Create an ACL entry with pdadmin

We can create an ACL entry for an ACL policy in the domain with the pdadmin utility.

Steps

  1. Log on to the domain as the domain administrator.
  2. Use the acl modify command with the set option.

For example, to create the permissions for user maryj for the Test-ACL ACL policy to have r (read) action bit:

pdadmin sec_master> acl modify Test-ACL set user maryj r

To show the modifications to the ACL, use the acl show command. For example, to show the ACL named Test-ACL, enter the following command:

pdadmin sec_master> acl show Test-ACL

          ACL Name:  Test-ACL
          Description:
          Entries:   User   maryj r
