I have a customer who has a question regarding the availability of DCE SIA
and C2 coexisting. They are running:
Digital DCE V2.0a (Rev. 519) for Digital UNIX
Digital UNIX v4.0 (Rev. 386) with Patch OSF400-106
Here is an excerpt of a message I received:
The Manual entitled "Configuring the Digital DCE Kit" says on pg. 5-37 that
"The DCE SIA feature is not compatible with C2 security. If you run DCE
on a C2 system, DCE SIA must be disabled." (section 5.16.1)
I would like to understand this limitation better. Namely, it is my
understanding that the shadow password file comes with C2. This is an
important
feature for us and we would need to preserve it with the integrated login
facility that SIA provides. The extended auditing features would also
be highly desirable. It too might be necessary for us to use on machines
in our classified environment. Can you help us through this maze?
Why are they incompatible? When will this be resolved? Are there any
workarounds?
Thanks.
