Permissions problem

[rscott]

I seemed to have done something stupid and I can't figure out how to fix it (or if it can be fixed).

What I did was essentially this:

$ cm acl -user=all -denied=+chgperm br:/main/blah

What this has done is to deny everyone the ability to change the permissions on this branch. The output of showacl is:

$ cm sa br:/main/blah
ACL: 81612
User        Permission       Allowed  Denied  InheritedFrom  
ALL USERS   all              Yes              repserver:LSRDC2:8084
ALL USERS   chgperm                   Yes     --             

So, it seems I cannot regain the ability to control permissions on this branch. Is there some way that this can be undone?

Thanks.

Randy.

Hi Randy,

hmm, denied, and ALL users.. this is some dangerous combination .

OK, set your user as the owner of your repserver, and you will be able to do teh changes.

example code:

cm sto -user=miller_Admin repserver:localhost:8084

hope it helps,

Miller
