Each record in the REGKEY class defines a key in the Windows registry.
The key to a REGKEY record is the full registry path to the key.
You can use wildcard characters as part of the path specification.
By default
PAM Server Control
protects the PAM Server Control
registry entries. The root of this registry entry is:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\AccessControl
PAM Server Control
also protects the following key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
The REGKEY class and the REGVAL class have identical properties. Most properties are modifiable and can be manipulated using selang or the administration interfaces. Non-modifiable properties are marked
informational
. HKLM/CurrentControlSet is a reference to ControlSet001 which
PAM Server Control
does not monitor. Point REGKEY / REGVAL resources to ControlSet001 instead of CurrentControlSet.- ACLDefines a list of accessors (users and groups) permitted to access the resource, and the accessors' access types.Each element in the access control list (ACL) contains the following information:
- AccessorDefines an accessor.
- AccessDefines the access authority that the accessor has to the resource.
- COMMENTDefines additional information that you want to include in the record.PAM Server Controldoes not use this information for authorization.Limit:255 characters.
- CREATE_TIME(Informational) Displays the date and time when the record was created.
- DAYTIMEDefines the day and time restrictions that govern when an accessor can access a resource.Use the restrictions parameter with the chres, ch[x]usr, or ch[x]grp commands to modify this property.The resolution of daytime restrictions is one minute.
- GROUPSDefines the list of CONTAINER records that a resource record belongs to.To modify this property in a class record, change the MEMBERS property in the appropriate CONTAINER record.Use the mem+ or mem- parameter with the chres, editres or newres command to modify this property.
- NACL
The
NACL
property of a resource is an access control list that defines the accessors that are denied authorization to a resource, together with the type of access that they are denied (for example, write). See also ACL, CALACL, PACL. Each entry in the NACL contains the following information:Accessor
Defines an accessor.
- AccessDefines the type of access that is denied to the accessor.
Use the authorize deniedaccess command, or the authorize- deniedaccess- command, to modify this property.
NOTIFY
Defines the user to be notified when a resource or user generates an audit event.
PAM Server Control
can email the audit record to the specified user.
Limit:
30 characters.OWNER
Defines the user or group that owns the record.
PACL
Defines a list of accessors that are permitted to access the resource when the access request is made by a specific program (or a program that matches a name-pattern) and their access types. Each element in the program access control list (PACL) contains the following information:
- AccessorDefines an accessor.
- ProgramDefines a reference to a record in the PROGRAM class, either specifically or by wildcard pattern matching.
- AccessDefines the access authority that the accessor has to the resource.
You can use wildcard characters to specify the resource in a PACL.
Use the via(
pgm
) parameter with the selang authorize command to add programs, accessors, and their access types to a PACL, You can use the authorize- command to remove accessors from a PACL.RAUDIT
Defines the types of access events that
PAM Server Control
records in the audit log. RAUDIT derives its name from R
esource AUDIT
. Valid values are:- allAll access requests.
- successGranted access requests.
- failureDenied access requests (default).
- noneNo access requests.
PAM Server Control
records events on each attempted access to a resource, and does not record whether the access rules were applied directly to the resource, or were applied to a group or class that had the resource as a member.Use the audit parameter of the chres and chfile commands to modify the audit mode.
UACC
Defines the default access authority for the resource, which indicates the access granted to accessors who are not defined to
PAM Server Control
or who do not appear in the ACL of the resource.Use the defaccess parameter with the chres, editres, or newres command to modify this property.
UPDATE_TIME
(Informational) Displays the date and time when the record was last modified.
UPDATE_WHO
(Informational) Displays the administrator who performed the update.
WARNING
Specifies whether Warning mode is enabled. When Warning mode is enabled on a resource, all access requests to the resource are granted, and if an access request violates an access rule, a record is written to the audit log.
