current owner of the file (or the super ID, (255,255)) can execute the GIVE command
for a file.
fileset-list
is a list of files whose ownership is to be given to another user. You can use wild-
card characters, and you can specify qualified-fileset for fileset-list.
groupnum , usernum
is the group and user numbers of the user who is to be given ownership of the
files.
groupname.username
is the group and user names of the user who is to be given ownership of the files.
PARTONLY
specifies (for partitioned files) that only partitions included in fileset-list are to
be given. If you omit PARTONLY, only entire partitioned files whose primary
partitions reside in fileset-list are given. PARTONLY has no effect on
nonpartitioned files.
GIVE Guidelines
ï‚·
A Super.Super user is allowed to change the ownership of a Safeguard
protected file if the underlying persistent protection record does not explicitly DENY
ownership permission to Super.Super.
ï‚·
A non-Super.Super user is allowed to change the ownership of a Safeguard
protected file under the following conditions:
1. The requestor (non-Super.Super user) is the owner of the file as recorded in
the disk label.
2. The READ (R) permission must be provided to the user while adding to
safeguard protection using Safeguard command interpreter (SAFECOM)
otherwise user receives FileSystem Error 48 (Security Violation).
3. The new owner has ownership permission as per the underlying persistent
protection record.
