Furniss) Organization: WINCO, INEL, Idaho Lines: 12 SCO Unix 3.2 dosent use /etc/shadow. SCO 3.2 uses /tcb/files/auth/?/username If you want to try it, take out the passwd (encoded), at this location. SCO unix 3.2 uses a trusted database type system to meet C.2 security standards. I,ve not had time to really mess with it yet, and I,m no expert on the tcb, but SCO unix 3.2 IS a MUCH more secure Unix then I,ve ever seen before. (standard disk-claimer) Rick Furniss 208-526-3185
