Sfgroups,

IF you want to be able to audit users and events on the system, you will have to convert to a trusted system if you haven't, and then go enable the auditing that you want to.
This is done in SAM, auditing and security.

Hi:

If you have the file 'tcb/files/auth/system/default' then your system is trusted.

Hi

You may use the following command to check:
/usr/lbin/getprdef -r

Hi sfgroups,

Good day to you !
From the man page :

# man 4 passwd

'When the system has been converted to a trusted system, the encrypted passwords can be accessed only from the protected password database, /tcb/files/auth/*/*. Any user entry in the Network Information System database also must have an entry in the protected password database.'

Hope this information can help you.

Cheers,

Sfgroups,

You can run # /usr/lbin/getprdef
and it will return if the system is trusted.

Cheers,
Raj.
