4-6 CHAPTER 4: NAME SERVER DATABASE UTILITIES
Change Database
Password
This menu command enables you to change database password. Since
every user's password in the database is encrypted with database password,
precaution should be taken with this command, especially when the
dbserver daemon is running.
After changing the database password, terminate and restart the dbserver
daemon so that the user login request can be properly authenticated.
4.5. PATH When dbutil starts, it checks for the setting of environment variable
"DBPATH" to determine the directory to create or to open database files. If
the variable is set, it assumes that the database is under the DBPATH
directory. Otherwise, it assumes that the database files are under the
directory where dbutil starts.
A list of dbutil error messages may be found in Appendix A.
Please enter your choice: 8
Please note that if dbserver is currently running, after changing
database password, dbserver will not be able to authenticate user login
properly.
Please terminate and restart dbserver after database password has
changed.
