19.5 Setting Up Security for RConsoleJ

You can change the agent password to ensure that RConsoleJ sessions are secure.

To change the agent password for a remotely managed NetWare server:

  1. At the NetWare Console prompt, enter unload rconag6 to unload rconag6.nlm.

  2. Enter rconag6 encrypt.

  3. Enter a new password.

  4. Enter the TCP port number.

    The default is 2034.

  5. Enter the SPX port number.

    The default is 16800.

  6. Enter y when prompted to save the following command line in the ldrconag.ncf file.

    If you enter n, the ldrconag.ncf file is not updated. The new password is valid only for the current session. If you load RCONAG6 from the ldrconag.ncf file later, the previously saved password is used.
