I'm trying to set the 'file protect' bits on some applications on a standard
AppleShare file server, to stop people simply dragging copies onto their own
floppy disks.

However, ResEdit 2.1 (under SSW 6.0.7) just won't let me do this - the button
is activated ok but no cross appears in the box. This is when I am logged into
the server as 'Administrator'.

Am I barking up the wrong tree here?  What do I need to do to achieve this? It
was simpler with AlisaShare, where you just run a program called ASCP!

Thanks for your help...
