NetInfo Planning 41

Now suppose that a ﬁle, MyDoc, resides on a computer accessible to both Tony and Tom.

The ﬁle is owned by a user with the UID 127. It has read-only access privileges for

AllStudents. Tom is not a member of AllStudents, but the short name in his user record,

“tsmith,” is the same as Tony’s, who is in AllStudents.

When Tom attempts to access MyDoc, NetInfo searches the login hierarchy for user records

with short names that match those associated with AllStudents. Tom’s user record is found

because it resides in the login hierarchy, and the UID in the record is compared with Tom’s

member of AllStudents.

The Next Step

After you have decided what the logical and physical topology of your NetInfo hierarchy

should look like and which administrative information to store in shared domains, you are

ready to set up your hierarchy. The next chapter tells you how.
