NWGRANT(8)			    nwgrant			    NWGRANT(8)

NAME
       nwgrant - Add Trustee Rights to a directory

SYNOPSIS
       nwgrant [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C
       ] [ -o object name ] [ -t type ] [ -r rights ] file/directory

DESCRIPTION
       nwgrant adds  the  specified  bindery  object  with  the	 corresponding
       trustee rights to the directory.

       nwgrant looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a user
       name and possibly a password. See  nwclient(5)  for  more  information.
       Please  note that the access permissions of $HOME/.nwclient MUST be 600
       for security reasons.

OPTIONS
       -h
	  -h is used to print out a short help text.

       -S server
	  server is the name of the server you want to use.

       -U user
	  user is the user name to use for login.

       -P password
	  password is the password to use for login. If neither -n nor -P  are
	  given,  and  the  user has no open connection to the server, nwgrant
	  prompts for a password.

       -n
	  -n should be given if no password is required for the login.

       -C
	  By default, passwords are converted to  uppercase  before  they  are
	  sent	to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn
	  off this conversion by -C.

       -o object name
	  The name of the object to be added as trustee.

       -t object type
	  The type of the object.  Object type must be specified as a  decimal
	  value. Common values are 1 for user objects, 2 for group objects and
	  3 for print queues. Other values are allowed, but are	 usually  used
	  for  specialized  applications.  If  you do not specify object type,
	  object name is taken as NDS name.

       -r rights
	  You must tell nwgrant which rights it should grant  to  the  bindery
	  object.  The new rights for the object is specified by rights, which
	  can be either a hexadecimal number representing the sum of  all  the
	  individual  rights  to  be granted or a string containing characters
	  representing each right.  If rights are represented in string format
	  then	the  string  must be bounded with square brackets.  Characters
	  within the brackets may be in any order and in either case.	Spaces
	  are  allowed	between the brackets - in which case the entire string
	  should be quoted.  Hexadecimal and character values for  the	rights
	  are shown in this table:

	      00 = no access
	      01 = read access	      = R
	      02 = write access	      = W
	      08 = create access      = C
	      10 = delete access      = E
	      20 = ownership access   = A
	      40 = search access      = F
	      80 = modify access      = M
	     100 = supervisory access = S

	  for a possible total of "1fb" or "[SRWCEMFA]" for all rights.

       file/directory
	  You  must  specify  the  directory  to  which	 to  add the object as
	  trustee. This has to be done in fully qualified NetWare notation.

	  Example:

	  nwgrant -S NWSERVER -o linus -t 1 -r fb 'data:home\linus'

	  With this example, user linus is given all rights except supervisory
	  to  his  home directory on the data volume. This example assumes the
	  existence of the file $HOME/.nwclient.

	  nwgrant -o linus -t 1 -r fb /home/linus/ncpfs/data/home/linus

	  With this example, user linus is given all rights except supervisory
	  to  his home directory on the data volume. This example assumes that
	  NWSERVER is already mounted on /home/linus/ncpfs mountpoint.

AUTHORS
       nwgrant was written by Volker Lendecke with the	corresponding  NetWare
       utility in mind. See the Changes file of ncpfs for other contributors.
