File/Folder Permission Options

Transfer File and Folder Permissions

Enable this option to transfer File and Folder Permissions (NTFS security style via CIFS or UNIX security style via NFS). When enabled, the NTFS Options and Global Settings link will be enabled for further configuration.  

NTFS Options

Click this button to open the ACL Options dialog. The options in this dialog allow you to specify the types of permissions you want PeerSync to detect and transfer. The options include Owner, DACL: Discretionary Access Control List (enabled by default), and/or SACL: System Access Control List.

Global Settings

Click this link to open the Global Settings dialog and set the global permission settings.

 

 

Notes:        

 

1.Care must be exercised when using ACL options to synchronize files and folders between different domains. File security transfers could make the target file inaccessible after transfer/update.

 

2.When you use a local drive letter (either for the source or target path) you need to make sure the drive is assigned as an administrative share (i.e. D$) in order for ACLs to work properly.

 

3.This feature may be ignored when using an TCP Source or Target.

 

4.Some features on this screen require an NFS and NetApp enabled license.  Please visit http://www.peersoftware.com or contact Sales for additional information.
