-f
list
—CSUtil.exe generates a PAC file for each username contained in
the file specified, where
list
represents the full path and filename of the
list of usernames.
Lists of usernames should contain one username per line with no
additional spaces or other characters.
For example, if list.txt in d:\temp\pacs contains the following usernames:
seaniemop
jwiedman
echamberlain
and you ran
CSUtil.exe -t -f d:\temp\pacs\list.txt
, CSUtil.exe generates
three PAC files:
seaniemop.pac
,
jwiedman.pac
, and
echamberlain.pac
.
Tip
You can also specify domain-qualified usernames, using the format
DOMAIN
\
username
. For example, if you specify
ENIGINEERING\augustin
,
Cisco Secure ACS generates a PAC file name
ENGINEERING_augustin.pac
.
•
-passwd
password
—CSUtil.exe uses the password specified, rather than the
default password, to protect the PAC files it generates. The password you
specify is required when the PACs it protects are loaded into an EAP-FAST
end-user client.
Note
We recommend that you use a password you devise rather than the
default password.
PAC passwords
can contain any character
,
are
between four and 128
characters long, and
case sensitive. While CSUtil.exe does not enforce strong
password rules, we
recommend that you use a strong password, that is, your
PAC password
should:
–
Be very long.
–
Contain uppercase and lowercase letters.
–
Contain numbers in addition to letters.
–
Contain no common words or names.
