Chapter 9

Installing HP-UX RBAC

IMPORTANT If you are installing HP-UX RBAC B.11.23.02 on a system with HP-UX RBAC

B.11.23.01 installed, the installation procedure overwrites the existing

B.11.23.01 database ﬁles if the B.11.23.01 ﬁles have not been modiﬁed. If you

installed HP-UX RBAC B.11.23.01 and modiﬁed the database ﬁles, the

B.11.23.02 installation procedure does not overwrite the existing B.11.23.01

conﬁguration.

IMPORTANT The HP-UX 11i Security Containment feature contains HP-UX RBAC

B.11.23.02 as one of its components. If you install the HP-UX 11i Security

Containment feature on a system that has HP-UX RBAC B.11.23.02 on it as an

independent software unit, you must reconﬁgure HP-UX RBAC before you can

use it with the Fine-Grained Privileges or Compartments component of the

HP-UX 11i Security Containment feature. Use the following command to

reconﬁgure HP-UX RBAC:

# swconfig -x reconfigure=true RBAC
