Use of HULFT by general users

HULFT

8.0.0

Although the operation of HULFT was previously limited to superusers (root) in principle, functions have been redesigned for use by general users.

Users who do not have the permissions of superusers (root) can now perform the following operations:

  • Starting and terminating each daemon (Send daemon, Receive daemon, and Observe daemon)

  • Operation of HULFT Management Console

  • Executing HULFT operation commands and utilities

In addition, permissions to access files have been changed as follows so that multiple users with different permissions can operate HULFT.

Cancellation of s-bit from the permissions to the following commands under the execution module storage directory (bin):

  • Startup command for the Send daemon (hulsndd)

  • Send Daemon Termination command (utlkillsnd)

  • Command to re-create fifo file (utlkillsnd)

  • Receive Cancel command (utlrcan)

  • Receive Status Display command (utlrdisp)

Modification of the default values for file permissions for new installation

The default values for the following files under the execution module storage directory (bin) has been modified:

  • Default values for api/ libhulapi.a, hulft-main.inf: "644"

  • Default values for other modules: "755"

Inheritance of file permissions for update installation

Permissions for the following files will also be inherited:

  • System Environment Settings file (hulenv.conf)

  • CSV Environment Settings file (hulcsv.info)

  • Management Console Security file (huladm.info)

  • Observe Definition file (service.db)
