Consider you have a system that supports 5000 users. Suppose that you want to allow 4990 of these users to be able to access one file.
You can specify protection scheme in two ways:
1. Create an access control list with the names of all 4990users.
2. Put these 4990 users in one group and set the group accessaccordingly. This scheme cannot always be implementedsince user groups are restricted by the system.

There are two methods for achieving this: 1. Create an access control list with the names of all 4990 users. 2. Put these 4990 users in one group and set the group access accordingly. This scheme cannot always be implemented since user groups are restricted by the system. b. The universal access to files applies to all users unless their name appears in the access-control list with different access permission. With this scheme you simply put the names of the remaining ten users in the access control list but with no access privileges allowed.
