ProcedureHow to View Your Files in a Labeled Workspace

To view your files, you use the same applications that you would use in Trusted CDE or Trusted JDS on a Solaris system. If you are working at multiple labels, only the files that are at the label of the workspace are visible.

  1. In a Trusted CDE workspace, open a terminal window or the File Manager.

    • Open a terminal window and list the contents of your home directory.

      Click mouse button 3 over the background. From the Workspace menu, choose Programs –> Terminal.

    • On the Front Panel, click the File Manager.

      Figure 3–3 A Labeled File Manager

      Screen shows a File Manager that is labeled PUBLIC with
files in the File Manager.

      The File Manager appears with the contents of your home directory at that label.

      The File Manager opens at the same label as the current workspace. The application provides access to only those files that are at its label. For details about viewing files at different labels, see Containers and Labels.

  2. In a Trusted JDS workspace, open a terminal window or the File Browser.

    • Open a terminal window and list the contents of your home directory.

      Click mouse button 3 over the background. From the menu, choose Open Terminal.

    • Double-click the Documents folder or the This Computer folder on your desktop.

      These folders open in a File Browser. The File Browser application opens at the same label as the current workspace. The application provides access to only those files that are at its label. For details about viewing files at different labels, see Containers and Labels.
