RE: System i Navigator does not allow mkdir

Larry,

In Sys i Nav, I open IFS /Root, then rt-clk the
dir expecting to find 'New Folder', but the only
option even close is "Create Shortcut" ???

I was able to take care of business with MKDIR
from a command line, but would like to learn
why I can't Sys i Nav ?

The dir under which I want to create new is owned
by our Operations Mgr/Security Officer. However,
I am a member of a group which shows all rights
except "Exclude" and "From AUTL"

Under that dir, I show as owner of all existing dir,
but none of these show a 'New Folder' option when
rt-clked ?

Gary,

Do you mean it doesn't work or you can't find how?

If you can't find how, merely right click on the folder in which you wish to create the new folder and select 'New Folder'

I can create IFS directories/folders from command line:
MKDIR('/somedir/lvl2/lvl3A')
MKDIR('/somedir/lvl2/lvl3B')
MKDIR('/somedir/lvl2/lvl3C')

Also delete
RMVDIR('/somedir/lvl2/lvl3C')

can't do either from System i Nav ?

tried searcing archives but no hits yet
