Protecting script

Good day

I would like to know if at all possible how to secure scripts. Assume ksh in AIx. Is there a way that I can avoid users from reading it other than chmod ?

Thx

J

Using system methods there is no such way.

You can use a Kornshell-compiler and compile your scripts, but since it is no real compilation (ksh compilers are pseudocompilers, which tokenize the input and pack them together with a runtime engine interpreting the tokenized source) it can be decompiled the same way backwards.

Thanks for the reply. Is this compiler available in native AIX or is it a 3rd party tool. If its a 3rd party tool can you give me a link.
