Background-Server Component Security


Background-Server Component Security

Security information is maintained in an optional text file on the server.
The file stores unencrypted user names and unencrypted passwords; therefore, the file must be kept in a secure directory.

When user names and passwords are entered into the Administration and Monitoring Program (the client), they are encrypted for delivery to the server.
The server decrypts the user names and passwords to verify proper access to the ServeRAID adapter or controller.
If the verification is successful, the adapter or controller accepts commands from the client.
If no security file is present in the default directory, or the directory specified by the -s parameter, security is disabled.
The server component then accepts commands from any client connection.

The security file contains one user name and password combination per line.
The strings are separated by a colon (:) and each string has a maximum of eight characters.
