Access permissions

When you archive a file, the client saves standard UNIX access permissions that are assigned to the file.

Depending on your operating system, it also saves extended permissions. For example, for files on an AIX® workstation, the client saves access control lists.

If you are a user, and you archive a file to which you have read access, you own the archived copy of the file. You are the only user who can retrieve the archived file unless you grant access to another user.
