Chapter 15 Using RA 6300 Security
A-244
Book A
Creating User Groups
One of the most useful aspects of customizing security is the ability to
apply different access rights and restrictions to different groups of users.
To associate individual users with one or more groups, you create entries
in the /etc/group or acp_group file.
The /etc/group file already exists on most UNIX systems, so you may
prefer to add entries to this file rather than entering them in acp_group,
which you must create. Either file must reside in the install directory
(default is /usr/annex) on the UNIX security host.
erpcd looks for acp_group first, only using /etc/group if it cannot find
acp_group. To designate that erpcd should use /etc/group rather than
acp_group, see
Changing the Expected File Names Used by ACP
on page
15-328.
The
acp_group
file must have the same format as the
/etc/group file. The following systems do not support the acp_group
file: Ultrix, FreeBSD, and BSDI. On these systems, you must use the /
etc/group file.
An /etc/group or acp_group file contains a one-line entry for each group.
To retain compatibility with /etc/group, the acp_group file includes
passwords and group ID fields, although ACP does not use them. Due to
UNIX implementation, you must specify a value in each of these two
fields, although what you choose to enter is arbitrary. The format for an
ACP group entry in acp_group or /etc/group is:
groupname:password:groupid:userlist
The groupname field specifies the name of the group; the userlist field is
a comma-separated list of user names belonging to the group. There is
no arbitrary limit to the number of names in userlist. Fields are separated
by the colon (:) character.
