1983.0. "SMU NOT WORKING FOR ONE USER" by NEWOA::WILSON_S () Thu Dec 17 1992 11:17

    Hi,
    
    There appears to be problem using SMU to one particular user.  I've checked
    the file protection
    
    A1.DIR;1             [CRITCHLOW]           (RWE,RWE,RE,R)
    
    DOC0.DIR;1           [CRITCHLOW]           (RWE,RWE,RE,E)
    (IDENTIFIER=[HFJ,WILSON_S],ACCESS=READ+WRITE+DELETE+CONTROL)
    (IDENTIFIER=[HFJ,WILSON_S],OPTIONS=DEFAULT,ACCESS=READ+WRITE+DELETE+CONTROL)
    
     
    but still get "You have not been granted mail access by this user",
    even though the GMA shows
    
                                              Process   Send
      User or Group                           Mail      Mail   Control
    
      WILSON_S                                 Y         Y      Y
    
    
    So what have I missed?

    Hi,
    
    Some things to check:
    
    1. Can you can the drawer to your File Cabinet? (Option ADR from the
       FC DRM menu)? Is so type R from the DRM menu and see what drawer
       access you have - you should have at least DELETE access.
    
    2. A common problem is lack of World execute access on the directory
       chain. As the other user (CRITCHLOW) go to the FC DRM menu and
       select the MAIN drawer. Type R to read. If this is a problem then
       it will be shown on the drawer report.
    
    3. From DCL check the access to user CRITCHLOW's MAIL_ACCESS.DAT file.
    
    Cheers

1983.2WORLD ACCESS NECESSARY?NEWOA::WILSON_SFri Dec 18 1992 11:1144
    Stuart,
    
    Thanks for the information.
    
    I've modified CRITCHLOW's top level directory to have World Execute and
    it's working.  What I don't understand is that why my WILSON_S.DIR does
    not have any world access, but others can use SMU to my account without
    a problem.
    
    Drawer name         MAIN
    
    Description
    
    Directory           DISK$USER1:[WILSON_S.A1]
    
    You have CONTROL access to the drawer
    
    Drawer is shared with other users
    
    WARNING - The following directories do not have W:E access:
    
    DISK$USER1:[000000]WILSON_S.DIR
    
    Drawer is located on this system
    
    Drawer type is ADVANCED SHARED
                    
    
                        List of users who may access the drawer
                        =======================================
    
                            Shared
    User or Group          VMS Acct    Read     Create    Delete  Control

    TILLEY_F                           Y         Y         Y        Y
    
    Previous to adding W:E I could not add CRITCHLOW's drawer. 
    
    CRITCHLOW's MAIL_ACCESS.DAT file is empty.

1983.3Group access?IOSG::MAURICEIs there life on IOSG?Fri Dec 18 1992 15:459
    Hi Sarah,
    
    Looking at .0 I see that your directories and files tend to have group
    access, so if the other users are in the same UIC group they will have
    no problem. Is this the case?
    
    Cheers
