- I want to thank all those who replied to my posting regarding the
- setting of protection to make a file readable but leaving the
- directory essentially protected.

- If I missed anyone, I'm sorry.
-
- The deal is that by setting the protection on the parent directory to
- (W:E) and the protection on the file to (W:R) the file becomes world
- readable while the directory is not.
-
- Thanks again,
