Connect to Replication Server using a client application such as isql or a custom application program you create with Open Client Client-Library. The isql utility includes command line options that enable network-based security services for the connection to Replication Server.
Table 8-11 describes the command line options that you can use with isql to enable network-based security on the connection.
Option name |
Meaning |
|---|---|
-K keytab_file |
Use only with DCE security. It specifies a DCE keytab file that contains the security key for the user logging into the server. Keytab files can be created with the DCE dcecp utility—see your DCE documentation for more information. Replication Server must have read permission on this file.
|
-S server_name |
Specifies the server’s network name. If unified login is enabled, this option also specifies the principal user. |
-V security_options |
Specifies unified login. With this option, the user must log in to the network’s security system before running the isql utility. If a user specifies the -U option, the user must supply the network user name known to the security mechanism; any password supplied with the -P option is ignored. -V can be followed by a string of options that enable additional security services. Here is a list of options and the services they enable.
|
-X |
Specifies that connections are made with encrypted passwords. |
-Z security_mechanism |
Specifies the name of a security mechanism to use on the connection to Replication Server. Supported security mechanism names are listed in the libtcl.cfg file. If no security mechanism is supplied, the default is used, which is the first security mechanism listed under SECURITY in libtcl.cfg. |
For Kerberos users: Specify the location of the key
table file using the key table registry key entry (Windows 2000
or 2003).
