UNX223 - Unix Security Supplement

Whilst installation of this software remedies a number of problems with the C2 security, it does prevent new users being added to the system on MCA machines. This problem is easily worked around by adding a new user but not creating his/her home directory through the sysadmsh menu. The home directory can then be created by root and the permissions altered manually to produce a fully installed user.

Options from sysadmsh are: Accounts -> User -> Create then do not use the defaults but specify the configuration and select "Do not Create" for the home directory.
