Setting Security Permissions
Setting Security Permissions
The last step in setting up security for your DNP system is to set permissions for the
Aurora Edit folders and bins. You again use your security schema to determine
permissions for users and groups.
You can set all permissions from one Aurora Edit machine. You need to set permissions
in three different places—in the V:\ directory, in Aurora Edit options, and in the Aurora
Edit bins.
You must log in as a Domain Administrator to set security permissions.
Setting Initial Shared Volume Permissions
This task assures a uniform starting point in setting volume permissions, essentially
setting the secure volume’s permissions to be identical to either an SNFS volume that
does not implement Windows Security, or a default NTFS volume.
To set shared volume permissions:
1. Open a cmd window, switch to the V: drive, and type the following:
cacls V:\* /T /G Everyone:F
2. In Windows Explorer, right-click on the V: drive and select
Properties
.
3. Click the
Security
tab.
4. If necessary, add the user
Everyone
and allow
Full Control
.
5. Click
Advanced...
and select
Replace permission entries on all child objects with entries
shown here that apply to child objects
.
6. Click
OK
and click
Yes
in response to the dialog
This will remove explicitly defined
permissions... Do you wish to continue?
7. Click
OK
to exit the Properties window.
Setting High Level Shared Volume Permissions
Permissions on the V:\ folders are set using Windows Explorer. First you add the
group(s) to the drive and then set security permissions for that group.
To set permissions on the V:\ folders:
1. In Windows Explorer, navigate to the V:\ drive.
2. Right-click on the desired folder and select
Properties
.
a. Uncheck
Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object
.
