 2 
 3 Syntax as a command:  reclassify_seg path
 4 
 5 
 6 Function:  sets the access class of a segment equal to the access class
 7 of its containing directory.
 8 
 9 The reclassify_seg command is needed only if the site is using the AIM
10 access controls.
11 
12 
13 Arguments:
14 path
15    is the pathname of the segment to be reclassified.

17 
18 Access required:  The user must have access to the
19 system_privilege_gate to use this command.  Additionally, the user must
20 have modify permission specified on the ACL of the containing
21 directory.  However, the reclassification is performed without checking
22 the validation level of the process.  Therefore, reclassification of
23 ring 1 segments may be performed from the user ring.

26 Notes:  This command corrects one of the possible inconsistencies that
27 could cause a directory to be marked security-out-of-service by the
28 salvager.  However, the directory is not placed back into service by
29 this command.  (See the reset_soos command for that function.)

31 When the specified pathname is a ring 1 system segment (i.e., a segment
32 whose access class is greater than that of its containing directory),
33 this command makes it a ring 1 normal segment (i.e., a segment whose
34 access class is equal to that of its containing directory).
