Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Help on processes not associated with a TTY Post 8593 by rwb1959 on Monday 15th of October 2001 08:48:54 AM

My apologies for the use of term without
defining it first. COTS - Commercial Off The
Shelf software.

On the disconnects, it would be better
to educate your users to "exit" rather than just
disconnect however, what I was really looking
for was... while they are logged on via
NetTeam, what software do the run on UNIX.
Normally, when a user disconnects, a hangup
signal is sent to all processes associated with
that "controlling terminal". Properly written
sofware should handle this and clean up the
session. If the sofware was developed in-house,
you should file a bug report to your development
folks. If it is Commercial (COTS) sofware,
complain to the sofware manufacturer.

prdb.db0

PRDB.DB0(5)							AFS File Reference						       PRDB.DB0(5)

NAME

       prdb.DB0, prdb.DBSYS1 - Contain the Protection Database and associated log

DESCRIPTION

       The prdb.DB0 file contains the Protection Database, which maps AFS user, machine, and group names to their respective IDs (AFS UIDs and
       GIDs) and tracks group memberships. The Protection Server (ptserver process) uses the information in the database to help the File Server
       grant data access to authorized users.

       The prdb.DBSYS1 file is a log file in which the Protection Server logs each database operation before performing it.  When an operation is
       interrupted, the Protection Server replays the log to complete the operation.

       Both files are in binary format and reside in the /var/lib/openafs/db directory on each of the cell's database server machines. When the
       Protection Server starts or restarts on a given machine, it establishes a connection with its peers and verifies that its copy of the
       database matches the copy on the other database server machines. If not, the Protection Servers call on AFS's distributed database
       technology, Ubik, to distribute to all of the machines the copy of the database with the highest version number.

       Always use the commands in the pts suite to administer the Protection Database. It is advisable to create an archive copy of the database
       on a regular basis, using a tool such as the UNIX tar command.
