How do a make a file permanent read/write?

I have a file shared on the server and when someone accesses it it changes the ownership to them and makes the file read-only to everyone else (that person uses XP). I want to make it permanent read/write. What is the command to do this in terminal?

If the file is in a share point managed by the server you will need to use 'Server Admin.app' to set up the ACL's.

  • How can I make a file not read only? Using LV6.0, I have tried the Access Rights VI w/o luck.

    I am talking about any file in windows 98 that has the read only box checked when I look at the properties of the file from Windows Explorer. I can can get rid of the check from the properties box, but I want to do it programmaticaly in LabView.

    Hi,
    Wire in '448' to the 'New Permissions' of the Access Rights VI. This will set the file as readable, writable and executable. I just tried this (on WinNT, though).
    The 'permissions' parameter is a 16-bit integer where the least 9 bits are used. Of these, for Windows, bits 8, 9, and 10 (0-indexed) are important (i.e. if these are set = integer 448). See online Help for full details.
    Hope this helps,

  • How do I make screen arrangement permanent?

    How do I make screen arrangement permanent?  I set it in system preferences -> arrangement tab, but it switches back after a reboot.  I have 3 external monitors.  One being driven by the DVI port and the other two by two USB display adapters (Display Link with latest drivers installed).  I have the DVI monitor in the middle and the two USB monitors on both sides.

    Here is a reply I posted about Dual Monitor problems on another thread, whereby Mountain Lion forgets the arrangment of the monitors, I wonder if a similar approach may work with your particular case?
    Possible Solution.... needs testing, but initial trial has been successful. Does this work for anyone else?
    There are two .plist files I have identified which record the screen arrangement:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist     (top level library, not user library)
    ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.windowserver.FE******-****-****-****-**********2E.plist
        (user library, where *** are unique code) I think the first drives the system arrangment (e.g., login window at startup etc), and the second is a user's own setup.
    I modified the screen and menu arrangement through System Preferences, which modified file (1).
    Using a text editor I copied and pasted everything into a new blank document and saved as com.apple.windowserver.plistthen duplicated the file and named it as per file (2). *even though there were some minor differences.
    I backed up and deleted the windowserver plists from both the system and user preference (ByHost) folders, including the lockfiles.
    Moved my new documents into their respective folders and rebooted... windows appeared where they were supposed to. (I should mention that I moved the screen and menu arrangement back to the 'wrong' way first, which showed me that the files had indeed altered the arrangement).
    The question is - will this now hold?
    Perhaps locking the file / changing the permissions to prevent the system updating it might help IF the problem reoccurs?

  • HT4527 I transferred my library to a new laptop and everything appeared on the screen. I turned off the old computer and the library disappeared. How can I make it a permanent transfer as my old computer is being scrapped. Thanks

    Hello Terryfrank,
    Congratulations on your new laptop!  Also, thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with transferring your iTunes Library to your new computer. 
    I notice that you are coming from the article “iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer,” and it sounds like you might have used the Home Sharing method outlined in that article. 
    With Home Sharing, you can stream content from another computer, and it sounds like that is how you have it currently set up.  The last step is to import the content to your new computer.  Use these steps on the new computer (while the old computer is on) to import the music to your new computer’s hard drive:
    Once your new computer sees the Home Share from your old computer, click that Home Share on the left side of iTunes on your new computer.
    Select the content in the Home Share that you want to transfer to your iTunes library on your new computer, or choose Edit > Select All to choose all of it. Then, click the Import button in the bottom-right corner of iTunes.
    Wait for the content to finish transferring.
    Additionally, if you want to transfer your playlists, you can export them from the old computer to the new computer:
    Transferring playlists
    If you want not only your content but also your playlists to exist on your new computer, you will want to transfer a copy of all your playlists from your old computer. To do this, choose File > Library > Export Library on your old computer. Save the XML file that is created to your desktop.
    Send the playlists file to yourself as an e-mail attachment, use an external drive, or use file sharing to move the playlists file to your new computer. Once the file is on your new computer, open iTunes and choose File > Library > Import Playlist. The import process will remove any items from the playlists that you didn't share via Home Sharing.

    That's all good and fine, but what have you tried codewise?  Let's see what you have so far and we can go from there.
    The easy answer is "an assignment" and a desire to pass the course without actually needing to read and comprehend information.

  • Make external hard drive read/write

    Not quite sure if there is in the right section but oh well.
    Here's the story:
    SeaGate FreeAgent GoFlex Drive (1.5TB) (THE FOLLOWING INFO WAS TAKEN FROM ITS APPLICATION: ("SEAGATE DRIVE SETTINGS")
    Drive Info
    Model: FA GoFlex Desk
    Firmware: 0D19
    Volume Info
    Format: Windows NT Filesystem
    Capacity: 1397.26 GB
    Available: 1224.35 GB
    Used: 172.91 GB
    Mount point: /Volumes/FreeAgent GoFlex Drive
    So it seems to slow down my iMac (10.6.8), 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1.5GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (memory) (1st Generation 17 inch) a fair bit. Could this be because of the Format? I have no idea why it says that. When I first installed it, it asked what OS I'm going to use it for. Not quite sure if I chose both or just Mac. But those files have somehow dissappeared.
    Now in Disk Utility...the RAID tab, Format says it is set to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) but then in the Erase tab it says Format: Windows NT Filesystem
    Which format is it set to!?!?!?!?!?!?!
    Now to the main point:
    I also have a new 13" MacBook Pro. When I plug it into it, I only have Read Permissions. How do I make it have Write Permissions as well?
    Sorry for the long essay...I hope you can help me. I might have two problems here.
    1. Is the format correctly set up for my iMac?
    2. How do I set it to have Read/Write permissions on different computers?
    Thanks.

    The Format is incorrect for Mac use, as you guessed.  Go into Disk Utility again, highlight the external har drive in the left hamd column by clicking on it and select the "Erase" tab, up and over to the right.  Then select the Format below that will be installed as "Mac OS Extended (Journeled)".  THEN, OK the erasure.  That should clear things up.
    Note: your Windows PC will NO LONGER be able to read the external hard drive.  It will be formatted for OS X use.
    Hope this helps

    Paragon even has non-destriuctive conversion utility if you do want to change drive.
    Hard to imagine using 3TB that isn't NTFS. Mac uses GPT for default partition type as well as HFS+
