PURPOSE

tpusrmod - modify user information on the system

SYNOPSIS

TUXCONFIG=tuxconfig tpusrmod  [-u uid ] [-g gid]
  [-c client_name] [-l new_login] [-p] usrname

DESCRIPTION

Invoking tpusrmod modifies a principal (user or domain) entry to the TUXEDO security data files. This information is used for TUXEDO System/T authentication with the AUTHSVR(5) server. A TUXEDO configuration with SECURITY set to USER_AUTH, ACL, or MANDATORY_ACL must be created before running this command successfully.

The system file entries created with this command have a limit of 512 characters per line. Specifying long arguments to several options may exceed this limit.

The following options are available:

-u uid

The new user identification number. uid must be a positive decimal integer below 128K. uid must be unique within the list of existing identifiers for the application.

-g gid

An existing group's integer identifier or character-string name. It redefines the user's group membership.

-c client_name

A string of printable characters that specifies the new client name for the user. It may not contain a colon (:) or a newline (\n).

-l new_login

A string of printable characters that specifies the new login name of the user. It may not contain a colon (:), pound sign (#), or a newline (\n). The user name must be unique within the list of existing users for the application. This option also implies the -p option to re-set the password.

-p

tpusrmod will modify the password for the indicated user. The administrator is prompted for a new password to be associated with the user.

usrname

A string of printable characters that specifies the name of an existing user to be modified.

Before running this command, the application must be configured using either the graphical user interface or tmloadcf(1). tpusradd must be be run on the configuration MASTER if the application is not active; if active, this command can run on any active node.

See AUTHSVR(5) for further information about per-user authentication and configuring administrator permissions.

PORTABILITY

This command is available only on non-/WS sites running TUXEDO System/T Release 6.0 or later.

The tpusrmod command exits with a return code of 0 upon successful completion.
