Interfaces for the Security Features
Compaq provides several user interfaces for the Guardian security features:
•
The TACL program
TACL commands and programs provide user and logon security.
•
File Utility Program (FUP)
FUP commands provide security for disk files.
•
Peripheral Utility Program (PUP) (D-series only)
PUP commands provide security for disks and other peripheral devices. For
example, the PUP ALLOWOPENS command permits users to open files on a disk
volume. PUP is primarily used by system operators (user ID 255,n). For more
information, see the Peripheral Utility Program (PUP) Reference Manual.
•
Safeguard subsystem
Safeguard software provides additional security features for systems and distributed
networks. Instructions for logging on at a terminal controlled by Safeguard software
are included in Section 2, Getting Started With TACL
. For more information about
the Safeguard subsystem, see the Safeguard User’s Guide.
