atcronsh(ADM)                   19 June 1992                   atcronsh(ADM)


 Name

    atcronsh - at and cron administration utility

 Syntax

    /usr/lib/sysadm/atcronsh

 Description

    atcronsh is the screen interface invoked by the sysadmsh(ADM) Jobs -
    > Authorize selection.  It is used to specify users allowed to use the
    cron(C), at(C) and batch (see at(C)) commands.  It also allows the at(C)
    and batch prototype files to be edited.

    The program allows a system default for cron(C), at(C) and batch to be
    given.  The defaults can be:

    none      No user authorized

    allow     All users allowed to use the commands unless a user is specifi-
              cally denied

    deny      All users denied to use the commands unless a user is specifi-
              cally authorised

    The default setting decides whether an allow or deny file is to be used
    (deny file means /usr/lib/cron/cron.deny or at.deny, allow file means
    at.deny or /usr/lib/cron/cron.deny).

    For each user (unless the none system default has been chosen), a specif-
    ic authorization for cron(C), at(C) and batch may be given. The allow and
    deny files are interpreted as follows:

         +  if an allow file exists, and the user name appears in it, the
            user is allowed access.

         +  if an allow file exists, access is denied

         +  if a deny file exists and the user name appears in it, access is
            denied

         +  if a deny file exists, access is allowed

         +  access is denied


 Files
