Using Model 5390 Security
If the number does not match a dial-back entry, but other numbers are defined for jeremiah,
the Model 5390 server denies him access.
If no charge-back or dial-back numbers are defined for jeremiah, the Model 5390 server
connects him immediately.
The user need not be concerned about which ports the Model 5390 server uses for dial-in or
charge-back.
When security is running, which is the case as soon as the erpcd daemon is started on the Unix host,
erpcd makes an internal copy of acp_userinfo. If you change acp_userinfo while security is
running, your changes do not take effect. To activate a new acp_userinfo, send a USR1 signal to
erpcd to force it to update its copy of acp_userinfo using the UNIX command kill:
kill -USR1 pid
For more information, see Recompiling erpcd starting on page A15-84.
Security Logging
ACP host-based security generates audit trails of IPX user activity if you do the following:
1
Make sure the Model 5390 enable_security parameter is set
to Y.
2
Install ACP security software on one or more hosts (see Setting Up a Security Server
on page A15-10).
3
Designate one of the hosts running ACP as a security host, and, if you wish, designate
another as a back-up security host.
4
Set the pref_secure1_host and pref_secure2_host parameters to specify the preferred
security hosts. Use the set annex command to set these parameters, e.g., set annex
pref_secure1_host 0.0.0.0.
The Model 5390 server first queries the pref_secure1_host for user validation or permission
connection requests. If a response is not received within the time in seconds defined in the
network_turnaround parameter, the Model 5390 server repeats the query several times. If
the Model 5390 server still does not receive a response, it queries the host defined in the
pref_secure2_host parameter. If a response is not received from the second security host
A15-44
NOTE: If you include both dial-back numbers and charge-back in the
same accesscode entry, charge-back takes precedence.
