directory for the new user. The home directory must be /var/emhome/<username>.

Note
When you remove a user, that user can no longer log in although the user’s home directory
remains on the system. To remove the user’s directory, use the Unix shell.
Also, since the user accounts for SNMP are maintained separately, you may need to delete
the SNMP account for the user, if there is one. For more information, see “Managing SNMP
Users” on page 263.
Managing and Using S/Key
S/Key is a one-time password system that you can enable to protect the password of admin or
monitor accounts when users connect through Telnet or FTP. You must first enable S/Key and
then enter an S/Key secret password. After you configure the S/Key for a user, a sequence
number and a seed appear before each TELNET or FTP password prompt. Enter these two
items as arguments to the S/Key program running on a secure machine. After you enter these
arguments and your S/Key secret key, the key program produces a password that you use to log
in only once.
