Re: Authirity access to Netview Maps

Alvino,

I think you have several options.

1.   For UNIX, the "netview" command accepts a parm of "-ro"  to force it
to open a read-only map even if it is the first.   put that into a script
and give that to your users to use.

2.  There are commands such as ovwchmod that change permissions on your map
database.    These could be used to force specific groups to have r/o
access.

Do a "man netview" or "man ovwchmod" for more information or look in the
NetView doc.


Kind regards,
