Final
steps
You are now almost ready to let users use FileStore. The final stage is to make
FileStore secure, by making it difficult for other users to use the commands
you have just been using.
This involves giving the SYST user identity a password and changing the
maintenance id (also initially set to SYST) to some other name.
1.
Make up a short but fairly memorable password for yourself, consisting of
between 4 and 6 characters (numbers, letters, punctuation marks). Your
aim is to invent a password that you will remember but that others are
unlikely to guess.
2.
Log on as SYST, as described previously.
3.
Select NETMGR from the main menu, press SYSTEM and then type:
*PASS " "
password
I
where
password
is the password you've just invented.
4.
Make sure you remember this password. If necessary, write it down on a
piece of paper and then lock that paper away somewhere. Don't leave it
lying around for others to see.
To gain access to the management mode commands, you have to put
FileStore into management mode, then log on using the management
mode id. This id is quite separate from the id you use for logging on
when in normal (user) mode. It is simply set to the same as that (ie
SYST) to make life easy for you initially.
To change the management id:
5.
Put FileStore into maintenance mode. You can do this by turning
FileStore off, opening the access flap and then turning on and logging on
again as SYST. However, a much quicker way is to select BASIC and
type:
*FSMODE M ‹-
1
6.
Make up a new maintenance id. This should be obscure but memorable,
just like the password you invented for SYST. You could even use this
password, if you want to simplify things.
