Re: Java SP writing to file system

YMMV? No way. USA. Or UK?

I'd have thought you'd need the file name always?

More or less. The whole JRE in NT is weird, to say the least. I tend to dedicate one account to it and play only in there. I was referring to thinking of "Everyone" as a group. It isn't. NT internally should consider it as a group name, but it doesn't always. Eg, in the absence of any specific access rights for user SYSTEM if you grant open access to Everyone, SYSTEM-owned processes still won't be able to get in. Don't ask me how I found this out...

The whole interface of JRE Java, JServer Java and NT security needs a whole book written about it! Or at least someone like Jonathan to give it a good poke and find out exactly what the combos are and what is possible. Too darn confusing as is.
