Trusted Solaris 8 HW 7/03 Release Notes

Trusted Solaris Label Encodings File Requires Coding for ILs (4329208)

Although Trusted Solaris 8 software does not support information labels (ILs), the chk_encodings command fails with the following error if the label_encodings file omits information about ILs.


# chk_encodings label_encodings
   Label encodings conversion error at line 37:
      Can't find INFORMATION LABELS specification.
      Found instead: "SENSITIVITY LABELS:".
   label_encodings: label encodings syntax check failed.

Workaround: Copy a valid SENSITIVITY LABELS: section in your label_encodings file, and rename the section to INFORMATION LABELS:, as in:


INFORMATION LABELS: 
...
WORDS: 
...
REQUIRED COMBINATIONS: 
...
COMBINATION CONSTRAINTS:
...

See the label_encodings(4) man page for more information.
