NAME¶
afppasswd - AFP Random Number UAM password maintenance utility
SYNOPSIS¶
afppasswd [-acfn] [-p passwd file] [-u minimum uid]
DESCRIPTION¶
afppasswd creates and maintains an afppasswd file, which supplies the user credentials for the "Randnum exchange" and "2-Way Randnum exchange" User Authentication Modules.
afppasswd can either be called by root with parameters to manage all user credentials, or by local system users with no parameters to change their own AFP passwords.
Note
With this utility you can only change the passwords used by these two Random Number UAMs. As they provide only weak password encryption, their use is discouraged unless one has to support very old AFP clients that can not deal with the more secure "DHX" or "DHX2" UAMs.
EXAMPLE¶
Local user changing their own password:
example% afppasswd Enter NEW AFP password: (hidden) Enter NEW AFP password again: (hidden) afppasswd: updated password.
