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

31 Configuration Files
The Server Manager interface configures most of the HP-UX AAA Server’s configuration
files. However, some features of the HP-UX AAA Server cannot be configured through
the Server Manager interface. If you want to define policy, vendor-specific attributes,
or logging behavior, you must manually edit the configuration files. The information
in this chapter is provided as a reference for the configuration files that Server Manager
cannot configure.
Following lists the configuration files that you must manually edit from the command
line:
• db_srv.opt — see “To Configure and Run the db_srv Daemon ” (page 101)
• radius.fsm — see Chapter 24: “Customizing the HP-UX AAA Server Using the
Finite State Machine” (page 270)
• “The dictionary File ” (page 385)
• “The las.conf File ” (page 389)
• “The vendors File ” (page 392)
• “The log.config File ” (page 393)
The following is a list of the configuration files that you can edit from the command
line after editing them with Server Manager. Some features are not configurable through
Server Manager, therefore additional command line editing is sometimes required:
• “The aaa.config File” (page 375)
• “The clients File” (page 380)
• “The users File ” (page 381)
• “sqlaccess.config Sample File” (page 212)
NOTE: If the configuration files in /etc/opt/aaa directory are incorrectly configured
or deleted during the course of configuring AAA Server, you can get the original
configuration files as provided during installation from the /opt/aaa/newconfig/
etc/opt/aaa directory.
HUP Processing
The HUP signal (kill -HUP) provides the ability to update some of your configuration
while the AAA server is running. The signal tells the AAA server a process a change
occurred and to read configuration files again. The HUP signal will read the following
files:
• users
• clients
• authfile
• aaa.config
