 relax(ADM)                      19 June 1992                      relax(ADM)


 Name

    relax - change system security defaults

 Syntax

    /etc/relax level

 Description

    relax changes selected system-wide security defaults to one of several
    predefined levels located in /tcb/lib/relax.  Each level is named and
    defined by the directory that contains three files:

    default specifies fields to be updated in the file
            /etc/auth/system/default.

    etc_def specifies files and values to be updated or removed in the direc-
            tory /etc/default.

    script  is a shell script which is run to make other changes to such set-
            tings as kernel parameters using configure(ADM), default umask
            settings by edits to various files, and other changes.

 Example

    relax takes one argument, which should be the name of a directory in
    /tcb/lib/relax, for example:

       relax improved

    This reconfigures the system security settings to the ``improved'' level
    of security.
