Permissions 1.11 (Content plug-in)

[Lefteous]

it handles files on a network drive

Yes.

t handles folders on a network drive

Yes.

it does not handle the sec-prop of the whole share for itself

No these are two different animals.

I tried to use the plugin with "Wdx Info Packer"

Please ask in the appropriate thread.

Thanks for the answers. Improved WDXInfoPacker is under testing ..

Permissions can be used to find out if the current user is allowed to read, write or execute a certain file or directory. ...

My knowledge about permissions and groups and security is not the best one - so my next question.

Situation:
On our NTFS-share we have no "personal permissions" for the users, but we use groups: We have group "writer" and group "reader", and users are member of these groups.

Today I tested "Permissions" on the PC of a user who is in the "reader" group - and in all folders and files where this group has no writing-permissions the plugin shows: "Write permission: yes"

Why? Is it the difference between Group and user? Is it my problem ...??

Hi Lefteous.

When i saw this thread, i thought it might be interesting to try it out. Except from the use in the multirename tool though, i don't understand how i can use it to view and alter permissions. Its my first experience with WDX plugins so can you give me some hints please?

Thanx.

how i can use it to view and alter permissions

Permissions just supports displaying permissions for the current user. Altering permissions is not supported.
Please take a look at our wiki or the TC help file how to use content plug-ins.

I got it, thanx. It's a nice plugin. Might be useful in several cases (admin mainly).

Plugin updated to 1.11. Crash should be fixed.

Thanks. It works.

What am I doing wrong?

I do a folder search in .. \Total Commander with Write = NO

in theory I should at least see file TOTALCMD64.EXE, because it is running now - but it doesn't find anything

It is for file system permissions. Try to run it in for example "c:\Program Files" and you will see...
