Deciding Whether to Use HP-UX Integrated Login

Use HP-UX Integrated Login:

If you want to use an authentication technology other than the traditional UNIX mechanism as the login technology. For this release, this means using DCE Security Services.

If you want to obtain additional credentials from other authentication technologies after machine access is granted via the login technology. For this release, this means getting DCE credentials after logging in via the UNIX mechanism.

If each user can have the same password across all configured technologies.

If you want to configure DCE as the login technology, see “Deciding Whether to Integrate DCE with HP-UX Integrated Login” in this chapter.
