You have to put your event command in a script which issues nvauth for the root
user before execut8ing the event command

Subject:  Ruleset Problem




Hi all, I have Netview 5.1.2 , AIX 4.3.2.   I have implemented a ruleset which
sends a customized event using the " event "  command when some special
condition occurs ;  I have had problems since I  activated  the Netview security
because the rule can not send the event , due to nvsecd rejects the event
command execution if the root user is not logged in Netview.
How can I configure Netview to allow the ruleset to send the events  with no
root user logged in Netview?

Thanks,
