Abstract

Techniques for enforcing access rights during directory access are presented. Access rights are maintained at the container level of a directory tree for container objects within a cache. When security is set for a requester of a target, the container object cache is directly accessed along with rights assigned to the target and the security is calculated and then set against the requester.
