SYNOPSIS

       [ ] [ ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  HP-UX Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration tool ( ) is used to configure suditing sub-system and, view and configure system-
       wide and per-user (Local users and NIS users) values of security attributes. It also gives information about account locks.

       The HP-UX Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration tool provides both Web-based and terminal user interface (for Security	Attributes
       Configuration only).  The Web-based interface is launched through the HP System Management Homepage.

       Superuser  privileges  are required to access the HP-UX Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration tool. A user who does not have supe-
       ruser privileges has read-only access to the System Defaults area in the HP-UX Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration tool and can-
       not modify or reset per-user values.

       The terminal user interface is invoked if any of the following conditions are true:

	      o  The command is invoked with option.

	      o  The environment variable is not set.

       The Web-based interface is launched if all the following conditions are true:

	      o  The command is invoked with option.

	      o  The environment variable is set.

	      o  The command is available on the system.

       If the Web-based interface cannot be launched, invokes the terminal user interface.

   Options
       recognizes the following options:

	      Forces a client browser to be used in less secure ways.

			The  option  forces the client browser to be used or started, even when the X-traffic between the X-server and the Mozilla
			browser is not secure.

			Use this option only when you are sure the network traffic between the host where Mozilla is running and the host  in  the
			DISPLAY variable is secure.

			If cannot start the Web browser, the terminal interface is started.

			When the HP-UX Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration Web interface is invoked by SAM, the option is used.

	      If a privileged user (root) executes the
			command  with  the  option,  a temporary login bypass key is generated.  The bypass key enables the user to access the Web
			interface without having to provide login information again.

			When the HP-UX Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration Web interface is invoked by SAM, the option is used.

	      Opens the terminal interface for setting system-wide and
			per-user values of security attributes regardless of the current setting of the environment variable.

       You can also start the HP-UX Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration tool using one of the following methods:

	      o  Invoke and select the Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration (character mode) functional area to launch the terminal user
		 interface and the Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration (Web-based Interface) to launch the Web-based tool

	      o  Invoke  the  HP-UX Auditing and Security Attributes Configuration tool Web interface by typing the URL in the address bar of your
		 browser, where hostname is the name of the server

	      o  Launch the HP-UX Systems Insight Manager on the server and select the Auditing and Security Attributes  Configuration	tool  from
		 Configure -> HP-UX Configuration menu
