× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

I think your only options are a read-only NetServer share or IFS
permissions.

The activity should show up in your audit journal, assuming you're auditing
those activities.

subject: How to prevent user with mapped drive from accidently
cut/paste or dragging a folder to another folder

We have several users that use a mapped drive to IFS to achieve part of
their work functions.
Occasionally, a user will accidently move a subfolder (not related to
their tasks) to another subfolder, either by accidently select cut/paste or
by dragging.
This breaks production for another process.
Can this be prevented.
Reviewing QAUDJRN, the cut/paste does not appear.
We use menu security to control various options, and all objects are
available to all users.

Thank You
