ITO Security

Passwords on UNIX Managed Nodes

The ITO default operator opc_op cannot login into the system via login,
telnet, etc. due to a

*

entry in the

/etc/passwd

file. Furthermore,

.rhosts

entries are not provided. If you want to provide a virtual

terminal or application startup (requiring a Window (Input/Output)
for the ITO default operator, set the password or provide

.rhosts

or

/etc/hosts.equiv

functionality. Note that the opc_op’s password

should be consistent for all managed nodes.

For example, the $HOME/.rhosts entry, where $HOME is the home
directory on the managed node, of the executing user:

<

management_server

> opc_op
