2502.0. "IMPM and DNS access req." by ICS::WOODCOCK () Thu Mar 05 1992 15:13

Hi folks,

We have been doing some testing in DEC: and may have found an anomoly
with the access needed to place an object on a map. If the 'NODE' object
has been registered via another MCC I can issue FCL commands against
the 'node' successfully having only READ and TEST access. However, if I
try to place this 'node' on a map with found it required READ, TEST, and
WRITE access on the object using IMPM. This inconsistency doesn't appear
appropriate and does cause a security issue for MCC to use the namespace.
Can anyone comment on whether this should be the proper access needed and
if there are any plans to change this before FCS?

thanks for any info,
brad...

2502.1Adding entity to MAP modifies DNA object attributesTRM::KWAKThu Mar 05 1992 15:5216
    
    RE: .0
    
    Placing an entity on a map means that you are modifying/creating
    the attributes of bothe the entity and the domain.
    
    Suppose you add .lkg.foo to a domain .a.mydomain, you are modifying or
    creating "MCC_DOMAIN_LIST" attribute of ".lkg.foo" and 
    "DNS$Members" attribuite of ".a.mydomain".
    
    Under FCL, if you issue command 
    	MCC> create domain .a.mydomain mem .lkg.foo
    
    you need READ, WRITE ands TEST access on both node and domain objects.
