greater than the server DCE_PROTECTION level. If this entry is not speciﬁed,

cell-wide default protection is used. The options follow:

DCE.TNS_ADDRESS_OID

DCE.TNS_ADDRESS_OID is an optional parameter that enables you to specify an

alternative to the default value as follows:

DCE.TNS_ADDRESS_OID=1.3.22.1.x.x

DCE.LOCAL_CELL_USERNAMES

DCE.LOCAL_CELL_USERNAMES is an optional parameter that deﬁnes the format

used to specify the principal name (username), with or without the cell name. The

choice you make for this parameter should be determined by whether or not users

are making connections across cells—with unique names. The default for

DCE.LOCAL_CELL_USERNAMES is now TRUE (it was set to FALSE in the DCE

Integration 2.1.6 release).

The associated options follow:

Option Description

NONE Perform no protection for the current connection

DEFAULT Use the default cell-wide protection level

CONNECT Perform protection only when the client establishes a

relationship with the server

CALL Perform protection only at the beginning of each remote

procedure call when the server receives the request

PKT Ensure that all data received is from the expected client

PKT_INTEG Ensure and verify that none of the data transferred between the

client and server has been modiﬁed

PRIVACY Perform protection as speciﬁed by all of the previous levels and

also encrypt each RPC argument value and all user data in each

call
