selang Configuration on UNIX

On UNIX, you can manage the way selang works. Most of the options are concerned with the way selang manages the UNIX security system (for the selang UNIX environment).

The selang utility uses the following two files for configuration options:

seos.ini

Contains CA ControlMinder configuration options. This is the main configuration file for CA ControlMinder.

lang.ini

Contains configuration information that selang uses.

selang uses the lang.ini files in one or both of the following locations:

• The directory where the seos.ini file is located.
• The user's home directory.

If you specify a token in only one of these lang.ini files, selang uses the value from that file. If you specify a token differently in the two lang.ini files, the value in the user's home directory overrides the other one.

The values for the tokens DefaultShell and DefaultHome in the server's seos.ini file override the values set in the tokens DefaultShell and HomeDirPrefix in the lang.ini file.

Note: Sample lang.ini files are located in the directory ACInstallDir/samples/lang.init.
