OSF DCE Administration Guide--Core Components

Managing the DCE DST
The DTS principal that represents the server on a given system is the primary access
control object for DTS. This principal has controlled access by human users and clerk or
server processes. The default name that you can use for the DTS object in any dcecp
command is /.:hosts/hostname/dts-entity.
The ACL for the DTS server can contain any type of ACL entry that is valid for a
principal (human or process) or authorization group to which this principal belongs. See
Chapter 28 of this guide for a discussion of the DCE ACLs facility and descriptions of
ACL types and their entries.
To display the ACL entries in the DTS server principal’s ACL, you can use the dcecp
acl show command. For example:
dcecp> acl show /.:/hosts/Detroit2/dts-entity
{unauthenticated r--}
{user hosts/Detroit2/self rwc}
{group subsys/dce/dts-admin rwc}
{any_other r--}
To modify any of the entries in the DTS server principal’s ACL, you can use the acl
modify command. Instructions for using this command appear in Chapter 28.
