AFS defines three system groups that you can put on your ACLs. This group includes everybody. Only few people in this group who administer your cell. Use the pts mem command to display group's members. Use the pts chown command to change the owner of a command.
Files inherit the access rights associated with their parent directory.
If you move a file to a new directory, the file gets the access rights of its new directory. When you create a subdirectory, it inherits the current access rights of its parents directory. You can then set the subdirectory's ACL to be different from its parents. AFS is particularly convenient for STAR computing at non-RCF sites. Under AFS, the offsite user is presented with the identical STAR AFS directory tree hierarchy and files.
