Overview - Accessing Registry Objects
This topic describes the permissions that apply to objects in the registry. Because the permissions that are granted are based on the way the registry database is structured, this topic first briefly describes the structure of the registry database. It then describes the permissions for each object in the registry database, the registry ACL managers, and the initial registry ACLs.
Both dcecp and the acl_edit command have functions for creating, modifying, and deleting ACL entries for registry objects. See each command's reference page in the OSF DCE Command Reference for a description of the operations it performs on ACL entries.
