME

nwgrant - Add Trustee Rights to a directory

SYNOPSIS

nwgrant [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -o object name | -O object id ] [ -t type ] [ -r rights ] file/directory

DESCRIPTION

nwgrant adds the specified bindery object with the corresponding trustee rights to the directory.

nwgrant looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user name and possibly a password. See nwclient(5) for more information. Please note that the access permissions of $HOME/.nwclient MUST be 600 for security reasons.

OPTIONS

-h

-h is used to print out a short help text.

-S server

server is the name of the server you want to use.

-U user

user is the user name to use for login.

-P password

password is the password to use for login. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection to the server, nwgrant prompts for a password.

-n

-n should be given if no password is required for the login.

-C

By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off this conversion by -C.

-o object name

The name of the object to be added as trustee.

-O object id

The id of the object to be added as trustee.

-t object type

The type of the object. Object type must be specified as a decimal value. Common values are 1 for user objects, 2 for group objects and 3 for print queues. Other values are allowed, but are usually used for specialized applications. If you do not specify object type, object name is taken as NDS name.

-r rights

You must tell nwgrant which rights it should grant to the bindery object. The new rights for the object is specified by rights, which can be either a hexadecimal number representing the sum of all the individual rights to be granted or a string containing characters representing each right. Characters within the brackets may be in any order and in either case. Spaces are allowed between the brackets - in which case the entire string should be quoted. Hexadecimal and character values for the rights are shown in this table:

    00 = no access
    01 = read access        = R
    02 = write access       = W
    08 = create access      = C
    10 = delete access      = E
    20 = ownership access   = A
    40 = search access      = F
    80 = modify access      = M
   100 = supervisory access = S
for a possible total of "1fb" or "[SRWCEMFA]" for all rights.

file/directory

You must specify the directory to which to add the object as trustee. This has to be done in fully qualified NetWare notation.
Example:
nwgrant -S NWSERVER -o linus -t 1 -r fb 'data:home\linus'
With this example, user linus is given all rights except supervisory to his home directory on the data volume. This example assumes the existence of the file $HOME/.nwclient.
nwgrant -o linus -t 1 -r fb /home/linus/ncpfs/data/home/linus
With this example, user linus is given all rights except supervisory to his home directory on the data volume. This example assumes that NWSERVER is already mounted on /home/linus/ncpfs mountpoint.

nwgrant was written by Volker Lendecke with the corresponding NetWare utility in mind. See the Changes file of ncpfs for other contributors.
