Both novice users and those familiar with the Solaris Operating System can use online man pages to obtain information about the system and its features. A man page is intended to answer concisely the question “What does it do?” The man pages in general comprise a reference manual. They are not intended to be a tutorial.
The following describes each Trusted Extensions man page section:
Section 1 describes commands that are unique to Solaris Trusted Extensions software. This section includes a man page, dtappsession, which extends CDE functionality.
Section 1M describes Trusted Extensions commands that are used chiefly for system maintenance and administration.
Section 2 describes the Trusted Extensions system calls.
Section 3TSOL describes functions that are exclusive to Trusted Extensions software.
Section 3XTSOL describes functions that extend X Windows software for Solaris Trusted Extensions. These functions are exclusive to Trusted Extensions software.
Section 4 outlines the formats of Trusted Extensions files. Where applicable, the C structure declarations for the file formats are given.
Section 5 contains a PAM module and a labels description.
Solaris Trusted Extensions man pages follow the generic format for Solaris OS man pages. For more information and details about each section, see man(1) and the Introductory man pages to each section.
