Remarks

A console can be secured by either the system administrator entering a console command (SECURE CONSOLE) or by calling the SetConsoleSecuredFlag function. Once the console secured flag has been set, the only way to disable the flag is to down server.

A secured console disables the following:

  • NLM search paths. NLM applications can be loaded only from the boot partition and from sys:system.

  • Keyboard entry into the debugger.

  • Modification of the server date and time.
