Chapter 3
Understanding Erpcd
Remote Annex Server Tools for Windows NT
®
uses the expedited
remote procedure call daemon (erpcd) running on a Windows NT
®
server. Erpcd responds to all Remote Annex boot, dump, and ACP
security requests. ACP’s eservices file, stored in the \etc directory, lists
the services that erpcd provides. Eservices includes controls for:
• The block file server (bfs) program sends boot files to a Remote
Annex and collects dump files from a Remote Annex.
• The Access Control Protocol (ACP) program provides security
when you define a Windows NT
®
server as a security server.
See Document References on page -6 to find sources of
additional information about erpcd, the acp_userinfo,
acp_keys, and acp_dialup files. The Remote Annex
Server Tools implements erpcd differently, because it
uses Windows NT domain authentication.
This chapter describes the files you can edit. It includes:
• Editing Files
• Using the acp_userinfo File
• Using the acp_keys File
• Using the acp_dialup File
