	AMASS Overview
Remote File Copy	RCP allows the user to do file transfers to and from the AMASS
(RCP)	without manually logging onto the remote system. The login
	function is performed automatically by the RCP utility. In
	addition, RCP can do recursive copies, which can copy an entire
	directory structure to or from the target. For the login function
	to work, the user’s user name must exist on the target system;
	therefore, coordination of user names must be enforced
	across the network servers.
Telnet	Available Telnet functions depend on the processes started by a
	user’s login name and password. Using Telnet in conjunction
	with a shell login process allows users to access utilities, such
	as find and chmod, which perform functions not available
	with FTP.
Security	Local: In local access mode, system security is primarily a
	function of setting the directory permissions in the AMASS file
	system. Because these permissions follow standard UNIX file
	system conventions, the specific settings are not documented
	here.
	Network: For systems running in a network environment,
	AMASS security, as with other UNIX file systems, is primarily
	a function of the network systems or protocols used.
	Use permissions appropriate for your users’ environment.
	Caution
	With system administration tools, a user can bypass system
	security and modify AMASS configuration parameters that may
	deteriorate system performance. Therefore, ADIC suggests you
	restrict access to the scripts, utilities, and commands.
