Section 5 Access Control and Set-up
This sections shows you how to make the most of your Axis CD-
ROM server. You will find out how to:
•
Apply access restrictions to the server and individual CD-ROMs.
•
Set-up the CD-ROM server.
CD-ROM Access Control
The Axis CD-ROM server offers the possibility to restrict user access
to individual CD-ROMs as well as to the CD-ROM server
configuration files. It is also possible to limit the number of users
simultaneously accessing any CD-ROM in order to comply with
licensing agreements.
As mentioned in “The CD-ROM server File System” on page 23, the
volumes folder contain text files that control access to the CD-ROMs.
Up to 25 CD-ROM access control files can be kept in the volumes
folder at any time. When the limit is reached, the oldest file is
discarded when a new CD-ROM is inserted.
Beside a file for each CD-ROM that has been inserted into a
connected drive, the following files control access to the CD-ROM
server itself:
•
root.txt – access to the root level
•
cd.txt – access to the cd folder
•
config.txt – access to the config folder
•
volumes.txt – access to the volumes folder
In addition, the volumes folder contains the defaults.txt file, which is
used as a template for the access control file of a newly inserted CD-
ROM. By editing this file, you may define default access restrictions
for new CD-ROMs.
