Greetings, all.
I have several scripts I run to perform "automatic" maintainance and profiling
on my storage pools. Some of these scripts have bits that require a real
admin logon (such as a BACK STG PREVIEW=YES) so I've heretofore run them
attended, and typed in userid and password. I'd really like them to be able
to run completely unattended, but I hate the thought of leaving ID and
password hanging around on a filesystem in plaintext.
Have any of you folks encountered and/or solved this problem on AIX?
Hmm.. An IP filter, permitting or forbidding admins access based on where
they're coming from might make this simpler..
