NoAbsolute — deny catalogs to read absolute filenames on the system
The directive specifies whether to prevent commands and tags (such as
[file]
) to read absolute filenames (any files) on the system.
In cases where the Interchange daemon has no permission to read the file , this
directive — of course — has no influence.
This should be enabled in multiuser environments to minimize security problems.
Note that this does not apply to tests for whether a file exists (as one
would do with [if file ...]
or similar). Such operations are
allowed regardless of NoAbsolute
.
