Trusted system - protected password

[Kim Kendall]

I inherited a system that has the /tcb/files/auth/ password scheme. The only one of the bunch like this.

Is there a way to move back to the standard password mechanism?

Hi Kim,

Couple of ways

1) SAM Auditing and Security -> Audited Users -> Actions -> Unconvert system
2) /usr/lbin/tsconvert -r

Make a safe copy of /etc/passwd before doing either & check the passwd file using ckpw command after to make sure it's OK.

HTH,
Jeff

HI
The command #/usr/lbin/tsconvert -r will convert the system to non-trusted mode.

Thanks.

Hi

/usr/lbin/tsconvert -r to untrusted and /usr/lbin/tsconvert -c to convert it back.

Also use SAM to change system as trusted.
