Title : WSUPER.EXE: switch SUPERVISOR equivalence on/off
Keywords: SUPERVISOR EQUIVALENCE RIGHTS SECURITY UTILITY WINDOWS
Enhanced Windows version of the NetWare/DOS tool SUPER.ZIP (NetWire
NovLib 16). WSUPER.EXE allows you to switch SV equivalence on/off
when needed. Do your daily work as normal user, and be SV only when
needed. No security gap, since you have to have SV equivalence
before being able to switch it on/off. (Public domain by Wolfgang
Schreiber)
Background:
"SUPER" can modify the security byte of your bindery property
SECURITY_EQUALS to 0x22 (read/write object). This allows the
user to change his/her own security equivalences.
Then the Supervisor equivalence can be removed/added as needed.
SUPER allows a user who in Supervisor equivalent to do the daily work
as normal user, while Supervisor equivalence is available when needed.
This reduces the risk of accidental damage to files caused by viruses,
carelessness, or unattended workstations.
The NetWare tool SECURITY.EXE will notice that the bindery
access level is not set to default. This is intended.
This program was written by Wolfgang Schreiber in Borland's Turbo
Pascal for Windows.
A DOS version is available on NetWire (NovLib 16) as SUPER.ZIP
