sysck files for LPP's

[Benson I. Margulies]

A properly formatted lpp should include an inventory file which is a
complete set of sysck stanzas for all the files it installs.

IBM dosen't seem to supply any automated means of generating this,
except for the awful crock I'm about to describe.

sysck -a seems to be the right thing, but there is no documented
control argument that writes the new stanza's into a file other than
/etc/security/sysck.cfg.

Surely IBM has some tool with which it generates the gobs of sysck
stanzas on each and every installation tape.

I thought of this:

on some machine, temporarily move /etc/security/sysck.cfg to one side.
then run sysck -a on the installation hierarchy.
then move the thus-generated sysck.cfg to someplace else,
and put the old sysck.cfg back.

Surely there's a better way, or there should be.
