Problem:
Who can read and write in the course locker? What are the read-write
permssions that WolfWare sets?
Solution:
In AFS, permissions are set on directories (folders), not individual files
(rl=read, rlidwk=write, rlidwka=administer). The following are the default
settings for the course and section lockers' /www directories.
Course: /afs/eos/courses/xxx/xxxyyy/www/ (world read, sysadmin write,
edit by instructors and support staff via WolfWare Toolbox->Edit WWW
Boilerplate)
Common: /afs/eos/courses/xxx/xxxyyy/common/www/ (world read, course
instructors and support staffs write)
Section (both lab and lecture):
/afs/eos/courses/xxx/xxxyyy/lec/zzz/www/ (world read, section
instructor and support staff write)
Section WRAP-protected directory (both lab and lecture):
/afs/eos/courses/xxx/xxxyyy/lec/zzz/www/wrap/ (support staff read and
write). Can be altered via WolfWare Toolbox ->Configure WRAP Access to
open read access to all NCSU, all course, selected sections, or one
section only. Additional individual users with realm IDs can also be
given read access.
