Services for Macintosh: Differences in Permissions Dialogs

This article was previously published under Q108237

The permissions dialog box for a Macintosh volume on a Windows NT Advanced Server machine, and the Sharing dialog box on a Macintosh are similar, but not exactly the same. The column for See Folders and See Files have been reversed on the Windows NT Advanced Server dialog box. They appear as follows:

Macintosh:

                           See Folders  See Files  Make Changes

Owner      ________________     X            X          X
User/Group ________________     X            X          X

           Everyone             X            X          X
		

Windows NTAS:

                           See Files   See Folders Make Changes

Owner      ________________   X            X           X
Primary
Group      ________________   X            X           X
Everyone:                     X            X
		

There is no functional difference in the two dialog boxes.
