Issue/Introduction:

Summary:

We do not want to use the seini tool to modify configuration files because the information output to the seaudit file is rather limited and we know that selang can achieve the same results but with more valuable output in the audit file. An example of selang commands used to modify configuration settings are detailed below.

Instructions:

To make config changes (for example; in seos.ini) via the selang shell submit;

selang

env config

er config seos.ini section(seos) token(parent_pmd) value([email protected])

or from a shell prompt

selang -c "env config; er config seos.ini section(seos) token(parent_pmd) value([email protected])"

To see the resulting output in the seaudit (in this example on a Unix box) please run

seaudit -a | grep -i UPDATE | grep -i CONFIG | grep -i seos.ini

Additional Information:

For more detailed information about selang please see the selang Reference Guide
