NAME

tkadmin clear exclusiveauthority - clears the server’s exclusive authority

SYNOPSIS

tkadmin clear exclusiveauthority -server servername

ARGUMENTS

-server servername Specifies the server affected by the command. The server name is the name that is registered with the DCE Directory Service. If the server name is not specified in the command line, it is retrieved from an environment variable, ENCINA_TK_SERVER. 

DESCRIPTION

The tkadmin clear exclusiveauthority command moves the specified Encina server from single-user mode to the normal ACL-based authorization, multi-user mode. When an Encina server is running in exclusive authority mode, only one specified principal is granted access to the server until this command is issued. Use this command to enable multiple clients to use the Encina server after all administration requiring single-user mode has been completed. 

A server is placed in single-user mode when the server is started with the -A option (or after the tkadmin set exclusiveauthority command is issued). At initial server startup, Enconsole automatically starts the server in single-user mode and clears the exclusive authority after appropriate ACLs have been set. 

EXAMPLES

The following command clears the exclusive authority of the SFS server /.:/branch1/server/sfs1 :

% tkadmin clear exclusiveauthority -server /.:/branch1/server/sfs1

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

User must be logged into DCE under the principal identity who is granted exclusive access to the server.
