- I run a public access machine and am planning on putting an Indigo
- in its place. Due to the fact that most anyone can get access
- to this machine, I NEED shadow passwords.
- In the past users have cracked passwords and tried to hack my machine.
- The best defence is to make it hard for them to get untracable access.
- Shodow passwords is a BIG part in this.
- I am amazed that IRIX does not have this option.
- Has anyone got any suggestion on what I should do?
-
- If IRIX is suppose to be SVR4 by the end of the year does this mean
- it will have C2 security? I am sure SVR4 has that.
