The user needs the SE_SECURITY_NAME privilege. This privilege is granted
through the "Manage auditing and security log" right.

If the SE_SECURITY_NAME privilege is not held, GetFileSecurity() (a Windows
function) issues a return code of 1314, which is what ADSM reports in the
dsmerror.log messages you are seeing.

At this point there are two options:

1) Grant the "Manage auditing and security log" right.

2) Code SKIPNTPERMISSIONS YES in dsm.opt. ***** WARNING ***** If this option is
used, ADSM will not restore/retrieve NT permissions when the files are
restored/retrieved.

Subject: Archiving Files in WinNT without being administrator


Hello,
I have WinNt 4.0, Service Pack 3 with the backup client 3.1.0.3.
When I try to archive a file as a normal user I get the following error
messages in dsmerror.log:
21.07.1998 17:14:43 fioGetAttrib(): getFileSecurityInfo(C:\adsmzeugs)
failed
21.07.1998 17:14:43 TransWin32RC(): Win32 RC 1314 from fioGetAttrib():
getFileSecurityInfo
21.07.1998 17:14:43 TransWin32RC(): Win32 RC 1314 from NtSecurityRead():
getSecurityDescriptor() for SACL SD
21.07.1998 17:14:43 ANS4007E Fehler bei Verarbeitung von
'C:\adsmzeugs\ADSM-Kurs_ps.gz': Zugriff auf das Objekt verweigert

The english text of the last error message is:
Error processing ' filespace namepath-namefile-name': access to the object
is denied.

The user is the owner of the file and has access to all directories above.
What is the problem here?
Best regards
Gerhard
