UCX NFS (UCP) ADD — VMS UCX_1.2

Additional information available:

EXPORT

  Only filesystems or subdirectories within filesystems which have been
  exported on  the  server  are  eligible for remote access from client
  workstations.  Using the ADD EXPORT command you specify the  list  of
  clients which  may access the Exported filesystem.

  NOTE: The host name qualifier is required.

  Format:
    ADD EXPORT UCX_file_specification /HOST=(host_name_list)

Additional information available:

/HOST

/HOST

  The /HOST qualifier is used to specify which remote host or hosts
  will be allowed to access a file system.

  Format:
    ADD EXPORT UCX_file_specification /HOST=(host_name_list)

Example

  A.  Allow an ULTRIX client on host GOLDEN to access the UCX
      file system /golden/gate

      ADD EXPORT "/golden/gate" /HOST=GOLDEN

  B.  Allow an ULTRIX client on hosts GOLDEN and BRKLYN to access
      the UCX file system /golden/gate

      ADD EXPORT "/golden/gate" /HOST=(GOLDEN,BRKLYN)

  C.  Allow an ULTRIX client from any host to access the UCX
      file system /golden/gate

      ADD EXPORT "/golden/gate" /HOST=*

PROXY

  ULTRIX and VMS use  different  authorization  methods.   It  is  not
  possible to provide VMS privileges to an ULTRIX client based on that
  client's identification.  The ADD PROXY command provides  a  VAX/VMS
  identity (account) for each NFS client.  This  VAX/VMS  identity  is
  used as the basis for access control  whenever  the  NFS  client  is
  accessing a VMS file.

  This is not to say that each ULTRIX client must have  a  unique  VMS
  account.   It may be desirable to have a group of ULTRIX clients use
  the same VMS account.

  The vms_account is an account name which is found in  the  VMS  User
  Authorization File (UAF).  This account must be created manually  by
  the VMS system manager.


Additional information available:

/GID/HOST/UID

/GID

  Specifies the ULTRIX GID for the client that is to be given access.

  Format:
    ADD PROXY vms_account /GID=gid

/HOST

  Specifies the ULTRIX host from which access is to be  given.  If the
  /HOST qualifier is issued without a /UID qualifier, then any  client
  on the specified host will be allowed access through the  named  VMS
  account.

  Format:
    ADD PROXY vms_account /HOST=(host_name_list)

/UID

  Specifies the ULTRIX UID for the client that is to be given  access.
  If this  qualifier is  issued  without  a /HOST qualifier, then this
  client will be allowed access through the named VMS account from any
  host.

  NOTE: The UCX software does not allow remote superuser access, so
        the client_id cannot be that of a superuser (uid=0).

  Format:
    ADD PROXY vms_account /UID=gid
