Authorizations for Starting External Programs
Maintain the secinfo file in the data directory of the gateway instance. The syntax of the entries is as follows:
USER=<user>, [PWD=<pwd>,] [USER-HOST=<user_host>,] HOST=<host>,TP=<tp>;
Use a line of this format to allow the user
<user> to start the <tp> program on the host <host> .The level of authorization checking performed can be increased by specifying
PWD and/or USER-HOST .
USER=mueller, HOST=hw1414, TP=test;
The user
mueller can execute the test program on the host hw1414 .
USER=hugo, PWD=pass, USER-HOST=hw1234, HOST=hw1414, TP=prog;
The user
hugo can execute the prog program on the host hw1414 , as long as he has logged on to the Gateway from host hw1234 and has used the CPI-C call CMSCSP to set the security password to pass.If the user has used the CMSCSU call to set the security user, then this is also used for checking.
The '*' character can be used as a generic specification for any of the parameters.
If either of
PWD or USER-HOST are not specified, the value '*' is assumed.Example: All users should be allowed to execute the
test program on the host hw1414 :You can display the current list of security entries using the SAP Gateway Monitor and you can update this display at any time.
