HP ALLBASE/BRW Reference Manual

Security 

To prevent someone from sending messages without authority, it is
recommended that you require users to specify a password before signing
on to HP Desk.  Authorized sender names and passwords can be entered in
the BRWCONF file as described earlier in this chapter.  Passwords are
encrypted in the BRWCONF file to ensure that security is not compromised.


NOTE When you store the passwords in the BRWCONF file, you can maintain or change them regularly without having to alter or recompile the HP ALLBASE/BRW reports.
Security When You Switch Destinations If you switch the destination on a break level, only the headings and footings for that break and for any lower-level breaks are delivered. This is to secure the data on these linesets. For example, if you switched the destination on break level 3, only break levels 3 to 9 would be delivered. Information in breaks 1 or 2 and the report breaks would not be delivered. In the example report the report footing would not be sent as it contains the total turnover for all areas. Security When You Print Reports If you deliver a report via HP Desk, the report will be delivered and not printed (for example, on the lineprinter) unless you select to print the report in addition on the Define HPDesk Delivery screen. If you select to switch the destination of a report on a break level, any higher break levels will not be delivered. However, this does not affect your printed report. That is, if you select to print the report for yourself, in addition to sending the report, the entire report is printed for you.
