There may not be an equivilant to dos, but you can stop anyone reading a
file, its all done with permissions.
man chmod
man chown
man chgrp
A file readable only by root is;
-rw-------
To obtain that
chmod 600 filename
an executable file
chmod 610 filename
There are many more combinations of which i am sure Greg and the rest will
explain.
