NAME

       devassign - device assignment database file for a trusted system

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       The system supports a single device assignment database that contains entries for local login terminals.

       The  format  of the terminal control database file is identical to other trusted system authentication database files. For more information
       on the file format, see authcap(4).  The file consists of keyword field identifiers and values for those fields.  The  keyword  identifiers
       supported and their use include:

       This field specifies a comma separated list of aliases that refer to the same
		      device  defined  by  the	entry.	Use  of this field avoids the need to replicate device assignment database entries for all
		      device aliases.

       This field specifies the device that is described by the entry.
		      Device types supported include:

			   The device is assigned as a local login terminal device.

       This field, if specified, contains a comma separated list of user names that
		      are permitted to use the device for login or the import/export of data.  If the list is not present, all users are permitted
		      to  use the device. If the list is present, it is searched for a match by the login program to determine if the user is per-
		      mitted to use the device.

EXAMPLES

       The following is an example of a device assignment database entry for a terminal device assigned as a login device:

WARNINGS

       Remote terminals (ptys) should not be added to the or databases.  Device name formats treated as ptys by login are:

	      where	  x is a letter, and y is a hex number
	      where	  x is a letter, and y is a hex number

	      HP-UX 11i Version 3 is the last release to support
	      trusted systems functionality.
