SENTRY User’s Guide

Section 2 - 3

4.File System. This entry allows you to scroll through your UNIX tree structure much like you do in Window’s File Manager. From this selection you may request “file detail” information which is read from the UNIX I-node. Included in this information is the last time the file was accessed and/or modified. In this screen you may change the owner, the group and the permissions.

5.Database Commands. You may create, delete, modify and review the special permission-like protection SENTRY offers for Verbs, Paragraphs, Sentences, Menus, and Procs through this entry. Users and groups may be given rights to execute an item only from within a program and/or from the database prompt. For example, this selection gives you the facility to restrict the use of “DELETE” at the database prompt, but still make it available should your application software need to execute it from within a program.

6.User Defined Items. This is a special SENTRY feature which allows you to define SENTRY security objects. These objects may be accessed through subroutine calls to solve unique security problems which may not be met through permissions and VOC item security facilities. For example, a personnel report is needed by a secretary who is completing a group insurance report. This report also displays salary information. A User Defined Item could be created so that the salary field displayed only asterisks

(*). The User Defined Item could discriminate by user ID or by group to determine when to print the salary field. This would eliminate the need for ANOTHER report (which would increase the software Support burden for the MIS staff).

The following sections describe the functionality of each selection, the prompts, the availability of cross referencing and expected input. Examples of all screens are presented along with sample data.
