View Trustee Assignments in the File System
Sometimes for security auditing purposes it is helpful to know who has rights at a
particular directory level, and how they got those rights. Selecting the “Trustees” button,
either from the file browse view or the “Object Management” view, provide an analysis of
the rights all eDirectory objects have to the selected directory. It provides a list of each
object with effective rights and identifies how those rights were given, i.e. through a
direct trustee assignment, thought inheritance, or via security equivalence. Inherited
rights filters (IRFs) can be discovered through this analysis as well.
When the analysis is run, the list is displayed, and the following legend is displayed as
well, to help the administrator to understand the results.
