Overview - Control Programs for Managing the DCE Security Service

You can perform most of the management tasks for the DCE Security Service by using the DCE control program (dcecp). However, some of the components of this service require you to use other control programs provided in DCE.

This topic provides information about the commands that the DCE control program offers for DCE Security Service management. The topic also describes the commands that the registry editor program (rgy_edit) provides for maintaining local registries.

Control programs that you use for security-related management tasks from time to time, such as password_export and sec_create_db, are not covered in this topic. These programs are described in subsequent topics of this guide along with the instructions for performing the tasks.
