Getting Started Setting up E-Business Server Default file locations on Unix The first time you start E-Business Server, the software checks to see if PGPPATH is set to a particular pathname. • If PGPPATH is defined, the software looks for the E-Business Server configuration file (pgp.cfg) in the directory specified by PGPPATH. If pgp.cfg does not exist in the directory specified, E-Business Server creates it using /usr/local/ebs/pgp-template.cfg or a pgp-template.cfg file in the same location as the E-Business Server executable. • If PGPPATH is not defined, the software looks for pgp.cfg in the user's home directory, as defined by the environment variable HOME. If pgp.cfg does not exist, E-Business Server creates the .pgp directory within the home directory and creates the pgp.cfg file within .pgp. E-Business Server then places the keyring files, the randseed file, and the group file in the .pgp directory off your home directory (HOME/.pgp) after you run E-Business Server for the first time. As the administrator of E-Business Server for Unix, you can use multiple configuration files for flexibility in configuration. You can set default options in a system preferences configuration file, /usr/local/ebs/pgp.cfg. If this file exists, the default settings in this file are used unless overridden by settings specified in the other E-Business Server configuration files. E-Business Server checks for the existence of /usr/local/ebs/pgp-policy.cfg. If this file is present, E-Business Server reads this configuration file after parsing the normal configuration file and command-line options. The settings in the pgp-policy.cfg override most settings in the normal configuration file, pgp.cfg. The only parameters that the pgp-policy.cfg file cannot override are the following parameters-PUBRING, SECRING, RANDSEED, MYNAME, DEFAULT-KEY and ALIAS. Default file locations on Windows NT The first time you start E-Business Server, the software checks to see if PGPPATH is defined. • If PGPPATH is defined, the software puts the pgp.cfg file in the directory specified by PGPPATH. • If PGPPATH is not defined, the software checks to see if the environment variable USERPROFILE is defined. • If USERPROFILE is defined, the software puts the pgp.cfg file in the \Personal\pgp directory. If pgp.cfg does not exist, E-Business Server creates it within this directory. • If USERPROFILE is not defined, the software puts the pgp.cfg file in \pgp. • E-Business Server then places the keyring and group files in the \Personal\pgp directory after you run E-Business Server for the first time. • E-Business Server places the randseed file in the \Profiles\All Users\Application Data\Network Associates\pgp directory. Default file locations on Windows 2000 The first time you start E-Business Server, the software checks to see if PGPPATH is defined. • If PGPPATH is defined, the software puts the pgp.cfg file in the directory specified by PGPPATH. • If PGPPATH is not defined, the software checks to see if the environment variable USERPROFILE is defined. • If USERPROFILE is defined, the software puts the pgp.cfg file in the \My Documents\pgp directory. If pgp.cfg does not exist, E-Business Server creates it within this directory. • If USERPROFILE is not defined, the software puts the pgp.cfg file in \pgp. • E-Business Server then places the keyring and group files in the \My Documents\pgp directory after you run E-Business Server for the first time. • E-Business Server places the randseed file in the \Application Data\Network Associates\pgp directory. 13 E-Business Server™ 8.6 Product Guide
