Managing the Shares Creating a Share 6 • Public: Enable all users to access the share. To make an NFS share world readable/writable, select this checkbox, and ensure the Read-Only checkbox is also deselected. To make an NFS share world readable, select this checkbox, and ensure the Read-Only checkbox is selected. • Read-Only: If the share is configured as a public share, allow the users read- only access to the share. Users can access and view the share but cannot write to the share. (For NFS shares, refer to the information stated in the Public field.) • DFS Root: Set the share to be a Microsoft DFS root. Note: The share must be set as a DFS root when it is created. You cannot set it as a DFS root after it is created or revert a DFS root share to be a regular share. When you set this option, the CIFS Default File Creation Attributes and Protocol checkboxes are greyed out as they are not relevant. Follow the steps in the topic "Adding a DFS Shared Folder" section on page105 to add shared folder links to the root. STEP 7 Set up the defaults for how file permissions are set when a file is created using CIFS via the following CIFS File Creation Attributes checkboxes: • Group Readable: Members of the group assigned to the file have read permission. The group is assigned during file creation. For files created via NFS, the owner can manually set the group permissions when the file is created and can edit them at a later time. For files created via CIFS, the group is automatically assigned as the owner's default group. This group cannot be edited at a later time. • Group Writable: Members of the group assigned to the file have write permission. The group is assigned during file creation. For files created via NFS, the owner can manually set the group permissions when the file is created and can edit them at a later time. For files created via CIFS, the group is automatically assigned as the owner's default group. This group cannot be edited at a later time. • Everyone Readable: All authenticated users can view the file. • Everyone Writable: All authenticated users have write permission to the file. STEP 8 From the Options field, set the Allow users to delete or rename other users' files and folders checkbox as required. This field determines whether users who are assigned to a share can delete or rename files or folders within that share that they do not own. It is important to consider interoperability with applications such as MS Word 2007 and Photoshop. For example, if this field is not selected and you gave a user write permissions to a file and that user tried to open, edit, and save the file, the save would fail due to the fact that Word sets up a temporary file and Cisco Small Business NSS2000 Series Administration Guide 99
