C18: BLANKPASSWORD
This keyword causes all OBJECT program input to be scanned for the word
PASSWORD. If PASSWORD is found, the first word (or token) following it is replaced
by the number (#) symbol when written to any audit trail.
Example:
COMMAND SAFECOM
DESCRIPTION "Safecom as SECURITY.ADMIN"
USER 100,255
OBJECT $SYSTEM.SYSNN.SAFECOM
ACL 100,*
DENY 100,1 100,2
TIMEOUT 900
FC? FCPROMPT "="
BLANKPASSWORD
The BLANKPASSWORD specification ensures that the string following the word
"PASSWORD", even if found on the ACACL Command Entry startup line, will not be
seen in any audit trail.
Important! It is imperative that this keyword be used with all OBJECT files which
change or input passwords. Some of the programs known to require
BLANKPASSWORD are TACL, BATCHCOM and SAFECOM.
C19: BLOCKMODE_AUDIT
The BLOCKMODE_AUDIT keyword determines whether function keys pressed by the
user while in block mode are audited. When BLOCKMODE_AUDIT is set to ON, the
function keys will be audited. When BLOCKMODE_AUDIT is set to OFF, they will not
be audited.
Syntax:
BLOCKMODE_AUDIT { ON | OFF }
The Example below shows an edit process where the function keys pressed while in
VS will be not audited.
Example:
COMMAND EDIT-255
DESCRIPTION "EDIT AS SUPER.SUPER"
USER SUPER.SUPER
OBJECT $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.EDIT
ACL TECH.*
OPENSBYOBJECTS $SYSTEM.SYSTEM.VS
BLOCKMODE_AUDIT OFF
