If you modify the MaxfailAuthCnt parameter, you must copy the

 

 

password policy file to the secondary security server and then restart the

 

 

kdcd on both the secondary and primary secondary servers.

 

 

MaxFailAuthCnt is the only parameter that the secondary servers read

NOTE

 

 

 

in the password policy file.

 

 

 

 

 

If you edit the password policy file on the primary server, the file must be copied to each secondary server, so that all the servers have an updated version of this file.

For more information on the Password policy file, refer to password.policy (4) manpage.
