OPENVMS - How to find out who modified the 'SYSTEM' a/c password in UAF

Hi ,

OPENVMS V7.3 or 8.3

Just wondering if I log in as myself  (as a priv user) - I then go into UAF > mod system/passwd='******' on a certain date

How do I find out and prove that it was me changed it on that certain date  - is there an audit facility - accounting etc ?

or some way of finding out that the command above was used by me on that date - either in a log somewhere or ?

 

Yes its for an auditor :(

$ ANALYZE/AUDIT/EVENT=(SYSUAF)/FULL SYS$MANAGER:

 

extracts the SYSUAF modification events from the Security Audit Journal.

Did you know, that OpenVMS has HELP ?!

 

Try $ HELP ANALYZE/AUDIT

and just in case it's not already enabled:

 

$ SET AUDIT/AUDIT/ENABLE=AUTHORIZATION

 

(and yes, you do need AUDIT/AUDIT).
