UCX NFS (UCP) ADD — VMS UCX_1.3
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
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)
Additional information available:
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. If the NFS server is active, the ADD PROXY command will also modify the NFS dynamic database.
Additional information available:
/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)
/PERMANENT
Specifies that PROXY modifications are to be made to the UCX$PROXY
permanent database only. This qualifier is useful only when the
NFS server is active.
If the NFS server is active, and you do not specifiy /PERMANENT, then
changes are made to both the permanent UCX$PROXY database, and NFS's
authorization cache.
Format:
ADD PROXY vms_account /HOST=(name_list)/UID=uid/GID=gid/PERMANENT
/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
