Dear SCO Customer, Support Level Supplement (SLS) ptf7411b, the UnixWare 7 passwd Display Patch, addresses a problem where passwd -sa displays incorrect information about the status of passwords. For example, passwd -sa may list users as locked (LK) when they are unlocked. SLS ptf7411b also provides a new passwd binary to address a problem with ttymon when logging into accounts that are configured with "Force the user to change the password at the next login". A login to these accounts is not possible if the ttymon is configured with PPP support (-P option to ttyadm). For example, this message will repeatedly occur: Welcome to UnixWare 7.1.0 The system's name is BLUTACK. login: test UX:login: ERROR: You don't have a password. UX:login: TO FIX: Choose one. UX:passwd: ERR: Sorry SLS ptf7411b contains the following file: /usr/bin/passwd Software Notes and Recommendations ---------------------------------- SLS ptf7411b should only be installed on: UnixWare 7 Release 7.1.0 Installation Instructions ------------------------- 1.
