HP-UX AAA Server A.08.01 administrator's guide (T1428-90072, May 2010)

33 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:
• radius.fsm — see Chapter 26: “Customizing the HP-UX AAA Server Using the
Finite State Machine” (page 396)
• “The dictionary File ” (page 531)
• “The las.conf File ” (page 535)
• “The vendors File ” (page 538)
• “The log.config File ” (page 539)
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 520)
• “The clients File” (page 526)
• “The users File ” (page 528)
• “sqlaccess.config Sample File” (page 343)
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
