You can only run getprpw(1m) if your system is converted to trusted:

This command is available only to the superuser in a trusted system.

What were you looking for? Try: logins -x -a -l aamir

>How can converted system to trusted?

Are you sure you want to do this? It is: (TO BE OBSOLETED)

You may want to look into SMSE:

https://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=SecurityExt

This only lists 11.23 so perhaps it is already on 11.31?

>Why my system is not trusted?

It isn't the default.

>why some command run on trusted mode?

Because it needs that special password database.

Trusted mode security implements additional system access protection from user authentication perspective.
Check with application administrators before implementing it.
below command will alter system in to trusted mode.

# tsconvert

This will creates a new directory structure /tcb/files/auth that contains sub-directories "a" to "z". Each
sub-directory contains files for user acounts that begin with the sub-directories name.

To restore system back to standard security level

# tscovert -r
