NAME SERVER DATABASE
UTILITIES
4.1. General
Information
The AccessBuilder Name Server Database Utilities (dbutil) are a collection of
tools that enable management of a user database on a Sun Workstation
under SUN OS 4.1.x. Keeping the user database on SUN workstation has two
advantages:
a The system administrator can better manage the user database because
there is only one copy of database to deal with as opposed to one
database per AccessBuilder Server.
b The database can store hundreds of thousands of user records in order
to satisfy the needs of an enterprise network, where there are a large
number of remote users.
4.2. User Record
Contents
The User database contains a set of user records. Each user record contains
information on a remote user who accesses AccessBuilder Server. A user
record is composed of four elements of information:
1 The user's name,
2 login password,
3 privilege and
4 callback number.
The user's name is the key of a user record, and therefore must be unique.
All information except the callback number are mandatory, which means
this information must be supplied when adding a user record to the
database.
