account locking untrusted system

Is it possible to lock a user account after 3 unsuccessful attempts on an untrusted system.

Running HP-UX 11.11

Also, can this be set up on a per user basis?


Tks

I do not think you can do that. Without truested mode, you can put some restrictions, but not this.

man 4 security for details.

Belinda,

of restrictions you need to convert your system trusted mode.
