Jeff VMS "HELP" tells me that "SET PROTECTION" has been superceded by the "SET SECURITY" command. (We just transitioned from version 5 to version 7.) So, now instead of : $SET PROT=(W:RE) FOO.TXT I should say: $SET SECURITY/PROT=(W:RE) FOO.TXT to be up-to-date. However, in my LOGIN.COM I have the command: $SET PROT=(W:RE)/DEFAULT and I can't seem to think in just the right way (nor can I read the help just the right way) to suggest what the command should be. When I try: $SET PROT=(W:RE)/DEFAULT I am prompted for _Object: and I'm at a loss for the proper response. Please advise. Donald McEntee |
Donald ... Since many things in VMS have
protections, they combined them into one SET SECURITY
command. In your case the object is
"SECURITY_CLASS", or more simply : $SET SECURITY/PROT=(W:RE) Best of luck! Jeff Cameron
