DESCRIPTION
The file allows the superuser to restrict the paths set by others through an environment variable to locate message catalogs for or root
programs.
This file contains only one entry with the following format:
pseudo-pathnames in this file should be absolute pathnames and must be separated by a colon. The paths which are available both in the
configuration file and environment variable are considered to locate message catalog files. The file should not be edited directly.
Instead, the command should be used to modify the contents of this file. See chnlspath(1M) for details.
If contains the file is in compatibility mode. In this case, all and root programs use the environment variable directly to locate message
catalogs. This configuration file is supported only to provide backward compatibility for those or root programs which are depending on
the environment variable New or root programs should not depend on the environment variable and configuration file
EXAMPLES
An entry in this file would typically look like:
WARNINGS
The configuration file must be root owned and there should not be write permission set for group and others. Superuser should not provide
write permission for group and others for the paths mentioned in the configuration file.
is provided only for compatibility with existing or root applications that make use of relative pathnames while invoking catopen(3C). New
or root applications must use absolute pathnames while invoking catopen(3C).
This file is to be obsoleted at a future date.
