I just installed the new version of 3.0. The question I have has to do with security access: As in Novel when you set the security attributes, the user can view and work from his directory down. But he/she can not move upstream to look into directories above his or hers. Can this be done with FreeBSD? If so what is the command and could you give me instructions on how to do it. My problem is, my users are going into other users directories. I have the attributes setup so they can not write or erase, but they are playing in system areas as well as other areas that they do not need access to even view. So in other words, I want them to be able to get into their homepage files and to have the ability to have their files viewed from the net, but I want them contained into their /home/directory and not able to snoop, in directories above theirs. Advance warning, I am still a novice in the great world of FreeBSD. thanks Morris Allen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
