HP-UX AAA Server A.08.00.01 Administrator's Guide
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• After using the sample reference implementation and before deploying your
implementation in a production environment, you must change the default
passwords for database user, test user, and the shared secret of the test user.
• If the shared secret provided by the token vendor is in ASCII format, edit the
/etc/opt/aaa/sqlaccess.config file to change the following entry in the
RetrieveUserAndToken SQL action:
DBC(RAD_TOKENS_TABLE.shared_secret, 128, CHAR) FUNC(AAASetConvertedHexToBinaryString)
to
DBC(RAD_TOKENS_TABLE.shared_secret, 128, CHAR) RAD(Otp-Shared-Secret, REPLY)
and reload the configuration changes.
If you are using the RetrieveToken SQL action, then the following entry must
be modified as follows:
DBC(shared_secret, 128, CHAR) FUNC(AAASetConvertedHexToBinaryString)
to
DBC(shared_secret, 128, CHAR) RAD(Otp-Shared-Secret, REPLY)
and reload the configuration changes.

Advanced OTP Authentication Configuration Concepts
The HP-UX AAA Server processes all OTP authentication requests depending on the
bit mask set in the OTP-ActionId attribute in the request-ingress.grp file.
You can configure the HP-UX AAA Server to perform various OTP authentication
tasks by setting the bit masks in the OTP-ActionId attribute and by configuring other
configuration files. For more information on the OTP-ActionId attribute, see
Configuring OTP Authentication on the HP-UX AAA Server 183
