OSF TCB question

robo99 — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 18:49:01 GMT

Hi, I am auditing a system at a client, the system appears to have being using tcb at one stage, but now is not, password file contains the hashes in it. I asked them for the default policy of the box and they gave me /etc/auth/system/default, am I correct in assuming that this is tcb related and not enforced as the server is currently not employing enhanced security through a trusted computing base? Thanks Robo

For non-trusted mode file with configuration and password policies is /etc/default/security - http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60105/security.4.html

In trusted mode - /tcb/files/auth/system/default - http://docs.hp.com/en/B9106-90011/default.4.html
