What is the Enterprise Scope feature, and how do I use it?
Before this feature, Security Explorer was limited in the fact that you can only target one drive at a time for any given function (Grant, Revoke, etc.) This has all changed with the introduction of Enterprise Scopes. You can now target multiple drives on one or many servers located across your network. For example, you can group together all home directories * even if they span several drives on several servers. It can also be used for ‘quick access’ of complicated paths. You can create a scope called ‘Quick Access’ and add frequently accessed paths to the scope. The scope data is contained in three text files ‘NTFSScp.dat’, ‘REGScp.dat’ and ‘ShareScp.dat’ * you can edit these files in any text editor, or use our GUI to add paths to your scopes. At any time, you can use the tool bar, or right-click menu to Grant, Revoke, etc.
