File-Access and Security Considerations
Table 4-16 shows which optional parameters the Compaq responder can return in a
response PDU.
File-Access and Security Considerations
The VFS controls access to files through normal Guardian security mechanisms. Each
FTAM association has a Compaq user ID associated with it. This user ID can assume
two values, depending on whether the initiator-identity parameter is supplied in the F-
INITIALIZE request primitive. If the initiator-identity parameter is supplied, this
parameter provides the user ID value. If the initiator-identity parameter is omitted, the
user ID becomes the default user configured via the DEFUSER attribute for the VFS
profile used by the responder. In either case, the password can be used. The filestore-
password parameter of the F-INITIALIZE request primitive supplies the password
used to authenticate the initiator identity. DEFUSER includes both the user ID and the
