Applies to: DirectControl 4.2.2, 4.3 on AIX only.
Problem:
On AIX machines the local users and "root" are able to use crontab without problems, but for Active Directory users it fails with the following message:
$ crontab -e
crontab: you are not authorized to use cron. Sorry.
Cause:
This is due to adclient setting the default value of the AIX user attribute "daemon" to false.
Workaround:
Search for the aix.user.attr.daemon parameter in /etc/centrifydc/centrifydc.conf and ensure that it is set to true if present. If the parameter does not exist, add the following line to the file:
aix.user.attr.daemon: true
Then run adreload.
Resolution:
Fixed in DirectControl 4.4.0
