We have several account maintenance scripts that were written under Tru64
V4.0F, to enable the UNIX account maintenance tasks to be distributed to our
support group, and run without the GUI, dxaccounts.
The account re-enable script no longer works.
Accounts can become disabled if:
1 The number of unsuccessful logins exceeds the max number of
unsuccessful logins setting
2 The system administrator locks the account
3 The account lifetime is exceeded
Under V5.1, the /usr/sbin/usermod -x administrative_lock_applied=0 username
only re-enable an account that was locked by the administrator(reason 3
above).
This usermod command under V4.0F would fix reasons 1 and 2 and 3 above.
Does anyone know how else I can script an account re-enable?
Please respond to me directly and I will summarise.
TIA,
David
