Setting Access Privileges

You can change the access privileges to folders that you own on the file server.

Note: You can also set access privileges to items on your hard disk, then make them available
to others on your network using the built-in file sharing capabilities of your Macintosh. For
more information about file sharing, choose Help from the Finder’s Help menu.

“About Access Privileges” on page 9.

effect are See Folders and See Files; See Folders, See Files, and Make Changes; and Make
Changes.
