NTFS hasn't got the same security system as UFS. Just because you can logon to a filesystem doesn't mean you have any rights. Just because you can write a file doesn't mean you can append. On NTFS one can allow per person or per group to list, view, read, create or modify (append) a file. And that for multiple users and multiple groups. -- Best regards/Met vriendelijke groet, Alex P.S.
