Access Control Basics Task 1

Hi!, I’m lost with this activity:
1.- After adding the Villains group to the Hall_of_Doom folder, what permissions does the Villains group have for the Hall_of_Doom folder (in icacls format)?

The only output that I see for Villains group is (OI)(CI)(M) but that’s not the answer. I guess is some permissions like RC, WD, RA ?

Best Regards

Did you ever receive an answer for this question? Im currently stuck on this question.

Did you look at the screenshot above your post?

Yes sir I did. But still don’t have the answer. I even reworked the lab a few times. I’m stuck.

Im also lost in the last two questions


Can u give ans for this

Hey there - I’m afraid we can’t openly provide answers to questions from the labs. For these two questions, you just need to work through the Guided Exercise to the very end, then follow the final two steps:

43. As you did earlier in this lab, use the Effective Access feature to check Lex Luthor’s permissions for the Leadership folder (this should look as it did before).

44. Navigate to This PC, then use the Effective Access feature to check Lex Luthor’s permissions for the Local Disk (C:).

If you’re unsure how to use the Effective Access feature, I would review Steps 20-26, where you initially use the Effective Access feature. This feature should give you the answers to both questions.

You just need to follow the instructions to get this one - specifically at step 19.

I’m having issues with this one myself. Wondering if did something wrong, not entirely sure what given how straight forward this seems. I’m currently only seeing lex having 3/4 permissions for one and only one permission for the other, but I’m being told to retry both. Hopefully, that isn’t giving away too much, but I doubt it’s productive to say “I followed the steps exactly and I’m being told my answers are wrong.”

I"m going to have to ask if anyone else has done this recently and is running into the same issue. I know some of the challenges don’t work, so I like confirmation that this is on my end or if it’s not.

Hey there - to confirm, are you inputting the permissions that Lex.Luthor has? Or the permissions that Lex.Luthor does not have?

The questions are asking for the latter, so question 3 should be 1/4 permissions and question 4 should be 3/4 permissions.

Yeah, that confirms it’s on my end. Thanks.

i am stuck on first step

Could you please provide more detail? The first step is:

  1. On the taskbar, click the File Explorer icon to open a File Explorer window.

Does any body get number 4 on the challenge 1.3 exercise Access Control Basics, I do not get it, I need help with it. The question ask, What undesired permission does this group have on the Hall_of_Doom folder?

To answer question 4, you’ll need to check the permissions on the Hall_of_Doom folder using icacls.

I really do not get this question and have input the above highlighted Icacls to no avail…please help

I’m lost on this one…been on it 2 hours
