4.4. Configuring System Login

No additional configuration is required to enable system login on AIX. Use the following tests to ensure that the configuration is working correctly:

On the system console, log in as an IPA user. After you have logged in, open a shell and run the following command:

$ id (ensure that the user IDs and group IDs are correct)

If this test fails, refer to the Troubleshooting section in the Administration Guide for information on how to locate any problems.

Note

By default, the admin user is given /bin/bash as the shell to use and /home/admin as the home directory. You may need to install bash (or link sh to /bin/bash or modify admin to use /bin/sh or a shell available in all of your systems) to be able to log in.
