-
- Does NFS provide read-but-not-search access to a directory? That is,
- allow programs to find files by name within the directory, but do not
- allow listing or searching the directory. Thus a student could not go
- to the directory and type COPY *.* to get all the files.
-
- Borland C++ unfortuantely does require read access to its files (not
- just execute access) because of its overlay management scheme.
