User Types
On a UnixWare NetWare Services server, three
different types of users can work with files
and directories in the file system:
-
UnixWare users have a UnixWare user account and
not a NetWare user account. These users cannot
access a NetWare server but can manage a
NetWare server from the UnixWare
scoadmin(1M)
utility.
-
NetWare users have a
NetWare user account and do not have an
explicit UnixWare user account.
-
Hybrid users have both NetWare and UnixWare user
accounts. These are the users who want to
maintain access to the same files regardless of
whether they are logged in to a NetWare
account or a UnixWare account.
Regardless of your user type (unless you are
a hybrid user), when using NetWare Services to
access files and directories, it is strongly recommeded
that all users be set up as
hybrid users. Otherwise, UnixWare users can access and
modify UnixWare files as if they owned them.
