secauthmigrate(8)					     secauthmigrate(8)

NAME
       secauthmigrate  -  Convert  ULTRIX auth(5) authentication data to auth‐
       cap(4) authentication data (Enhanced Security)

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/secauthmigrate	 [options] files

OPTIONS
       Indicate successful conversions on standard output.  Give a long	 usage
       message.

DESCRIPTION
       The  secauthmigrate  utility  reads records from the specified files or
       from standard input (-). These records must be formatted	 according  to
       the ULTRIX auth(Section 5) format. These can be generated by getauth on
       ULTRIX,	or  (for  the  Hesiod/BIND  master  host)  can	be  found   in
       /var/dss/namedb/src/auth.  For each authentication record found, secau‐
       thmigrate will attempt to find a matching username record for the given
       UID.  If that translation can be performed, an authcap(4) entry for the
       extended profile information for that user is created from the data  in
       the  input  record.  If the extended profile entry already exists, then
       the converted entry is left  in	/tcb/files/auth/?/username:ULT	rather
       than overwrite the entry in /tcb/files/auth/?/username.

       If  ROOTDIR  is	defined,  it  is  used instead of / as the root of the
       directory tree when creating the /tcb/files/auth/?/* files.

ERRORS
       No BSD style (/etc/passwd or NIS data) account exists. If you need this
       account,	 create	 a  BSD	 style	account	 and run secauthmigrate again.
       Extended profile already exists. Compare the  files  to	determine  the
       differences.   If  the differences are not related to the password, use
       the dxaccounts program to update the existing file. If the  differences
       are   related   to   the	  password,   disable	logins	and  edit  the
       /tcb/files/auth/?/username file.	 The option you provided was not  rec‐
       ognized.	 The  options are -v and -U.  The -U option provides extensive
       help.

FILES
       ${ROOTDIR}/tcb/files/auth/?/*
