Issue/Introduction
Sometimes, when logging in to a Unix endpoint using the Unix Authorization Broker (UnAB), we may need to validate the user against the local windows security instead of using the Active Directory one.
Can I force the user validation against the local security instead of the Active Directory one?
Environment
PAM Server Control 14.0 SP1 UnAB (Unix Authorization Broker)
Resolution
Use the command opt/CA/uxauth/bin/uxconsole -map <username> -local -force -v
-force Specifies to force user mapping and overwrite existing mapping or migration status or delete user mapping
-local Specifies to set the user account as a local exception. If you specify a user as local exception, UNIX Authentication Broker does not manage the user account, although an identical user account may exist in the Active Directory.
