Re: accounts are never locked on non trusted systems

Hi Arun:

This is not true if we use the phrase "trusted system" in the sense of "classic" HP-UX -- i.e. before its implementation of the shadow password file. See:

Hi Arun,

You need to configure, how and when the accounts got locked/deactivate.
Best wishes,

Ganesh.

Re: accounts are never locked on non trusted systems

Hi Arun,

NOT TRUE,!! than there is no point of converting the Server to trusted system ..:)

Once trusted system, User account gains more security settings,

Example:-
password expiry,
passwd length,
unsucessfull attempte not allowed 3 tries

Thanks,
Johnson
