z/OS V1R9.0 UNIX System Services Command ... - Christian Grothoff

Table 13. Fields in the Configuration File (inetd daemon) (continued)
login_name User ID and group that the forked daemon is to execute under. inetd can run
a program with a UID that is not 0. However, if the program that inetd runs
needs to change the identity of the process to that of the user, then the
login_name must have been defined to RACF via ADDUSER as a superuser
with a UID of 0 (UID 0) and the login_name must have been defined to
RACF. This will allow inetd to use special functions like setgid() and
setuid().
If the program that will be invoked by inetd requires the use of special
functions like setuid() and seteuid(), then it must be permitted to the
BPX.DAEMON class as in the following example for login, which is a typical
ADDUSER command.
ADDUSER rlogind omvs(uid(0) home(/)
A typical permit command is:
permit bpx.daemon class(facility)
id(rlogind) access(read)
How you set up security for daemons is the final determining factor. For
more information, see z/OS UNIX System Services Planning.
server_program Full pathname of the service. For example:
/usr/sbin/rlogind
is the full pathname for the rlogind command.
server_arguments Maximum of 20 arguments. The first argument is the server name.
Related Information
The inetd daemon creates a temporary file, /etc/inetd.pid, that contains the PID of
the currently executing inetd daemon. This PID value is used to identify syslog
records that originated from the inetd daemon process, and also to provide the PID
value for commands such as kill that require you to specify a PID, and to provide a
lock to prevent more than one inetd from being active at one time.
For more information on setting up the inetd configuration file and configuring
daemons in general, see z/OS UNIX System Services Planning or z/OS
Communications Server: IP Configuration Reference.
infocmp — Compare or print the terminal description
Format
Description
infocmp [–ducn] [–ILC] [–1Vv] [–s d|i|l|c] [–A directory] [–B directory]
[term_names...]
inetd daemon
infocmp compares terminfo database entries, or prints a terminfo database entry.
Output is written to standard output (stdout).
The Curses application uses the terminfo database, which contains a list of terminal
descriptions. This enables you to manipulate a terminal’s display regardless of the
terminal type. To create the terminfo database, use tic. For information on defining
the terminfo database, see z/OS UNIX System Services Planning.
