Move FLAG, GRANT and REMOVE closer to the request paths used by the Novell tools and extend the DOS comparison tests. FLAG now reads attributes through the old NCP22 directory scan path and writes them through NCP22/25 Set Directory/File Information. This keeps extended attributes such as Delete Inhibit and Rename Inhibit intact and matches the Novell behavior observed in the server logs. GRANT now prefers NCP22/27 SetTrustee with an NCP87 fallback. Supervisor rights are expanded like Novell does, so granting S sends and reports the full SRWCEMFA mask. The visible output, path formatting and error text are adjusted to match the Novell baseline. REMOVE now prefers NCP22/2B DelTrustee with an NCP87 fallback. The DelTrustee request layout is corrected, /SUBDIRS handling is aligned with Novell, and the output/error text is matched to the baseline. The FLAG, FLAGDIR, GRANT and REMOVE tests now compare NPUBLIC baselines against the PUBLIC implementations and add delayed NOPASSUSER readback checks using DLYSTRT and the maintainer LOGIN password option.

REMOVE comparison test
RMVSTA.BAT compares Novell \NPUBLIC\REMOVE against the public implementation \PUBLIC\REMOVE.
Run as SUPERVISOR or equivalent. The automatic NOPASSUSER readback needs the maintainer LOGIN /PWD: support and DLYSTRT:
SET LGNTPWD=your-supervisor-password
F:
CD \
RMVSTA
RMVSTA performs a direct comparison first:
F:\RMVCMP\OUT Novell baseline with \NPUBLIC\REMOVE
F:\RMVCMP\PUBOUT public implementation with \PUBLIC\REMOVE
F:\RMVCMP\COMPARE.LOG
Then it starts C:\RMVTMP\RMVC.BAT through DLYSTRT. The helper logs in as NOPASSUSER and captures effective-rights readback after the public REMOVE operations:
F:\RMVCMP\UNOV \NPUBLIC\RIGHTS as NOPASSUSER
F:\RMVCMP\UPUB \PUBLIC\RIGHTS as NOPASSUSER
F:\RMVCMP\UCOMP.LOG
The matrix covers single trustee rights, mixed rights, S, ALL, N, file trustees with /FILES, and recursive removal with /SUBDIRS.
RMVZIP.BAT is intentionally manual. Run it after inspecting the results:
RMVZIP
The ZIP step packages OUT, PUBOUT, UNOV, UPUB, setup logs, comparison logs, and then removes the generated F:\RMVTEST and C:\RMVTMP trees.
