Need to go from TRUST to UNTRUSTED System ASAP

Laurie_2 — Fri, 10 May 2002 18:44:36 GMT

Hi All,

I have a brand new L3000 (no user logins set
up)...It's 11.0.

I went into SAM and made it a TRUSTED system.

I did this too fast. We need to move all the
accounts over and then do this TRUSTED system.

Can someone please tell me how to go from
a TRUST to an UNTRUST System?

I want to go back to being UNTRUSTED?
(sounds werid)

TIA,
Laurie

Hi Laurie:

You can use:

# tsconvert -r
# sam

for bringing back from trusted mode.

What are you trying to do that requires you to be untrusted in order to set up the users?

Unless it is third party software, you should be able to create the accounts...

There is no

tsconvert -r

Can you give me the full path name. My
system can't find this tsconvert

Hi Laurie,

Try this,

SAM --> Autditing and security --> audited events --> actions --> unconvert system now --> yes --> exit sam

or try,

tsconvert -r

to convert back to trusted,

tsconvert -c

Hope this helps.

Hi:

# /usr/lbin/tsconvert -r

You can also do this from SAM. It's easy and safe too

1. the safest way is SAM, you can find a "unconvert" option.

2. or you can use command
/usr/lbin/tsconvert -r

Thank you I found it under /etc/tsconvert -r

We are coping over the /etc/passwd file from
our old system. It's got over a hundred logins
so I don't what to re-add them.

We are migrating from one box to the new
computer.

Thanks for your help,
Laurie

If you haven't already, you may want to check to see that /etc/group is consistant between the 2 machines also. That way you don't end up with users with the wrong default group or something. That will also help if you are migrating the data across also, as the files will not have group assignments screwed up...

Hope it helps
