Be very careful changing the permissions on any of the UV directories. If your system is used by users who do not need access or should not have access to UV then I would create a uvusers group, which you can then add users who are entitled to access the database to. e.g. /etc/group 501:x:uvuser1,uvuser2 etc.. -rw-rw---- root uvusers UV.DATA.FILE -rwxrws--- root uvusers UV.DATA.DIRECTORY The 's' indicates that any files created in the directory get assigned the group who owns the directory and can be set with chmod 2770 directory name. find . -type d -exec chmod 2770 {} \; find . -type f -exec chmod 660 {} \; The users umask should be set to 007 if the login profile, or the LOGIN paragraph.

Will the print applications work? Are there any special considerations for UV?
