136.0. "Setting up inbound security on NT workstation" by PCBUOA::skipg.ako.dec.com::SkipGaede () Tue Feb 25 1997 13:49

has security been implemented on this first release of PW32 when 
installed on an NT workstation or server? I can define user names and 
passwords, but a dir of MYPC:: from a VAX gives me the contents of my 
SYSTEM32 directory.

Please let me know what I'm doing wrong...

Thanks,
Skip

I found the problem: I had mistakenly tried to install the older 
version of PW 4.1, and some of the older components were causing 
problems.

However, I still have a security-related question: Is it possible to 
setup file level security? The audit log shows that all of the file 
accesses are being made by "SYSTEM" with no carryover of the actual 
user who requested the data (impersonization). So, basically, there's 
no way to map incoming usernames/passwords to local NT Accounts 
(which could be granted access on a per object basis), correct?

Thanks,
Skip
