• To disable an area, highlight it and press d.

User and group privileges are managed separately. Group privileges apply to all users
for which it is their primary group, as shown in /etc/passwd. Users can acquire a
privilege individually, through their groups, or both.
When privileged users run /usr/sbin/smh, they run text-based HP SMH. They have
superuser status in the defined areas and will only see those HP SMH areas in the
menu. All other areas of HP SMH are hidden.
When users without special access to HP SMH try to run text-based smh, they receive
a message like the following:
Neither the user 'allanp' nor his primary group 'users' has
Restricted sam privileges. Exiting!
Using the X Window System
Web-based HP SMH has a few commands and displays that require that your local
system (the client) and the target system be running an X Window System™ client. On
an HP-UX system (client or target), this is provided by the X11-RUN fileset, which is
normally installed. On a non-HP-UX client system, such as one running Microsoft®
Windows®, you may need to install a third-party client program.
Text-based HP SMH has text alternatives to the X Window displays if DISPLAY is not
set or there is no active X Window client.
Setup for an HP-UX Local System
If you are logged in to the target system from an HP-UX client system, you need to do
the following:
• On your HP-UX client system, enable it to receive X Window screens from the
target system:
# /usr/bin/X11/xhost + targetsystem
The xhost command is described in the xhost(1) manpage.
• On the target system, set your DISPLAY environment variable to the domain name
or IP address of your client system:
# export DISPLAY=clientsystem:0.0
