/sys$common/syshlp/helplib.hlb SHOW, PROTECTION, Example  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

  $ SHOW PROTECTION
    SYSTEM=RWED, OWNER=RWED, GROUP=RE, WORLD=NO ACCESS
  $ SET PROTECTION=(GROUP:RWED,WORLD:RE)/DEFAULT
  $ SHOW PROTECTION
    SYSTEM=RWED, OWNER=RWED, GROUP=RWED, WORLD=RE

      The SHOW PROTECTION command in this example requests a display
      of the current protection defaults and the user identifiers;
      the SET PROTECTION/DEFAULT command changes the file access
      allowed to other users in the same group and to miscellaneous
      system users. The next SHOW PROTECTION command shows the
      modified protection defaults.
