no
Note that entries are scanned from left to right and top to bottom.
The scan stops on the first match of a file name on the left side of
the equal sign and a project-programmer number on the right side of
the equal sign.
When you create your ACCESS.USR file, you should take care to see that
a wild card specification will not match in a line earlier than a
specific specification in a later line. As a general rule, place
specific statements first in the ACCESS.USR file, followed by more
general "catch all" statements. If you want to log entries, you must
use the /LOG switch (and any of the other switches) on every line for
which that switch applies.
B.4 MONITOR INTERFACE TO A FILE DAEMON
A File Daemon is a privileged program that can be used for the
following purposes:
1. Overseeing file accesses.
2. Aiding in proprietary billing.
3. Tracking program usage.
The interface between the monitor and the File Daemon that is
described in this section is supplied and supported by Digital.
There is a privileged program called the File Daemon. Digital
supplies one unsupported version of a File Daemon, which is described
in the preceding sections of this appendix. But, each installation
should write its own File Daemon, because each installation will vary
on its requirements for such a program.
