new_pam_app
Use the new_pam_app
command to create a new PAM application right for the current zone and set the new PAM application as the currently selected PAM application in memory. The new PAM application has no field values set.
The new_pam_app
does not save the new PAM application to Active Directory. To save the PAM application right, you must first set at least the “application” field using set_pam_field
, then use save_pam_app
. If you don’t save a new PAM application, it will disappear when you select a new PAM application or when the ADEdit session ends.
You can only use the new_pam_app
to create PAM application rights if the currently selected zone is a classic4 or hierarchical zone. The command does not work in other types of zones.
