Initial ACLs for Objects and Containers

Initial ACL entries and the ACL that contains them are applied automatically when an object is created. The entries can be modified at any time with the DCE control program. The types of DCE ACLs used as Initial ACLs for containers and objects are as follows:

· The Initial Container ACL determines the default ACL for containers created within a container. For example, the file system Initial Container ACL for a directory specifies the default ACL for subdirectories created within that directory.

· The Initial Object ACL determines the default for objects created within a container. For example, the file system Initial Object ACL for a directory specifies the default ACL for files created within that directory.
