ALTER SERVER Command
NULL-ALIAS-OK { TRUE | FALSE }
specifies whether remote NFS users who do not have an alias are allowed access to
files managed by the server. If TRUE, these users are mapped to the "nobody" user
ID (-2). The "nobody" user ID must be defined in the list of OSS NFS user IDs. If
FALSE, a user must have an alias to gain access through pass-through servers. The
default value is FALSE.
PRI cpu-priority
specifies the execution priority for the server process. You can specify a priority of -
1 or a priority from 1 through 199. (Processes with higher numbers have higher
priority.) If you specify a priority of -1 or omit this attribute, the priority of the NFS
manager process at the time the SERVER object is started is used as the priority of
the server process.
PROGRAM file-name
specifies the NonStop Kernel file name of the server program. Use the filename that
was specified when the NFSSVRHP file was installed. See the Open System
Services NFS Management and Operations Guide for more information about
installation.
PROCESS process-name
specifies the name of the server process.
READ-ONLY { TRUE | FALSE }
specifies whether or not access to the file system serviced by the server is on a read-
only or read/write basis. If TRUE, the file system must be initialized before you
create this server by a server that is not configured as read-only. The default value is
FALSE—the file system allows read/write access.
ROOT-USER-OK { TRUE | FALSE }
specifies whether remote root users are allowed to access the server’s files with
super-ID privileges. Root users have access to all NFS files, regardless of their
permission and ownership values. This super-ID permission is normally not
allowed during access checking because anyone who can become the root user on
their workstation can gain access to any remote file. If TRUE, remote root users
are allowed access to the server’s files with super-ID privileges. If FALSE, requests
from remote root users are treated as requests from the NFS nobody user (user ID
65534). Note that the FALSE value is contingent on the definition of user ID 65534
as the nobody user ID. To prevent super-ID permission during access checking, a
nobody user ID must be defined.
The default value is FALSE.
