How do I convert back to a non-trusted system?
Will this mess things up on the system.

Thanks Andrew

Hi Andrew,

/usr/lbin/tsconvert -r

And no, it shouldn't.

To convert to non-trusted --

# /usr/lbin/tsconvert -r

No this should not mess anything up. You should just wind up with the encrypted passwords back in the /etc/password file.

HI,
"/usr/lbin/tsconvert -r" is the command to revert back. Take a look at doc attached.

Do people have to be logged off the system?
Will the reset the passwords?

Thanks Andrew

Hi (again) Andrew

No & no.

Rgds,

No it will not reset passwords, only converting TO trusted will expire passwords.

I don't think users have to be logged off, but I would do it when there are as few as possible logged on.

The /usr/lbin/tsconvert-r does not work.
Any idea???

What's the error? Granted I haven't done it a lot, but the only problem I've run into was converting to Trusted System due to majorly invalid username entries. COnverting back to untrusted is pretty smooth.

[Andrew_234]

The error is
sh: /usr/lbin/tsconvert-r

Hi Andrew,

Is there a space between tsconvert and the -r ?

# /usr/lbin/tsconvert -r

Andrew,
# /usr/lbin/tsconvert -r

Use space between tsconvert and -r. -r is the switch to the command tsconvert. That works.

In the menu of sam that converted the system you can actually unconvert the system in sam. I recommend that since it will be logged when it was done and it will be done successfully.
