HP-UX Host Intrusion Detection System Version 4.7 Administrator Guide HP-UX 11i v3 (766144-001, March 2014)

TRANSPORT_NAME[index]=tcp
NDD_NAME[index]=tcp_conn_request_max
NDD_VALUE[index]=value
Where:
• index is a shell array index, as described in the file,
• value is the value to be assigned.
For example, if this is the first entry in the file and you want to set the value of
tcp_conn_request_max to 4096 enter the following:
TRANSPORT_NAME[0]=tcp
NDD_NAME[0]=tcp_conn_request_max
NDD_VALUE[0]=4096
The new value is applied on the next system boots.
3. To apply the new value immediately, enter the following command:
# ndd -c /etc/rc.config.d/nddconf
To verify that the new value is active, use the ndd -get command as described in Step 1.
Restricting Permissions
HP-UX HIDS files and programs are delivered with the strictest usable permissions. Only user ids
is allowed any access, and the superuser (root) is not permitted to execute the programs. In addition,
most files must be owned by user ids or HP-UX HIDS cannot run.
Table 2 lists the proper runtime permissions.
