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. For each file, there is an associated
icon 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 associated icon
and the file will open in the Windows NT® Notepad editor.
Your 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 that are available to users. When a user logs in
to 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 a user's
privileges for remote access connections.
The acp_userinfo file allows you to control network access based on a
user's login environment. When you create a profile, erpcd first
authenticates users and then attempts to match the user name with an
entry in the acp_userinfo file. If a profile matches the login environment,
erpcd downloads attribute information.
