Editing Files

Using the acp_userinfo File

3-2
Remote Annex Server Tools for Windows NT
You can edit the acp_userinfo, acp_dialup, and acp_keys files from the
Bay Networks program group window. There is an icon for each file in
the program group window.
To open an individual file, such as the acp_userinfo file, from the Bay
Networks program group window, double-click on the respective icon and
the file will open in the Windows NT® Notepad editor.
The changes take effect immediately. User names and group names are
not case-sensitive.
The acp_userinfo file stores information about the Remote Annex
commands and protocols available to users. When a user logs into the
server, erpcd matches the login environment with acp_userinfo entries,
and controls user access based on these entries.
Defining User Profiles
Defining user profiles is useful only when you want to restrict user
privileges for remote access connections.
Network access is controlled by the acp_userinfo file, based on user login
environments. When you create a profile, erpcd authenticates users and
attempts to match the user name with an entry from the acp_userinfo
file. If a profile matches the login environment, erpcd downloads attribute
information.
