Manuals

If you order the AIX® Expansion Pack CD, you can access the network authentication service documentation. Although the manuals are written for the AIX, Solaris, and Linux® operating systems, you can use many of the network authentication service commands on the i5/OS® operating system. When you install the network authentication service product on your AIX system, the documentation is installed in the /usr/lpp/krb5/doc/pdf/en_US directory.

In addition, if you install the Network Authentication Enablement product (5722-NAE) on your system, you can access the same manuals in both PDF and HTML formats from the /usr/lpp/krb5/doc/ directory.

You can find this documentation in the AIX 5L™ Expansion Pack and Bonus Pack CD.
