NAME

       bos_setrestricted - place a server in restricted mode

SYNOPSIS

       bos setrestricted -server <machine name> -mode (0 | 1)
           [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-help]

DESCRIPTION

       The bos setrestricted command places the server in restricted mode. This mode increases
       the security of the bos server by removing access to a number of bos commands that are
       only used whilst configuring a system.

       When a server is in restricted mode, access to bos_exec, bos uninstall, bos install, bos
       create, bos delete, bos prune is denied, and the use of bos getlog is limited.

CAUTIONS

       Once a server has been placed in restricted mode, it may not be opened up again using a
       remote command. That is, bos setrestricted has no method of placing the server in
       unrestricted mode. Once a server is restricted, it can only be opened up again by sending
       it a SIGFPE, which must be done as root on the local machine.

OPTIONS

       -server <machine name>
           Indicates the server machine to restrict.

       -mode <mode>
           Indicates whether to turn restricted mode off or on. Pass a 1 to turn restricted mode
           on, and pass a 0 to turn restricted mode off. The latter will only work if the server
           is already running in unrestricted mode, and thus won't do anything immediately, but
           can be used to change the corresponding entry in BosConfig(5).

       -cell <cell name>
           Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the
           -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).

       -noauth
           Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag
           with the -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).

       -localauth
           Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile
           file. The bos command interpreter presents the ticket to the BOS Server during mutual
           authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more
           details, see bos(8).

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine named by
       the -server argument, or must be logged in as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth
       flag is included.

       As noted above, this command cannot be run against servers which are already in restricted
       mode.
