How to enable OS level authentication from command line?
Hi,
I am able to enable OS level authentication for an instance from the UI (System Administration => Security => System Security => Authentication/CSP Session Options) but is there a way this can be done from command line as well?
Thanks,
Raghu

It looks like the AutheEnabled property of Security.System is the equivalent. See class doc here.
Use the Get and Modify classmethods to fetch and update values.
Thanks for the pointer. I couldn't figure out exact code to set "AuthEnabled" property so instead, I used "Import" function to modify it. I found the exact value for "OS Authentication" by exporting from another instance where I enabled it from UI.
Thanks,

The AutheEnabled property is an integer value that is treated as a set of bitflags. Here's one way of decomposing it:
%SYS>set sc=##class(Security.System).Get(,.props)
%SYS>for bit=0:1:31 if $zboolean(props("AutheEnabled"),2**bit,1) write !,"Bit ",bit," is set"
Bit 4 is set
Bit 5 is set
Bit 6 is set
Bit 10 is set
%SYS>
Documentation for the $ZBOOLEAN function is here. You can use the OR operation (third argument = 7) to set a specific bit within the existing value. For example, to ensure bit 4 (whose meaning is AutheOS) is set:
set props("AutheEnabled")=$zboolean(props("AutheEnabled"),2**4,7)

Thanks. Will give it a try.
Thanks John, this was invaluable. Works for Security.Services class to modify %Services_* too, in case anyone else stumbles across this in the future!
Cheers
Is it possible to set this using iris merge functionality?
