The settings that control the access to a calendar. For example, in Calendar Express, permissions include Availability, Invite, Read, Delete, and Modify. Calendar Server administrators set permissions as access control entry (ACE) strings using command-line utilities. See also ACE (access control entry) and ACL (access control list).
Field property setting that allows you to control who can view and change individual fields of a schema. Permissions are defined for each access control group. View permission limits group members to reading the contents of a field. Change permission allows group members to read and write the contents of a field. See also access control group.
refers to who has authority to read/write/edit/publish a page, as well as the ability to assign pages to others, change system settings, etc. These capabilities are set by an administrator.
Each asset within a site has a set of permissions which indicate which user groups are allowed to read, write or administer the asset.
Attributes that may be associated with an item to restrict the types of access that different users have to it. In CONTENTdm, related to restricting access to items and collections by user name or IP address.
Rights that are assigned to individual users or user groups so that they can access specific resources, such as folders or printers.
Settings that define the type(s) of action a user can take with a shared resource. With LAN Manager user-level security, each user is assigned permissions for each resource. With LAN Manager share-level security, each resource is assigned permissions, and all users who access the resource have those permissions. See also effective rights, rights, trustee rights.
The UNIX environment allows multiple users to share the same disk space and other resources. In order to provide privacy in this setting, each file has a ``permissions status'' that defines who is allowed to read, write, or execute that file. A file may be accessible to (1) only the owner, (2) a specific group of users, or (3) all users. This status is set by the file's owner using the chmod command.
the rules on a server that determine who has the ability to do certain things, such as access, read, write, rename, move, or delete files or directories.
Security measures applied to objects (e.g., database tables, etc.), based on defined user rights.
A number of permission and logging options allow the Network Administrator to manage usage of Zetafax. For example, who can submit urgent priority messages, what information users can find out about each other's use of fax who can edit address book.
The authorized actions a subject can perform with an object (i.e. read, write, modify, or delete).
In server management, user rights granted by an administrator for a given project, Web site, file, or folder. The highest level of flexibility and security is available only on an NTFS-formatted disk under Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000.
Setting permissions enables administrators to limit user access to individual files and folders and provides a greater degree of security. Windows NT provides six individual permissions that can be assigned to a file or folder. Each permission specifies the access that a user or group can have to the folder or file.

Administrative users can modify overall permissions for users or groups for access and editing of various TRUEreq features. Owners of items can set permissions for the items they own or create in the tree.
access rights for specified usernames or groups to objects on a computer system or to objects within an application. For example, read, write and delete access for the Administrator group to files in a specific location on a server.
Access modes, associated with directories and files, that permit or deny system users the ability to read, write, and/or execute the directories and files. In Unix, you determine the permissions for your directories and files by changing the mode for each one with the chmod command.
The set of identifiers that control access to files. Permissions consist of three fields: user, group, and world. The user field controls access by the user owning the file, while the group field controls access by anyone matching the file's group specification. As the name implies, the world field controls access by everyone else. Each field contains the same set of bits that specify operations that may or may not be performed, such as reading, writing and executing.
In the Distributed Computing Environment (DCE), the modes of access to a protected object. The number and meaning of permissions with respect to an object are defined by the access control list (ACL) manager of the object.
a permission dictates the action that may be executed on a topic. Examples of Permissions include: read only; submit knowledge; edit; and delete.
A file on a web server requires certain permissions. For example a webpage usually requires permissions to be read whereas a script requires permissions to execute. Permissions can be changed using our web based file manager, FTP or SSH.
The settings (also called properties or attributes) associated with each file or directory that determine who can access or modify the file and directory. Use the command to list a file's permissions; use the chmod (change mode) command to change a file's permissions.
When applied to files, they are the attributes that control access to a file. There are three levels of access: owner (the file creator), group (people belonging to a related group as determined by the system administrator), and other (everyone else). The permissions may be r for read, w for write, and x for execute. The execute permissions flag is also used to control who may search a directory.
Characteristics of a file or folder that determine what certain users can do with the file or folder--for example, whether they can view a file's contents or remove a file from a folder.
Permission control who has access to what in IW. Permissions affect both the access level and the ability to deploy. If you would like to request a change in permission access, all requests must go through an IW master (Sheldon for TruthMedia). Note: Permissions changes have far reaching effects, not all permission requests will be granted.
Permissions are a method of granting or denying access to functionality within MyEd. For example permissions are used to control which groups or users can access a channel. Permissions are also used to control what functions groups or users can access within a channel. See Permissions Manager.
The permits associated with an object that control which users and groups can access an object and the level of access given to them. In a docbase using ACL security, object-level permissions are applied using ACLs, which define permissions for individual users or groups. In a docbase using Unix-based security, the permissions are applied to three categories of users: owner (the person who created the object), group (the members of a user group defined for the object), and world (everyone who uses the docbase). The permissions are not mutually exclusive. To review or change the permissions for an object, use the Permissions dialog box.
Permissions restrict which users can read, write, or execute files, or which users can view, get, or put files in a folder. For instance, you may have permission to look at and download a file on a server (read permission), but not permission to delete or make changes (write permission). For more information, see the permissions help topic.
A rule associated with an object, such as a file, to regulate which users can gain access to the object and in what manner. Permissions are granted or denied by the object's owner.
An access privilege (e.g. read, write, execute) associated with a file or directory. Depending on the operating system, each file may have different permissions for different kinds of access and different users or groups of users. Source: Foldoc: Free On-line Dictionary of Computing
In Access security, authority given to perform operations (such as read or modify) on a database object.
Authorization to perform operations associated with a specific shared resource, such as a file, directory, or printer. Permissions must be granted by the system administrator to individual user accounts or administrative groups.
While your session with a computer is active, you will be assigned permissions to view, edit, update data and to run programs. Your permissions are granted to you by your system administrator or a person responsible for computer security.
Rights granted by the account owner to a designated user.
Also called modes. Define who has what rights to access files on a web server.
Permissions control access to content creation, modification and site administration. Administrators assign permissions to roles, then assign roles to users. The first user id of a Drupal site (uid=1) automatically receives all permissions, no matter what role that user belongs to. Anonymous user is uid0.
With respect to Digital Asset Management software, Permissions refers the tools used by Administrators to control access to assets or categories of assets to users or groups of users. Image Portal has a robust and easy to use Permissions System.
