secdefs(ADM)


secdefs -- report settings of security defaults

Syntax

/tcb/bin/secdefs [ -v ] [ -a | level ... ]

Description

secdefs compares the current settings of the system-wide security defaults with the security levels defined in /tcb/lib/relax (high, improved, traditional, and low). secdefs reports the name of the closest security level that has the least number of differences.

secdefs takes the following options and arguments:


-v
Displays a table of the actual differences as well as a count. The three columns of the table display:


-a
Displays comparisons for each security level defined in /tcb/lib/relax, in order of increasing number of differences.

level
secdefs reports on the differences for each of the named levels.

Limitations

secdefs examines only the files etc_def and default in the directory /tcb/lib/relax/level. It does not compare the values set in the script file against the current security defaults.
