Password Management

The only effective change required for password management is to append the server_policy parameter to the PAM_AUTHTOK_STORE module. When you use the server_policy parameter, the module will update passwords for local users (if found) or access the LDAP store accordingly. If the module cannot find a user either locally or in the LDAP store, then the system will provide an appropriate error message.

When you have finished configuring the Solaris host, continue to Step 5: Verifying that PAM is Interoperating with the LDAP Store.
