You can set up security without a file server by storing all the security files and the Security Configuration program on each local computer. The security files reside in a path called the security path, which the Security Configuration program defines.
Security also keeps another copy of the security files in a path called the backup path. Security uses this path when it cannot find the security path, for example, if the security path becomes unavailable.
Once you set up security and enable it on one computer, you must duplicate the security configuration on every node. The simplest way to do this is to copy your security files to every computer on your network. For a list of files to copy, refer to the Troubleshooting chapter.
Also, make sure you enable security on every node. Otherwise, security may not function properly.
