How do delay login prompt for unsuccessful login

Hi,

Is it possible to achieve the delay login prompt for failed login in a non-trusted system. If so, how to do it?


Thanks in advance,
YC

Re: How do delay login prompt for unsuccessful login

You can use SAM to adjust this :

Auditing and Security
System Security Policies
Terminal Security Policies
Unsuccessful Login Tries Allowed: 1
Delay Between Login Tries (sec.): 2

Just one suggestion, it is very easy if are in trusted mode.

Sorry that is not going to work....
The suggestion says to run an underlying program called /usr/lbin/modprdef of course with some options. This program will only work on a 'trusted system'. If you run this program (modprdef) from the command line on a non-trusted system, you will get a message that the system is not trusted.
Anyone for a Mutiny ?

Hi Anil,

Understand it can be done in trusted system, what about non-trusted system?

Do agree with you, that is with trusted system.

Trying to know how I can do it when system is in untrusted mode.
