Hi Karthik

Below are few security files in HP-UX,

'/var/adm/inetd.sec' this is used to control the access of the services provided by inetd daemon.

'/etc/ftpd/ftpusers' to control the user level access of ftp service. if file not present this security check is skipped.

usage format of the files can learnt from man pages of these file names.

regds,
nishith.
