<What version of unix?> AIX 5.1 <We use Solaris, and handle all of this at the OS level in /etc/profile prior to prior to exec'ing uv in the user's /.profile.>
I think this is too early in my process, since we have exec'ed the uv shell, and started the application. They have passed the unix login check, but they fail the application's password checks.

We are using the following command from the application that monitors the fail/success of the login attempt at the application level. EXECUTE 'SH -c "chuser account_locked=true ':@logname:'"' This command works great, but then every user needs to be a member of group 'security', or give everyone access to execute the command, both of which are a no-no. Is there a way to give the application access rights to group security? Is there another way of doing this? Thanks in advance!
