HP-UX Role-Based Access Control B.11.31.04 Release Notes
1 New in HP-UX RBAC B.11.31.04
HP-UX RBAC B.11.31.04 delivers the following new content:
• The introduction of a set of privilege shells, allowing a non-root user to automatically invoke
privrun when needed by simply configuring a privilege shell as their default shell.
• Integration with HP System Management Homepage (SMH), allowing for the management
of local RBAC roles, authorizations, and commands through the Web interface of SMH
Version 2.2 and higher.
• Integration of access control logic directly into select commands, including passwd(1) and
userdbset(1m). This allows an administrator to assign capabilities in a much more granular
fashion.
