NAME
convauth - convert system authorization databases
SYNOPSIS
/usr/tcb/bin/convauth [-O] [-d dblist] [-q] [-r] [-u uid] [-v] [-H]
FLAGS
- -d dblist
-
Specifies which databases to convert. Choose one or more of the letters
d, f, p, t, or v.
-
d - /etc/auth/system/default to
/etc/auth/system/default.db
-
f - /etc/auth/system/files to /etc/auth/system/files.db
-
p - /tcb/files/auth/?/* to
/tcb/files/auth.db and /var/tcb/files/auth.db
-
t - /etc/auth/system/ttys to /etc/auth/system/ttys.db
-
v - /etc/auth/system/devassign to /etc/auth/system/devassign.db
-
If no -d option is given, the default database list is as though
-d pt were specified.
- -q
-
Suppresses non-error output.
- -r
-
Keeps all migrated user-profile entries in /tcb/files/auth.db rather
than /var/tcb/files/auth.db.
- -u uid
-
Specifies the minimum general user UID.
User-profile entries with uids lower than this value (default 100)
are written to the /tcb/files/auth.db file, and profile entries with
UIDs greater than or equal to this value are written to the
/var/tcb/files/auth.db file.
- -v
-
Gives more verbose messages.
- -O
-
Reverts from *.db files to old-style databases.
- -H
-
Prints a help messages and exits with no further processing.
DESCRIPTION
The convauth utility is used to convert existing ASCII system
authorization database files to DB format for faster access and
updates. In the case of the ttys and user-profile data, this
greatly improves the performance of login when using ENHANCED
security.
EXAMPLES
The default conversion done by secsetup to convert the user profiles
and terminals information:
# convauth
The same conversion explicitly showing the default databases and
general user UID assumptions:
# convauth -d tp -u 100
Conversion of just the device assignment data:
# convauth -d v
