| | 25 | * Some commands tell me I'm not allowed to use them, why ? |
| | 26 | |
| | 27 | Some commands refuse to work when launched as a normal user, |
| | 28 | and output a message saying "You're not allowed to use this |
| | 29 | command." This is because their use is reserved to PyKota |
| | 30 | Administrators. A PyKota Administrator is any user allowed |
| | 31 | to read the pykotadmin.conf file. Beware : any user who can |
| | 32 | read this file can connect to PyKota's database in read+write |
| | 33 | mode, so take care of not opening a breach when modifying |
| | 34 | the permissions on this file. |
| | 35 | |
| | 36 | * What permissions should I use on PyKota's configuration files ? |
| | 37 | |
| | 38 | It's probably best to do this : |
| | 39 | |
| | 40 | $ chown pykota.pykota pykota.conf pykotadmin.conf |
| | 41 | $ chmod 640 pykota.conf |
| | 42 | $ chmod 600 pykotadmin.conf |
| | 43 | |
| | 44 | Then the user 'pykota' will be the only PyKota Administrator |
| | 45 | (with user 'root' of course), but all members of the 'pykota' |
| | 46 | group will be allowed to use unrestricted PyKota commands |
| | 47 | like repykota. |
| | 48 | |
