[oliverbeat]

Hi guys,

Need help. I would like to create users & passwd automatically through a script. and for the password I would like to use the tools chpass and setpasswd but I don't where to find them and how to install them (do I need to install C or other things) (on my last job there were already installed). I anyone can help me it will be great.

Other help - I would like to install a NIM Master and never did it before so If someone have a good document it will be helpfully.

Sorry for my english

Thanks in advance

try

for sudo. You may have to try a version compiled for 5.2 or 5.1

Although NIM is not that complex, the IBM two day NIM course is to be recommended. If you want to do NIM properly and build a good, reliable NIM infrastructure then I'd recommend doing this course. If you try to learn it yourself you will probably find it frustrating.

Hi
Thanks for your help.

Well I have some knowledge about NIM servers and CSM but I only defined the nim client. The NIM Master was already done by someone else.
Thanks
