clienthost

Description

Type string READONLY

clienthost contains the host name/IP address of the requesting host. For a typical pmrun command, this will be identical to the submithost variable. For a Privilege Manager for Unix shell running as a login shell (for example, pmksh, pmcsh, pmsh, pmloginshell, and pmbash), this will contain the host name from which the user is logging in, which may not be a Privilege Manager for Unix host. For example, if the user logs in by means of a telnet session from a Windows PC, then the clienthost variable will contain the host name of the Windows PC. Always use short names when checking the clienthost variable, as some login programs may truncate the full host name.

Example
# reject commands being issued from unknown workstations 
workstations = {"sun34","sun35","sun36"}; 
if (!(clienthost in workstations)) 
   reject;

The command variable generally contains the full path name of the command being run. Use the basename() function to get the command name without the full path.

if (basename(command) in admincommands) 
{ 
   runuser = "root"; 
   accept; 
}
