If you want to allow LPD clients to access your system, be aware
of the following security issues.
These security issues are important for you to be aware of:
- To prevent a user from swamping your system with unwanted objects, be
sure that you have set adequate threshold limits for your auxiliary storage
pools (ASPs). You can display and set the thresholds for ASPs by using either
system service tools (SST) or dedicated service tools (DST). The Backup and
Recovery book provides more information about ASP thresholds.
- You can use the authority to output queues to restrict who
can send spooled files to your system. LPD users without a user ID use the
QTMPLPD user profile. You can give this user profile access to only a few
output queues.
