ABSTRACT:
A method and a system for managing access to a plurality of objects located on levels within a hierarchical structure in a data processing system. A first object within the plurality of objects is located. An operation is selected to after access to selected objects within the plurality of objects, wherein the selected operation excludes altering access to directories located in said hierarchical structure on levels below the first directory to match that of the first directory. Then, the selected operation is performed on objects located in on levels below the first object wherein access to the plurality of objects may be managed.
