Exchange Service Privileges

Exchange service privileges are divided into several levels of file-system access.
However, unless you grant the Access All Files... privilege, remote users will be
able to access only the files for which they have file-system access privileges.

Mac OS X Users are granted the same file-system access privileges that are
assigned to their Mac OS X user profile in your computer’s operating system.

Timbuktu Users, Ask for Permission Users, and Guest Users have the access
privileges assigned to the first administrator-level user on your computer.

The Access All Files... privilege overrides Mac OS X file-system access privileges
and allows access to your entire file system.

Use Exchange to Copy Files to Your Computer

Allows the remote user to transfer files to your computer, but not to copy or delete
files from your computer.

Use Exchange to Copy Files from Your Computer

Allows the remote user to transfer files from your computer, but not to copy files
to your computer or delete files from your computer.

Use Exchange to Remove Files from Your Computer

Allows the remote user to delete files from your computer, but not to copy files to
or from your computer.

Use Exchange to Access All Files on Your Computer

Grants the remote user full access to the file system on your computer. Users with
this privilege are not limited to accessing only the files associated with their OS-
level user profile.

Note, however, that the Access All Files... option grants read-only access to your
file system. To allow the remote user to copy files to and from your computer and
delete files, you must assign additional Exchange privileges.

By default, this option is not selected.

Control Service Privileges

The Control service includes only one level of access privileges. However, you may
also assign the Lock Out... and Blank... privileges, which enable secure screen
