Permissions for Creating a Directory

· Insert permission to the parent of the new directory.

· Write permission to the clearinghouse that stores the master replica of the new directory.

· The server principal for the server system where you enter the DCE control program's (dcecp) directory create command must have read and insert permissions to the parent directory of the new directory.

If the server is included in the server authorization group subsys/dce/cds-servers, these permissions should already be in place. If in doubt, use the dcecp program's acl show command on the parent directory to verify that the server principal has the appropriate permissions. (See the OSF DCE Command Reference for complete information on arguments to the acl show command.)
