Changing casuser password on solaris

xshant · ‎08-18-2010

Dear *,

I have intalled LMS 3.2 or solaris 10. The installation is successfull. Now i want to change the password of casuser but i am unable to find the resetCasuser. Seems like file is missing. Any idea why? NMSROOT\setup\support\resetCasuser

Is there anyway i can get this file from somewhere and copy it in solaris? Since this is a solaris account what willl happen if i change the password from solaris itself?

Thanks,

Aamir

Hi Aamir:

There is no facility or program to change the password of casuser because one cannot log into the box as casuser; that account has no shell.

grep casuser /etc/passwd
casuser:x:101:100:CiscoUser:/opt/CSCOpx:/dev/null

Even if you change the Solaris user password, that account still can't be logged into.

So the question is do i need to know the password of the casuser? plus it seems that the whole SUPPORT folder (NMSROOT\setup\support) is missing in solaris.

Thanks,
