reating an empty passwd file can disable native authentication in Splunk. This can be achieved by creating an empty file named passwd in the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc directory. This method is useful if you want to use an external authentication provider such as LDAP or SAML for user authentication. Option D (nativeAuthentication=false in authentication.conf) can also be used to disable native authentication, but it is a more granular option as it only disables certain parts of the native authentication system.
