Changing the number of allowed password entry attempts

The Kaspersky Security Center Linux user can enter an invalid password a limited number of times. After the limit is reached, the user account is blocked for one hour.

By default, the maximum number of allowed attempts to enter a password is 10. You can change the number of allowed password entry attempts, as described in this section.

To change the number of allowed password entry attempts:

  1. On the Administration Server device, run a Linux command line.
  2. For the klscflag utility, run the following command:

    sudo /opt/kaspersky/ksc64/sbin/klscflag -fset -pv klserver -n SrvSplPpcLogonAttempts -t d -v N

    where N is a number of attempts to enter a password.

  3. To apply the changes, restart the Administration Server service.

The maximum number of allowed password entry attempts is changed.
