Adds entries to the proxy database that give remote users an
OpenVMS identity (account name). Applies to the NFS server, NFS
client, PC-NFS, RSH, LPR/LPD, and customer-developed services.
The proxy database contains communication proxies and NFS
proxies:
o Communication proxy
- Provides an identity for users of RSH, RLOGIN,
REXEC, RMT/RCD, LPR/LPD, and customer-written
services, if these services are marked with
SET SERVICE /FLAGS=APPLICATION_PROXY.
NOTE
The ROOT account does not require a communication
proxy in the proxy database. The /FLAGS=APPLICATION_
PROXY flag, therefore, is not relevant when you are
setting up a communication proxy for a UNIX root
account.
- Required qualifiers: /HOST, /REMOTE_USER.
o NFS proxy
- Provides an identity for users of NFS client, NFS server,
PC-NFS. No two proxies can have the same UID and host
combination.
- Required qualifiers: /HOST, /GID, /UID.
You can combine NFS and communication proxies in one record.
