LINUX Profile Data Records

The LINUX profile data record contains information needed by the LINUX PAM Server to verify user access. It maps the Linux application user identity to an CA ACF2 for VM logonid.

Record ID

Fields

recid

LINUXGRP(group-name)
LINUXHOM(home-directory)
LINUXNAM(application-user-id)
LINUXPGM(program)
LINUXUID(uid#)

Field Descriptions

recid

Specify a one-to-eight character CA ACF2 for VM logonid. This value cannot be masked.

LINUXGRP(group-name)

Specifies the name of the LINUX group profile record. A one to eight character field. This field is optional.

LINUXHOM(home_directory)

Specifies the Pathname of the Initial Directory when a user enters a Linux command or the ISPF shell. A 1 to 1024 upper or lower case alphanumeric character field. This is a required field. If left undefined on an INSERT command, it defaults to '/home/%L'.

The following strings substitutions are allowed:

Symbolic String Substitution

Note: If LINUXNAM field is not defined, it is substituted to CA ACF2 for VM logonid.

LINUXNAM(application-user-id)

Specifies the LINUX Application User Identity. A 1 to 1024 upper or lower cased alphanumeric character field. This field is optional.

LINUXPGM(program)

Specifies LINUX/390 Service Shell Program when Linux command is first entered. A 1 to 1024 upper and lower cased alphanumeric character field. This field is required. If this field is left undefined on an INSERT command, it defaults to '/bin/bash'.

LINUXUID(uid#)

Specifies the LINUX uid value. A numeric field that accepts values from 0 to 2,147,483,647. This field is required.

Commands

To build a cross-reference table to map a LINUX/390 application user id to an CA ACF2 for VM logon id:

ACFSERVE RELOAD PROFILE LINUX USER

Example

The following example inserts LINUX user profile record, LNXUSER9 with Linux application user id value of Linuxuserid9.

INSERT LNXUSER9 linuxnam(linuxuserid9) linuxgrp(linuxgrp) linuxuid(1234)      
  LINUX / LNXUSER9 LAST CHANGED BY USER01 ON 04/11/05-15:55                     
        LINUXGRP(LINUXGRP) LINUXHOM(/home/%L) LINUXNAM(linuxuserid9)
        LINUXPGM(/bin/bash) LINUXUID(1,234)
