The "*" is a placeholder for the virtual address or range of addresses. Since this is SFS, there is no virtual address, but you still need a placeholder. Also note that you're forcing the directory to be accessed as R, even if something else is already accessed as R. You could code a range instead: <* R-Z/A>
