C Quick setup examples

This guide offers quick setup examples for installing WLI and creating file access policies.

14.On HP-UX Serviceguard clusters, consider cluster-wide installation. For details, consult “HP Serviceguard considerations” (page 37).

C.2 Configuring WLI

For details on configuring WLI, follow the procedure in “Configuring” (page 25), including generating the first administrator key as described in Section 5.2 (page 25). An administrator key can authorize execution of all WLI commands.

C.2.1 Authorizing an administrator key

The procedure to authorize an administrator key is described in “Configuring” (page 25). For example, assume adm is a user listed in /etc/passwd and owns the recovery key /home/adm/ recov.pvt authorized during WLI configuration. User adm enters the following to authorize /home/adm/adm.pvt as an administrator key:

%wliadm -n adm.admin1 -k /home/adm/recov.pvt /home/adm/adm.pub

A prompt appears for the passphrase for the recovery key.

As mentioned in “Configuring” (page 25), reboot the system to complete WLI configuration.

C.2.2 Authorizing a user key

You can optionally authorize user keys to generate file access policies and signatures. Authorizing the user key is necessary for WLI to enforce file access policies generated by a user key. To authorize a user key:

%wlicert -i<user>.<instance> -k<privkey> <pubkey> where:

<user> A valid user from /etc/passwd

<instance> An arbitrary string chosen by the user

<privkey> Any administrator private key
