SAP Note 614971 - GW: Changes to the ACL list of the gateway (secinfo)

Component : Gateway/CPIC -

Summary :
This SAP Note details the regulation for starting external programs and registering external server programs on SAP Gateway using the 'secinfo' and 'reginfo' files, applicable from Kernel Release 46D onwards. As of Release 6.40, 'reginfo' should be used, governed by 'gw/reg_info'. The configuration requires specifying program (TP), host, and user parameters explicitly in uppercase. Incorrect keyword capitalization defaults to broad permissions, which can be security risks. Proper syntax and attention to detail in setting parameters (USER, HOST, USER-HOST) are critical for securing SAP Gateway from unauthorized access, as outlined in SAP Notes 1069911, 1298433, and 1473017.
