Foreign File System Routines

The File Manager provides several routines that allow you to obtain and set privilege information on foreign file systems. The PBGetForeignPrivs and PBSetForeignPrivs functions allow your application or shell program to communicate with a foreign file system about its native access-control system. These functions retrieve and set access permissions on the foreign file system, using a foreignPrivParam variant of the HFS parameter block.
