Re: Password and login related Information.
1.The /etc/passwd file is used to authenticate a user at login time for standard HP-UX. The file contains descriptions of every account on the HP-UX system. Each entry consists of seven fields, separated by colons.
robin:*:102:99:RobinTewes:/mnt/robin:/bin/csh
2.Protected password database files are stored in the /tcb/files/auth hierarchy. User authentication profiles are stored in these directories based on the first letter of the user account name.
It contains following:
User name and user ID.
Encrypted password.
Account owner.
Boot flag - whether the user can boot to single user mode or not.
Audit ID and audit flag (whether audit is on or not).
Minimum time between password change.
Password maximum length.
Password expiration time, after which the password must be changed.
Password lifetime, after which the account is locked.
Time of last successful and unsuccessful password change.
Absolute time (date) when the account will expire.
Maximum time allowed between logins before account is locked.
Number of days before expiration when warning will appear.
Whether passwords are user-generated or system-generated.
Whether triviality check is performed on user-generated password.
Type of system-generated passwords.
Whether null passwords are allowed for this account.
User ID of the last person to change the password, if not the account owner.
Time periods when this account can be used for login.
The terminal or remote hosts associated with the last successful and unsuccessful logins to this account.
Number of unsuccessful login attempts; cleared upon successful login.
Maximum number of login attempts allowed before account is locked.
3. you can also go for /etc/default/security

Re: Password and login related Information.
Thanks for your quick response.
I found that there is tcb folder on root in my system i.e. in /usr/newconfig/tcb/files/auth.
is this a correct path?
