Using pdweb With Bastille
HP Bastille is an OS hardening and lockdown tool that enhances the security of an HP-UX system.
It configures daemons, system settings, and firewalls to be more secure. It turns off unnecessary
services such as pwgrd and printing, and it configures client software such as rcp and rlogin
to be more secure. HP Bastille also helps create chroot jails that limit the vulnerability of common
Internet services such as Web servers and Domain Name Servers (DNS).
To use pdweb in conjunction with HP Bastille, you must configure the system as follows:
1. Log in as root.
2. Enter the following command:
#cp /etc/opt/sec_mgmt/bastille/MANDMZ.config /etc/opt/sec_mgmt/bastille/config.
