The first thing you have to do when implementing Netview security is
setting the admin password.
Otherwhise, the admin user will not be able to open nvsec_admin
application.

To disable security :
in /usr/OV/security/conf/sec.conf :
set the flag : SECURITY_LEVEL_FLAG=OFF

then

ovstop
ovstop nvsecd
ovstart

then

try again setting on security but do not forget to change the admin
password before exiting the nvsec_admin application.

Hope this help.

Cheers,

Hi
I did nvsec_admin and created a user with only certain ovw function and
then set security
on, as a result Nobody is able to logon and root can not run nvsec_admin
because it comes
up with an error.
How do I disable the security ?
This is urgent - please help.
Thanks
Vee
