Managing permissions

To help you manage security, Security Explorer® is organized into modules, which organize the permissions that are available to manage. First, click the module button that matches the permissions you want to manage. For ease of use, each module functions similarly, although menu choices and buttons may vary from module to module.

 
* 
NOTE: This chapter covers managing permissions. While the permissions vary from module to module, the process is basically the same, so several modules are covered in this chapter. Other functions in Security Explorer, including the Task Management and Group and User Management modules, are covered in the Managing security and Managing objects chapters.

Viewing permissions

To view permissions

2
Open the Browse tab.
–OR-
Open the Tasks tab, and click View Permissions.
 
* 
NOTE: The Tasks tab is hidden by default. To display the Tasks tab, select View | Tasks tab.
3
Select an item in the Navigation pane. The location displays in the Path box. The Objects pane displays objects along with the extended information. Depending on how far you drill down in the navigation tree, you may need to select an object in the Objects pane to view permissions.
4
If necessary, select an object in the Objects pane. The Permissions pane displays permissions for the selected object. The Owner box displays the user or group that owns the selected object.
 
* 
TIP: If you know the path to the permissions you need, type the path, in either drive letter notation or UNC pathname format, in the Path box, and click Go.
NOTE: SharePoint Security module only. To add a URL to the Favorites list, type the URL in the Path box, and click Go.

In the Permissions pane, icons next to each account name indicate the type of user or group. Domain users and disabled users can be highlighted if the option is set on the Tools | Options | View tab. See Setting view options.
5
Set options for the displayed permissions. See Using the Permissions pane.

Granting permissions

You can grant permissions to users and groups without affecting any other user's permissions. First, choose the permissions to grant, and select a user or group. You can grant different permissions for several users and groups with one operation. In the NTFS Security module, you can create a schedule to temporarily grant a permission.

The type of permission granted depends on the selected module. For example, if you want to grant permissions for a printer, open the Printer Security module.

 
* 
NOTE: For NetApp Clustered mode, to see changes after a permission action on folders and shares, you must refresh the tree in the Navigation pane.
NOTE: To customize the grant process in the NTFS module, you can set options for modifying permissions. See Setting advanced options.

There are two methods for granting permissions:

•
Using the Browse tab to grant permissions
