alertkeysequence

Description

Type list READ/WRITE

alertkeysequence contains a list of regular expressions, against which pmlocald checks the standard input commands entered by the user during a session. If a match is found, then an alert is raised in the event log.

Example
Switch (user) { 
   case "root": alertkeysequence={"passwd"}; 
      alertkeyaction="log"; 
      break; 
   default : alertkeysequence={"passwd", "shutdown"}; 
      alertkeyaction="reject"; 
      break; 
}

disable_exec

Description

Type integer READ/WRITE

Use disable_exec to prevent the runcommand process from executing new UNIX processes. For example, you can prevent a vi session from executing shell commands. This variable is only supported if the underlying operating system supports the noexec feature; that is, Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, and AIX. If set to true(1), Privilege Manager for Unix sets the LD_PRELOAD environment variable, which causes the runcommand to be loaded with a Privilege Manager for Unix library that overrides the system exec functions, and thus prevents the runcommand from using exec to create a new process.

Example
if (basename(runcommand) in editor_program_list) 
{ 
   disable_exec=true; 
}

eventlog

Description

Type string READ/WRITE

eventlog contains the full pathname of the file in which audit events are logged. The default pathname is /var/opt/quest/qpm4u/pmevents.db.

Example
adminusers = {"dan","robyn","cory"} 
if (user in adminusers) 
   eventlog = "/var/log/pm+admin_eventlog_" + user + ".log"; 
else 
   eventlog = "/var/opt/quest/qpm4u/pmevents.db";
