NWGRANT(8)

NAME
       nwgrant - Add Trustee Rights to a directory

SYNOPSIS
       nwgrant  [  -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P pass-
       word | -n ] [ -C ] [ -o object name ] [ -t  type  ]  [  -r
       rights ] directory

DESCRIPTION
       nwgrant  adds the specified bindery object with the corre-
       sponding 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 connec-
          tion 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.

       -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 spe-
          cialized applications.

       -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 is the sum of the following
          hexadecimal individual rights values:
              00 = no access
              01 = read access
              02 = write access
              04 = open access
              08 = create access
              10 = delete access
              20 = ownership access
              40 = search access
              80 = modify access

          for a possible total of "ff" for all rights.

       directory
          You must specify the directory  to  which  to  add  the
          object  as trustee. This has to be done in fully quali-
          fied NetWare notation.

          Example:

          nwgrant -o linus -t 1 -r ff 'data:home\linus'

          With this example, user linus is given  all  rights  to
          his  home  directory  on  the data volume. This example
          assumes the existence of the file $HOME/.nwclient.
