RE: Security questions

Did you take a look at the Web Serving documentation in the Info Center? This 
is a pretty broad topic and how it works (beyond basic concepts) varies 
somewhat between the Original and Apache based HTTP servers. Expect the 
documentation to be scattered about in the manuals. 

Besides basic OS/400 protection, you also have file system access control 
defined in the configuration and document protection based on a multitude of 
things (physical or local path, IP addresses, basic authentication, access 
control lists, etc...). Also, on the topic of basic authentication, you can use 
OS/400 profiles, validation list entries, or LDAP/Active Directory entries.

Subject: [WEB400] Security questions


Can anyone direct me to any documentation in regards to http security on
the AS/400? I'm running some cgi programs on our AS/400 and I need to be
able to explain as much as I can about security as possible. I know how
the OS/400 security works in regards to objects, but I understand little
in the way of http security.
