pwconv

I accidently :( ran the pwconv command on my hpux 10.20 system and need to change it back. The command pwunconv does not seem to work on Hpux. Greatfull for any hints that will change my system back from the Secure password state.

Re: pwconv

Hi Patrik,

Try unconverting the system from trusted mode - run

/usr/lbin/tsconvert -r

Re: pwconv

It sounds to me like you've gone and trusted your system. If you really want to convert it back, run this:

# /usr/lbin/tsconvert -r


Running this will tell if your system is trusted or not:

# /usr/lbin/getprpw

Here is an interesting discussion

Re: pwconv

Hi all,
Thx for your replies, the tsconvert -r fixed it. My system is back at the untrusted mode!
I saw the command earlier at the man-page for pwconv but there were no man-page associated with it!
Once again, thanks a lot!

Brgds
