TMA-AIX-4.3.2.13
Ensure timed is not in use
Description
The timed daemon implements the legacy UNIX time service. The UNIX time service is obsolete and has been replaced by NTP, it is recommended that the timed fileset be removed to reduce the potential attack surface. If time synchronization is required in your environment use xntp. Audit: the timed start line in /etc/rc.tcpip must be commented out and the timed subsystem must not be active.

Run the following command to remove the software: # /usr/sbin/installp -u bos.net.tcp.timed bos.net.tcp.server - OR - - IF - the bos.net.tcp.timed fileset is required as a dependency: Run the following script to stop and disable timed #!/usr/bin/ksh DAEMONS="timed" for l_daemon in $DAEMONS; do /usr/sbin/chrctcp -d $l_daemon /usr/bin/stopsrc -s $l_daemon done
