Environment
Novell Modular Authentication Service (NMAS) version 3.1.2 and prior on NetWare
Situation
Running NMASINST on NetWare dumps the command line to
SYS:/ETC/NMAS/NMASINST.LOG. If the admin account and password
are supplied on the command line, then the admin and password
will be visible in the NMASINST.LOG.
Resolution
This problem can be resolve in two ways:
1. Apply NMAS version 3.1.3 available in Security Services 2.0.4 no longer dumps the command line to the NMASINST.LOG.
2. NMASINST can be run without the pwd option so that the password is not included on the command line. The admin will be prompted for the password.
