KB-0073: Creating a local override account on AIX

Authentication Service ,

Question: 

How to create a local override account on AIX


Answer:

The default local override account, root@localhost, is not supported on AIX. You can, however, create another user account with the UID 0 and a different name, for example, toor, and use this user account as the local override account. For more information about using a local override account, see the Centrify DirectControl Administrator's Guide.
