.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBsconadm\fR utility is a command-line version of the Basic Registration
GUI. In the first form of the command in the SYNOPSIS, \fBsconadm\fR uses the
\fBregister\fR subcommand to register a host with a registration server. In the
second form, \fBsconadm\fR uses the \fBproxy\fR subcommand to configure all of
the components for software update to use an HTTP web proxy.
.sp
.LP
The parameters specified with \fB-u\fR, \fB-e\fR (or \fB-E\fR), \fB-h\fR,
\fB-p\fR, and \fB-x\fR override values specified in your registration profile.
A template for this profile, owned by root, with read-only permissions, is
stored in \fB/usr/lib/breg/data/RegistrationProfile.properties\fR. See
\fBregistration_profile\fR(4).
.sp
.LP
For the \fBproxy\fR subcommand, the proxy password is stored in the
\fBRegistrationProfile.properties\fR file, available if proxy authentication is
needed. Storage in the profile prevents proxy passwords from being exposed as
part of a listing of processes on a system.
