Do we have an intranet site only accessible via DECnet? I dont put any

That's what I'm trying to do with the "Dropbox" on CHIMPY:: - anyone can
add or view files, but not delete or edit them. Just not sure what the
correct security setting for the directory should be...


Is this type of security option on a dir possible? I can't figure out how
to set it up, but somebody amongst you gurus must know :)



You can set RWE for world set on the directory by default, but have a
script periodically set all files to w:RE only.   There's probably a better
way to do it, though.


That sounds pretty, well, yuck.


I prefer the "outside the box" approach to solving problems. ;)   Weird > elegant in my book usually.

Not that I have given it much thought you would likely be able to achieve
this sort of environment using ACLs.   I recommend checking out the VMS
security manual.

Do ACLs like that carry over DECnet?   I seem to recall Brian S. saying they don't.


Regards, Tim.
