Chapter 18 Configuring SGM Security

Configuring SGM User-Based Access

Step 3 If you have already configured the type of SGM security authentication you want to use, skip to Step 4.

Otherwise, configure the type of SGM security authentication you want to use:

Local authentication allows you to create user accounts and passwords local to the SGM system. When using this method, you can use SGM User-Based Access commands manage user names, passwords, and access levels.

To enable local authentication, enter the following command:

#./sgm authtype local

Solaris authentication uses standard Solaris-based user accounts and passwords, as specified in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file. Authentication can be provided by the local /etc/passwd file or from a distributed Network Information Services (NIS) system. You can use all SGM User-Based Access commands except the following commands:

sgm disablepass

sgm passwordage

sgm userpass

You must use Solaris commands, such as passwd, to manage passwords.

Users also cannot change their passwords using the SGM client. Instead, they must manage their passwords on the external authentication servers, using Solaris commands, such as passwd.

All new passwords take effect the next time SGM automatically synchronizes local SGM passwords with Solaris, or you can manually synchronize passwords at any time using the sgm syncusers command.

In addition, if you have enabled Solaris authentication, you must be logged in as the root user, not a super user, to use the following SGM commands:

sgm adduser

sgm disableuser

sgm enableuser

sgm updateuser
