The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.5 and 3.51
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0

The permissions dialog box for a Macintosh volume on a Windows NT Advanced Server machine, and the Sharing dialog box on a Macintosh are similar, but not exactly the same. The column for See Folders and See Files have been reversed on the Windows NT Advanced Server dialog box. They appear as follows:

Macintosh: 

                           See Folders  See Files  Make Changes
Owner      ________________     X            X          X
User/Group ________________     X            X          X
           Everyone             X            X          X
Windows NTAS: 

                           See Files   See Folders Make Changes
Owner      ________________   X            X           X
Primary 
Group      ________________   X            X           X
Everyone:                     X            X
There is no functional difference in the two dialog boxes.
