The permissions dialog box for a Macintosh volume on a Windows NT Advanced
Server machine, and the Sharing dialog box on a Macintosh are similar, but
not exactly the same. The column for See Folders and See Files have been
reversed on the Windows NT Advanced Server dialog box. They appear as
follows:

Macintosh:

                          See Folders  See Files  Make Changes

Owner      ________________     X            X          X
User/Group ________________     X            X          X

          Everyone             X            X          X

Windows NTAS:

                          See Files   See Folders Make Changes

Owner      ________________   X            X           X
Primary
Group      ________________   X            X           X
Everyone:                     X            X

There is no functional difference in the two dialog boxes.
