Note: The user ID associated with the daemon in /etc/inetd.conf requires
superuser authority. See
z/OS UNIX System Services Planning for a description of the kinds of authority
defined for daemons.
The files used by z/OS® UNIX REXECD and their locations
in the z/OS UNIX file system are as follows:
- /etc/services
- The ports for each application are defined here.
- /etc/syslog.conf
- The configuration parameters for usage of syslogd are defined
in this file.
- /etc/inetd.conf
- The
configuration parameters for all applications started by inetd are
defined in this file.
- /usr/sbin/orexecd
- The server.
If BPX.DAEMON is specified, then the sticky bit
must be set on, and /usr/sbin/orexecd, and orexecd can be in an authorized MVS™ data set.
- /usr/lib/nls/msg/C/rexdmsg.cat
- The message catalog used by the z/OS UNIX REXECD server.
Note: This
is not an actual member at this location, but it is a symbolic link
to the part in /usr/lpp/tcpip/nls/msg/C/*.
Where the server
looks for the message catalog (rexdmsg.cat) depends on the value of
NLSPATH and LANG environment variables. If you want to store the msg.cats
elsewhere, you need to change the NLSPATH or the LANG environment
variables. If rexdmsg.cat does not exist, by default, the software
uses the messages hard-coded within the software. These messages
duplicate the English message catalog that is shipped with the product.
