Securing the HP-UX AAA Server
Performing the steps in this section increases the security of your HP-UX AAA Server
installation. HP recommends all customers perform the steps in“Changing the Default
HP-UX AAA Server Settings ” (page 62). Perform the steps in “Environment Specific
Security Procedures ” (page 63) depending on your environment.
Changing the Default HP-UX AAA Server Settings
The following information explains how to increase the security of your HP-UX AAA
Server by changing some of the default settings. HP recommends that all customers
change the default values.
Changing the Default Tomcat User Name and Password
All Tomcat servers come with the same default user name and password. You must
change the user name and password to unique values.
Complete the following steps to change the Tomcat user name and password:
1. Open /opt/hpws/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml.
2. Look for entries with the roles=“tomcat” string. These entries are valid Tomcat
user names and passwords.
3. Modify the file to include only the user name and password you want to use. Use
the following format:
<user username="new user name" password="new password"
roles="tomcat"/>
