Password database on 11.11 trusted system

[Greg Webber]

I am currently running HP-UX 11.11 and just converted my server to Trusted Mode. Our audit team has a script that is checking for the /tcb/files/system/pd_id_map to be present. This file is not present and I am wondering if this is a difference between HPUX11.0 and HPUX11.11. Does anyone have the answer?

Sorry for the typo, the file is /tcb/files/system/pw_id_map.
Thanks.

I recently converted two 11i systems to trusted mode - neither one has the file you mentioned. the only items under /tcb/files/auth/system are default, maxaid and pwhist

I do not have them on my 11.11 boxes either. I did some google searching and found this little blurb, however, it appears to be for true64, I feel that the same applies to 11.11:

4.3.7.3 The pw_id_map and gr_id_map Files Are Obsolete
The Enhanced Security routines pw_idtoname, pw_nametoid, gr_idtoname, and gr_nametoid (described in pw_mapping(3)) previously used the /etc/auth/system/pw_id_map and /etc/auth/system/gr_id_map files to find the required information for mapping names to numeric identifiers, and vice versa. The disk space required by those files imposed a limit on how many accounts a system could support.

The Enhanced Security routines no longer use the pw_id_map and gr_id_map files. If you are running Tru64 UNIX Version 4.0D or later and still have those files, it is recommended that you remove them to recover the space occupied on the root paritition
