Arguments

 

rem_node

   OpenVMS usage:char_string
   type:         character-coded text string
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by descriptor-fixed-length string descriptor
   Remote node name of the proxy to be deleted from or modified
   in the proxy database. The rem_node argument is the address of
   a character-string descriptor pointing to the remote node name
   string.

   A remote node name consists of 1 to 1024 characters. No specific
   characters, format, or case are required for a remote node name
   string. All node names are converted to their DECnet for OpenVMS
   full name unless the PRX$M_BYPASS_EXPAND flag is set with the
   flags argument.

   Asterisk (*)  and percent sign (%) wildcards are allowed for the
   remote node specification. If you specify wildcards for the rem_
   node argument, the security server searches for an exact match
   to the specified remote node first. If it does not find an exact
   match, the server performs the requested operations on all of the
   matching proxies in the proxy database.
 

rem_user

   OpenVMS usage:char_string
   type:         character-coded text string
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by descriptor-fixed-length string descriptor
   Remote user name of the proxy to be deleted from or modified in
   the proxy database. The rem_user argument is the address of a
   character-string descriptor pointing to the user name string.

   A remote user name consists of 1 to 32 alphanumeric characters,
   including dollar signs ($),  underscores (_), and brackets
   ([ ]).  Any lowercase characters specified are automatically
   converted to uppercase.

   The rem_user argument can be specified in user identification
   code (UIC) format ([group, member]).  Brackets are allowed only
   if the remote user name string specifies a UIC. Group and member
   are character-string representations of octal numbers with no
   leading zeros.

   Asterisk (*)  and percent sign (%) wildcards are allowed for
   the remote user specification. If you specify wildcards for the
   rem_user argument, the server searches for an exact match to
   the specified remote user first. If it does not find an exact
   match, the server performs the requested operations on all of the
   matching proxies in the proxy database.
 

local_user

   OpenVMS usage:char_string
   type:         character-coded text string
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by descriptor-fixed-length string descriptor
   Local user name to delete from the proxy record specified by the
   rem_node and rem_user arguments in the proxy database. The local_
   user argument is the address of a character-string descriptor
   pointing to the local user name.

   A local user name consists of 0 to 32 alphanumeric characters,
   including dollar signs ($)  and underscores (_). If the local_
   user argument is not specified or has a length of 0, the server
   will delete the entire record or records specified by the rem_
   node and rem_user arguments from the proxy database.

   If the local_user argument is specified, the server will delete
   only the user name specified by the local_user argument from
   the record specified by the rem_node and rem_user arguments. The
   local_user argument can specify either the proxy's default user
   or a user name in the proxy's local users list.
 

flags

   OpenVMS usage:mask_longword
   type:         longword (unsigned)
   access:       read only
   mechanism:    by value
   Functional specification for the service and type of user the
   local_user argument represents. The flags argument is a longword
   bit mask wherein each bit corresponds to an option.

   Each flag option has a symbolic name. The $PRXDEF macro defines
   the following symbolic names:

   Symbolic Name      Description

   PRX$M_BYPASS_      The service should not convert the node name
   EXPAND             specified in the rem_node argument to its
                      corresponding DECnet full name. If this flag
                      is set, it is the caller's responsibility to
                      ensure that the fully expanded node name is
                      passed into the service.

   PRX$M_IGNORE_      The service should not wait for a return
   RETURN             status from the security server. No return
                      status from the server's function will be
                      returned to the caller.
   PRX$M_EXACT        The service should match exactly the remote
                      node and remote user and ignore wildcards.
