By default, ts-shell is permitted to connect to all target
systems.
Before you begin
Skip this task if you do not want to restrict ts-shell
permissions to specific target systems.
Procedure
- Use your preferred editor to open /etc/iucvterm/ts-shell.conf.
- Find this line:
ts-systems = /etc/iucvterm/unrestricted.conf
Change
the line to:
ts-systems = /etc/iucvterm/ts-systems.conf
- Use your preferred editor to open /etc/iucvterm/ts-systems.conf.
- List the z/VM® user
IDs, each on a separate line, of all target systems to which you want
to permit connections.
Example: A file to permit connections to LXGUEST1, LXGUEST3, LXGUEST5,
LXGUEST7, and LXGUEST9 might read:
LXGUEST1
LXGUEST3
LXGUEST5
LXGUEST7
LXGUEST9
Tips:
- Lists of z/VM user IDs
can be extensive. If you have access to the z/VM user directory, you
can use the vmur, grep, and cut commands
to create a list from the z/VM user
directory.
- You can permit connections to any target system by keeping the
default configuration file unrestricted.conf or
with a single entry,
[*ALL*] in ts-systems.conf.
- Save and close the configuration file.
