 Name

    mkconspw - add server name and password to filesharing conspw (client
    password file)

 Syntax


    mkconspw [server name] [passwd]


 Description

    The mkconspw command adds the server machine name and password to the
    client password file /usr/lib/lm/conspw.  When a local user uses the net-
    work, the local system attempts to establish a trusted connection with
    the server machine.  Only XENIX-NET servers allow trusted access.

    The client sends its own machine name to the server, along with the pass-
    word contained in the /usr/lib/lm/conspw file entry for that server. The
    XENIX-NET server then checks its file /usr/lib/xnet/cdf for the client's
    machine name and password.  If the client's machine name and password are
    contained in the server's /usr/lib/xnet/cdf file, the client is allowed
    trusted access.

    Use a text editor to remove a server name and password from the conspw
    file.

    If mkconspw is invoked without arguments, the user is prompted for the
    information.

 Notes

    For changes to the password file to take effect, the client must be
    stopped and restarted.
