relax(1M)


relax -- change system security defaults

Synopsis

/usr/sbin/relax level

Description

relax changes selected system-wide security defaults to one of several predefined levels (high, improved, low, and traditional). The directories in /etc/security/seclevel are named for each level, and each directory contains two files:

etc_def
specifies files and values to be updated or removed in the directory /etc/default.

script
is a shell script which is run to make other changes to such settings as kernel parameters using idtune(1M), default umask settings by edits to various files, and other changes.

Files


/etc/security/seclevel/level
security level directory

/etc/default/*
files containing other current default settings

/etc/cshrc

/etc/inet/inetd.conf

/etc/lp/Systems

/etc/profile

/etc/shadow

/usr/lib/cron/at.allow

/usr/lib/cron/at.deny

/usr/lib/cron/cron.allow

/usr/lib/cron/cron.deny
files changed by /etc/security/seclevel/level/script

Examples

relax takes one argument, which should be the name of a directory in /etc/security/seclevel, for example:

relax improved

This reconfigures the system security settings to the ``improved'' level of security.

Notices

If the script for the level you select makes changes to the kernel configuration, these changes will not come into effect until the system is rebooted.
