ttsession_file(4) ToolTalk Commands ttsession_file(4)NAMEttsession_file - tell ttsession (1) about systemwide defaults.
SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ttsession
DESCRIPTION
The file /etc/default/ttsession can be used to control the behavior of
ttsession processes on the machine on which this file resides. Each
line within the file is of the form VAR = value. Currently there are
two values which VAR may be assigned:
AUTH = <security_options> [, lock=yes|no]
COMPAT = allow_unauth_types_load = yes|no [, lock=yes|no]
Format rules
The format rules for a ttsesssion_file are:
1. All lines must be command (VAR = value) lines.
2. Words may be delimited by white space.
3. A command line of the form:
AUTH = <security_options>
follows the same format fules which are used in the "-a" option to
ttsession(1).
4. A command line of the form:
COMPAT = allow_unauth_types_load = yes|no
means to allow("yes") or disallow("no") users to successfully call the
ToolTalk API function tt_session_types_load(3). The default is "no".
5. Adding the comma seperated suffix:
"lock = yes|no"
to either of the format lines allows ("no") or disallows ("yes") the
value to be overridden by a given instance of ttsession(1) via argu‐
ments passed to the ttsession process. The default is "no".
EXAMPLES
This example allows calls to tt_session_types_load(3) systemwide:
COMPAT = allow_unauth_types_load = yes
This example sets systemwide security to a specified level, and disal‐
lows per-session override on this host:
AUTH = gss,mechanism=kerberos_v5,qop=GSS_KRB5_CONF_C_QOP_DES, lock = yes
