passwd_export cron job. Suchsynchronization can only be achieved
by separately modifying a user's DCE and HP-UX passwords to be
the same.
DCE passwords are global to a network, whereas the Commercial
Security passwords are local to a single system. To change a password
when using DCE with Commercial Security, first change it for HP-UX
and DCE on one system. This can be done in one step with the
passwd command, provided the new password chosen is acceptable
to both HP-UX and DCE. Then change it on all the other HP-UX
systems on which you have an account by using the passwd
command with the -r option.
NOTE Users logged in to a foreign cell cannot use the passwd command to
change a password.
