Enabling the Administrator's Account

Issue the following command in selang so that the administrator's account can access the CA Access Control server:

auth TERMINAL workstation_name acc(a) uid(administrator_name)
workstation_name

Is the machine name of the Provisioning Server or CA IdentityMinder clients.

administrator_name

Is the administrator's account that was created in Creating the System Administrator's Account.

For example:

auth TERMINAL cacc.la.com acc(a) uid(accadmin)

Note: To successfully create an Provisioning Account on the CA Access Control Solaris machine, you have to authorize the two machines as follows:

auth TERMINAL workstation_name acc(a) uid(administrator_name) Workstation name - Provisioning Server name & Access Control Solaris machine 

If you are not authorizing the Access Control Solaris machine, an error message "You are not allowed to administer this site from terminal (ACC Control Sol Machine)" is thrown during the Provisioning account creation.
