Tamper-Resistant Server Configuration File

FairCom DB supports an optional tamper-resistant version of the server configuration file (ctsrvr.cfg) referred to as the "settings file," ctsrvr.set. Because entries in the settings file cannot be overridden, users cannot alter important aspects of the server configuration. A special activation key from FairCom can make the settings file mandatory, forcing FairCom DB to operate with only your specific settings. The settings file is encrypted to prevent unauthorized modifications.

The following keywords are not allowed in ctsrvr.set:

LOCAL_DIRECTORY, MULTILINE_STATUS_LOG_MESSAGE, FIPS_ENCRYPTION

Contact your FairCom office for additional information about this security feature as it requires a custom build of FairCom DB.
