/MODE=n
Optional. Default: 755 (provides the following protection for owner, group, and
world: rwx-rx-rx).
Specifies a UNIX protection mask for a new directory.
Specify octal values in the following order: user, group, others. The values are:
• 0 — No access
• 1 — Execute access
• 2 — Write access
• 3 — Write and execute access
• 4 — Read access
• 5 — Read and execute access
• 6 — Read and write access
• 7 — Read, write, and execute access
For example, /MODE=751 provides:
User Read, write, and execute access 7 rwx
Group Read and execute access 5 rx
Other Execute access 1 x
/UID=n
Optional. Default: Determined with CREATE DIRECTORY.
Selects a specific entry in the proxy database to determine the ownership of the
UNIX file.
In the proxy database:
• UID and GID fields identify UNIX ownership.
• User name field identifies OpenVMS ownership.
If you want to access an entry in the proxy database without a unique UID and
user name combination, you might need to specify the /HOST qualifier. For
example, the same UID and user name combination could appear on multiple
hosts.
You can use the /UID qualifier in any combination with the /HOST and
/USER_NAME qualifiers. However, if you do not have SYSPRV or BYPASS
privilege, the values you specify must correspond to the values for your user
name in the proxy database.
/USER_NAME=vms_user_name
Optional. Default: None.
Selects a specific entry in the proxy database to determine the ownership of the
UNIX file.
The UID and GID fields in this entry establish the file’s UNIX identity, while the
user name field provides the OpenVMS ownership.
If you want to access an entry in the proxy database without a unique UID and
user name combination, you might need to specify the /HOST qualifier. For
example, the same UID and user name combination could appear on multiple
hosts.
