getprpw output of "alock=YES/NO"

Hi,

We have Trusted systems and I'm wondering what the "alock=no/yes" portion of the output means when I run:

/usr/lbin/getprpw

I'm creating lists of users that are deactivated on the systems, but some have alock=YES and then some have alock=NO.

Thanks,
KPS

Re: getprpw output of "alock=YES/NO"

hi,

alock means administrator lock. if it is YES, the 6 bit from lockout portion would be true (1).

for more info, man getprpw, search for alock.

regards.
