Running the Oracle HTTP Server on OpenVMS 3ñ19
Security Information
The Oracle HTTP Server for OpenVMS is a non-privileged, user-mode, socket-based
network application
.
TMPMBX and NETMBX are the only privilege
requirements
.
The server runs under its own unique UIC and user account
(ORACLE).
Process Model
The Oracle HTTP Server runs as a single job which consists of:
■
A master process (ORACLE)
and
■
Several subprocesses
Subprocesses are created to service incoming HTTP requests and to execute CGI
scripts.
Because the server runs as a single job, the OpenVMS security profile for each
process is identical, and no enhanced mechanism is required for these processes to
communicate with one another
.
Resource utilization is controlled by a single user
account (ORACLE) where pooled quotas are defined.
Privileged Images
The Oracle HTTP Server performs three operations that require additional privilege:
■
Binding to a port below 1024 (privileged ports).
By default, the server binds to port 8080 (HTTP).
■
Fetching path information for other users.
The server provides a replacement for the
getpwnam
C RTL routine to allow
the server to fetch default path information for other users (required by
MOD_UTIL
and
MOD_USERDIR
).
