Usage

Description
The secinfo (“security information”) command displays a keyword that represents your AccuRev authorization level.
‘AccuRev login’ authorization method
With this authorization method, you establish your AccuRev user identity with the login command.
- authuser — you are logged in with a username that has a non-empty password.
- anyuser — you are logged in with a username that has an empty password.
- notauth — you are not logged in.
‘Custom’ authorization method
With this authorization method, you establish your AccuRev user identity (“principal-name”) using some external user-authentication method. For example, to authenticate via an LDAP server, an LDAP authentication trigger intercepts the normal processing of the login command, and uses the specified login name to authenticate against the login names stored on the LDAP server. Each username used to access AccuRev must exist both in the AccuRev's user database and on the LDAP server for the authentication trigger to work. The AccuRev user name must match the user on the LDAP server exactly.
