Create Mask for DOS Files and Directories
NewsShare NAS is a UNIX-based operating system. Although Windows/DOS
has a larger set of modes than UNIX specifies for permissions, all NewsShare
NAS files and directories are assigned a UNIX-format octal mask for
permissions.
UNIX permissions are defined as follows:
• The first digit (left-most) of the octal mask controls owner access
permissions.
• The second digit (middle) controls the group access permissions.
• The third digit (right-most) controls permissions for all other users.
• Within each digit, reading the bits from left to right, the bits stand for: read,
write, execute.
For example, the default create mask of 744 means that the owner can read,
write, and execute; group members and others can read only. The default
directory mask of 754 means that the owner can read, write, and execute; group
members can read and execute; others can read only.
