Terminal Server Commands: C2CFG or C2CONFIG (186621)

SUMMARY

These commands run the Windows NT C2 Configuration Manager, which is used to help configure the security of a Windows NT Workstation, Windows NT Server, or a Windows Terminal Server. The C2 Configuration Manager may be used to change one or more security attributes on the system. Refer to the Windows NT Administration documentation for more information on what the correct settings are for the desired security level as well as for more information on defining and implementing a security policy. C2 Security

The National Computer Security Center (NCSC) is the United States government agency responsible for performing software product security evaluations. These evaluations are carried out against a set of requirements outlined in the NCSC publication Department of Defense Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria, which is commonly referred to as the Orange Book. Windows NT has been successfully evaluated by the NCSC at the C2 level as defined in the Orange Book. Because Windows NT supports C2 Level security, the workstation must be configured appropriately to apply this. Additionally, Windows NT supports security features that are not required to meet C2 Level security. The Windows NT C2 Security System Administrators Guide provides information on how to define and implement security on your system and should be reviewed for more information.
