Files and directories in QNetWare are stored and managed by Novell NetWare servers.
When using commands and APIs to retrieve or set the authorities of either owners or users, QNetWare maps NetWare users to iSeries™ server users based on the name of a user. If the NetWare name exceeds ten characters or a corresponding iSeries server user does not exist, then the authority is not mapped. Owners that cannot be mapped are automatically mapped to the user profile QDFTOWN. The authorities of users can be displayed and changed using the WRKAUT and CHGAUT commands. When authorities are transferred to and from the server they are mapped to iSeries server authorities.
