[Info-vax] ACL Protection On An Image

[lee_morgan at hotmail.co.uk]

Hello

I am looking for a method to control access to a specific image that
I
have residing on disk (not installed into memory).

I have modified the protection on the image from W:RWE to W:R and now
want to allow access, only via a Rights Identifier.


I would prefer to create an ACL on the physical .exe file but when I
try to do this I am having a few issues.


Firstly, I create the rights identifier that I will use to control
the
access. Then I create the ACL on the executable, using the afore
mentioned rights identifier. Finally I grant the rights identifier to
a
specific user but when they try to run the image, they are not
authorized to execute it.


When creating the ACL, I specified ACCESS=EXECUTE but still no joy.


Any pointers would be grately appreciated.


Maybe I am missing something and you cannot actually use this method.


I've also read about using SUBSYSTEM ACL's but didnt want to make
this
too complicated.


Thanks in advance.


Lee.
