HP-UX AAA Server A.07.01 Administrator's Guide

Synchronizing the AAA Server with the ACE/Server
After the first successful SecurID Authentication, the AAA server will save a file called
securid in the AAA server configuration directory (/etc/opt/aaa by default). The
securid file contains secret information required for further ACE/Server authentication
requests. If the AAA server has been reinstalled, or if this file is not present in the AAA
server configuration directory, perform the following steps to synchronize the AAA
server with the ACE/Server.
1. From the Client menu, select Edit Client.
2. Select the client that you need to edit
3. From the Edit Client screen, make sure that the check box for Sent Node Secret is
deselected as shown in the following figure. When this check box is deselected,
the ACE/Server sends the securid file in the AAA server during the next SecurID
authentication attempt initiated by the AAA server.
