HP CD-ROM Server User's Guide

6-12 Security Management
The CD-ROM server’s file system security rights are set up by
the NetWare Administrator, as detailed below:
1. Login as Admin, and start the NetWare Administrator.
2. Browse the SYS: volume by double clicking it. You will see all
the directories available in the CD-ROM server.
3. Select the directory or file for which you wish to set the access
rights to, and right click it.
4. Choose Details, and make the required changes.
The NetWare NDS access rights for the CD-ROM server can be
set using Security Equivalence, Group, Container, Organization
role, and User Objects as with any other NDS file server. There
is no difference between how you use NetWare Administrator to
set these access rights for a CD-ROM server, and how you would
set the access rights on an NDS file server.

then be granted to the folder and all subfolders.
The password is set using the
SMBPassword
entry in the access
control files in the Volumes folder. The following values are
valid:
