inactivate/disable user on a Trusted system

Hi,

I there a way to inactivate a user on an HP-UX system that runs in Trusted security mode?
We don't want to delete the user but for the moment we just want to disable the account.

With kind regards,

Kris

Re: inactivate/disable user on a Trusted system

To deactivate or disable an account that is set up on a Trusted System use
the command:
# /usr/lbin/modprpw -m alock=YES

To re-activate an account that is set up on a Trusted System use the command:
# /usr/lbin/modprpw -k

should also work

Hi Kris,

You can also use "sam" to do this.
