[comp.sys.apollo] NETMAN and Security

AWHITTON@BNR.CA (Alan Whitton, A.V.N.) (06/30/90)

Hello:

With all these discussions about security I figured I'd throw in the following,
when NETMAN creates a new /SYS/NODE_DATA.<Hex ID> directory on a diskless
boot, the entire new `node_data has wide open security. Has anyone figured
out how to fix this (aside from turning off netman)?

Also I tried out the university of Michigan's INPROT template and I applaud
the completeness of the template but I have two questions (or problems):

i) The use of the group TTY, why is this used? We don't have this in our
   registry, should we?

ii) INPROT choked on the mention of the ... symbol (I am running at 10.3
    BETA in a BSD ONLY environ):
e.g.
D bsd4.3/usr/include/...
D bsd4.3/usr/include/... -dirs
D bsd4.3/usr/include/... -files
F bsd4.3/usr/include/...
etc.,

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Alan Whitton
