Network File Permissions

RW 5.12.0138

I am using the CopyFile instruction to copy files to a shared windows network drive via the NFS Client option.

The exported files have read and write permissions for user 'Robot', but only read permission for group 'Shared'.

As a result it is not possible for members of group 'Shared' to delete or otherwise modify these files from a PC on the network. They may only be deleted from the FlexPendant.

Our network administrator says that the file permissions are determined by the IRC5, not by our network settings. Is there a way to specify different permissions at the IRC5?

Thanks,

Kevin

    Correction: the network is running on Linux, but is accessed via Windows. I am told that this should make no difference.

    Surely I am not the first person to encounter this problem.

    Please would someone from ABB bring this thread to the attention of an ABB communications expert.

    Thanks,

  • Its the NFS Server settings that defines the access rights to catalogs and files on the server. The NFS client (IRC5) can't override any server settings.
