HP CD-ROM Server User's Guide

Security Management 6-9
Security Management in Specific Network
Environments
Access Restrictions
in NetWare
Bindery (no
Authentication)
When accessing the CD-ROM server, if user authentication is
not required, then NetWare server licenses are also not required
because the server does not log onto the file server. In this case,
you do not have to specify the parameter
AuthenticationServer
stored in the CD-ROM server’s
config.txt
file. All users (except
‘supervisor’) will be given guest access rights.
To restrict access to the CD-ROM server’s configuration and
security files when no Authentication Server is used, follow
these steps:
1.
Open the
config
access rights:
• If using a Web browser, step through the pages:
Management, Volume Rights, Server, Config.
• If using a text editor, open the file
config.txt
which is
located at:
root\volumes\server\config.txt
. Setting the
volume rights is described earlier in this chapter.
2.
Find the
NetWareUser/Group
entry and replace * with the
word Supervisor. This will change the access rights from ‘no
restrictions’ to ‘supervisor only’.
3.
Save and close the
config
access rights.
4.
Repeat steps 1 to 3 for the
volumes
access rights (
volumes
in
the Web browser, or with a text editor open
volumes.txt
). This
will restrict access to the files that hold the access rights.
5.
Open the CD-ROM server configuration parameters and
change the
SupervisorPassword
parameter from
pass
(default password), to the password you wish to use. For
information on how to access and change parameters, refer to
chapter 5.
Access to the configuration files and the access rights files will
be now limited to the Supervisor, and will be password
protected. Users will not have access to those files, but will still
have guest access to CD-ROMs.
