Login Process in Solaris

Before you can get access to the environment, your Trusted Solaris system administrator and security administrator must set up a user account for you. The account gives you permission to use some of the computer facilities and contains identifying information, such as the username assigned to you and your user ID (UID). The username in conjunction with your password lets you log into the system. The user ID identifies all of your transactions as well as the files and directories that you own.

Identification - entering your username in the Username dialog box

Authentication - entering your password in the Password dialog box. A password is a private combination of keystrokes that validates your identity to the system. Since it is stored in an encrypted form, your password is not accessible by other users on the system. It is your responsibility to protect your password so that other users cannot use it to gain unauthorized access. Never write your password down or disclose it to anyone else, because a person with your password has access to all your data without being identifiable or accountable. Your initial password is supplied by your Trusted Solaris administrator.

Successful completion of identification and authentication confirms your right to use the system.

Message checking and session type selection -The Workstation Information dialog box displays the message of the day, provides account access information (so that you can check for any possible security breaches), and lets you specify the type of session: single-level or multilevel

Security level selection - setting the highest security level at which you intend to operate while in your session
