Access Control Tips

• If you change a directory's access control type, the change will not take effect until you publish the collection.
• If you add access controls for a directory that does not exist on the staging server, future publishes will fail. To correct this, either remove the access controls, or create an empty directory on the staging server before publishing.
• You can add access restrictions to a directory before creating the actual directory. This helps assure that new content has the appropriate restrictions.
• If you toggle between the Any Andrew user and the Specific Andrew users options, the user list that you specify will be maintained.
• When you add directories, the system does not verify the existence of a directory. Therefore, type the directory name exactly as it appears on the server, including upper- and lower-case letters.
• Directories appear in the order in which you add them.
• When you set directory permissions, you see additional access options, as well as access control options for the root of the collection.
