3.04 - I've revoked my own rights from this subdirectory.
A common mistake is to revoke your own access control rights in a
directory. If you have access control rights in a parent directory,
you can regain the access rights that you lost.
Example: If user ALICE has [RCWEMFA] in USR:ALICE/ but accidentally
revoked access control in the subdirectory PROJECTS (let's just
say she now has [RF] in USR:ALICE/PROJECTS/), she would not be
able to simply use grant to get the rights back because she has
insufficient rights.
To recover access control:
1. Check which groups you are in (or equivalent to).
WHOAMI /S
2. Pick a group and grant access rights to that group in the parent.
GRANT A TO EVERYONE FOR USR:ALICE
3. You should now have access control in the subdirectory.
CD PROJECTS
4. Remove the trustee which caused the problem.
TLIST
REMOVE ALICE FROM USR:ALICE/PROJECTS
5. Remove the rights of the group from the parent directory.
REMOVE EVERYONE FROM USR:ALICE
