DSXchange

Hi,

We are running the dsrpcd daemon as root process. Does this process access the /etc/shadow file?? if not how does it authenticates a user.

Thanks
Aravind

dsrpcd does not authenticate users. They are already authenticated before the connection request to the engine tier is made. The dsrpcd processes accesses dsrpcservices file to determine whether the node from which the request for the dscs service is acceptable and, if so, starts the corresponding executable (dsapi_server).
