Principals are shown in the Principal area. Rights and flags associated with each principal are shown to the right of each principal. Principals The principal is made up of three parts: The individual or group icon The Default (D) flag The principal name Note that the default flag cannot be modified, because the principal is really the combination of the default flag and the principal name. You cannot clear the default flag; you must remove the ACE, then add a new ACE that does not have the default flag set. This isn't usually a problem, because the ACS usually contains a default and a non-default ACE for the same principal. Rights and Flags The DECdns access rights are Read (R), Write (W), Delete (D), Test (T), and Control (C). The DECdns flags are Propagate (P) and Group (G). Double-click on the right or flag you want more information about. R W D T C P G Each right has a slightly different meaning, depending on the kind of name with which it is associated. Double-click on the type of entity you want to see a summary of access rights for and a description of the operations they enable a principal to perform. Clearinghouse Directory Object Entry/Soft Link If you click on the Locked button, it changes to Editable, indi- cating that you can modify the rights for that principal. After you make changes, click on the Editable button to lock it once again.
