1  Protection
   Volume and file protection is specified as follows:

        (SYSTEM:RWED,OWNER:RWED,GROUP:RWED,WORLD:RWED)

   There are four categories of protection: one for system
   processes, one for the owner of the file, one for other members
   of the owner's group, and one for members of other groups. For
   each category, any combination of four different types of access
   may be specified:

      R    read access
      W    write access
      E    execute access (for execution of images)
      D    delete access

   If you want to deny all access to a category, you must specify
   the category name without a colon, for example:

        /PROTECTION=(OWNER:RWE,GROUP,WORLD)

   For complete information on setting protections, see the HP OpenVMS
   Guide to System Security.
 

2  Example

 $ DIRECTORY/PROTECTION JUNE_REPORT.LIS
 Directory DISK1:[J_BROWN]

  JUNE_REPORT.LIS;1          (RWED,RWED,RE,)

     In this example, the user entered the DIRECTORY/PROTECTION
     command to see what the protection is for the file JUNE_
     REPORT.LIS. Users in the system and owner categories have read,
     write, execute, and delete access, users in the group category
     have read and execute access, and users in the world category
     have no access to this file.
