Subject: Flag Command Reveals Hidden Files
Date: September 18, 1990
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
GENERAL
INFORMATION: A user reports that the FLAG command in NetWare 386 v3.1
also flags hidden files so that the hidden files are no
longer hidden. For example:
FLAG *.* Normal
This is also the case under NetWare 286. If you have
NetWare 286 v2.15c or below, the FLAG command only allows
you to change four of the eight options (Shareable, Read
Only, Indexed, and Transactional). With NetWare 386 v3.0
and up, you can change all of the attributes with flag and
if you use the NetWare 386 FLAG with NetWare 286, you can
change all of the attributes on the NetWare 286 server.
However, you must have modify rights. In NetWare 286, files
are hidden with the HIDEFILE and unhidden with the SHOWFILE
commands.
