TMA-BIND-2.3

Lock the BIND User Account

MoyenneNiveau 1Automatiséebind

Description

The user account under which BIND runs should not have a valid password, but should be locked. The audit reads /etc/shadow (root) and requires the password field of the named (or bind) account to start with ! or * (locked, what passwd -S reports as LK/L).
