Applies to: All versions of DirectControl on HP-UX 11.31 or above
Problem:
Logging in using SSH (stock or Centrify OpenSSH) from a HP-UX machine with a username more than 8 characters fails.
In sshd debug trace, you may get :
PAM: pam_setcred(): No account present for user
And when you run "lugadmin" will return:
Config not found:
/etc/default/lugname file does not exist.
Cause:
Long user and group name feature is not enabled on HP-UX.
Resolution:
You can enable the long user and group name feature by doing the following:
1. Stop pwgrd:
/sbin/init.d/pwgr stop
2. Enable logn user and group name feature:
lugadmin -e
(/etc/default/lugname will be created)
3. Start pwgrd:
/sbin/init.d/pwgr start
Note:
For trusted HPUX, it says:
"Do not enable long usernames on trusted system configurations"
