Locking User In Solaris

Tuesday, 4 November 2008 in Solaris, UNIX

Locking user in Solaris is easy, and I wonder why should I write actually. But anyway, just in case if you bother to read, this is how.

Status of normal account is PS (Password Set)

jebat8#passwd -s gojilla
gojilla PS

Lock it using this command

passwd -l

jebat8#passwd -l gojilla
passwd: password information changed for gojilla

Now the account is locked. User can’t access the system as it used to be.

jebat8#passwd -s gojilla
gojilla LK
