SunScreen 3.2 Administration Guide

Using the Configuration Editor

The configuration editor lets you edit only one policy at a time. When you are in an editing session, others are unable to edit the same policy, although they can read it. If you modify any of the common objects, other people are unable to modify common objects until you save your changes.

To Edit a Policy

Invoke the configuration editor with the edit command, which is a subcommand of ssadm, and the name of your policy, such as Initial. Once the configuration editor is running, the prompt changes to: edit>.

    For a locally administered Screen, type:


    # ssadm edit policy_name
    

    For a remotely administered Screen, type:


    # ssadm -r Screen_name edit policy_name
