If you are not root make sure that the encrypted password's rights are
not rwx for root only. I ran into the same problem when I implemented TDP
for Lotus Domino on our AIX machines.

Hi *'SM'ers,

I installed TDP 3.1.0.5 on a TSM-Client 3.7.20 (AIX 4.3.3).
After some starting problems the client is now able to backup.

But now I've got the following problem:

At my dsm.sys file in /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin I set the
passwordaccess to prompt. All works fine.
But when I change the passowordaccess to generate the passwordverification
fails. The passwordrequired parameter at the util-file is set to no (like
it is discribed at the documentation).

So, I changed the password for the client at the server. I start dsmc with
root-user and tipe the new password. So far so good.
Now I run the command 'backint -p initSYS.utl -f password' to set the
password for TDP. But it failes.

Are there any ideas why my normal dsmc session works and the backint call
failed?

TIA

Wolfgang
